Jailbreak to COT

PAX had a chance to experience the toll an obstacle course has on your endurance. Interrupting your run with climbing over walls, getting down in the dirt, and having to use your upper body is taxes your system.

Prayers for all the new parents and babies on the way.
Prayers for everyone traveling.

Pebbles out.

18 (9 laces out) 9 brave Jockeys showed up at WEP to see what “Fast Horses” theme was all about.  They were relived when I said it didn’t mean more running….especially Boeheim since he ran 5 mi. just to show up!

The Thang:

Mosey half way around WEP then move to the center of the field for COP

SSH x 50, Imperial Squat walker x 25, Moroccan night club x 50, mountain climbers x 25, CDD x 15, Windmill x 15

Mosey to circle in parking lot and partner up.

Partner 1 worked abs with 6″ raises while partner 2 bunny hopped 10 then sprinted off to the top of the grassy hill to the beacon where he performed 10 merkins, all the while partner 1 held 6″. Rinse and repeat x 2.  LBC until 6 showed up.

Next: Partner 1 held elbow plank with legs open.  Partner 2 performed the “Heisman” 10 x then off to the top of the hill to perform 10 burpees, Partner 1 had to hold plank until partner 2 returned.  Rinse and repeat x 2 LBC til 6 showed up.

Next: Partner 1 heels to heaven while partner 2 ran to the beacon at the top of the hill to perform 20 jump lunges. Rinse and repeat x 2

Mosey to the base of the hill and partner up. Since Crab Cakes is a great youth football coach, he performed the “never quit” cheer, facing the giants style, and encouraged us to push ourselves.  Each partner had to piggy back the other, alternating at each lamp post until they reached the top.

Mosey to circle at parking lot for COT.

Sign up for oral cancer run this Saturday at 9:00, check link in weekly email. Be on the look out for the “silver bullet” workout for >60, encourage the wise to get plugged in.  Hope to launch in May. BRC(Brian Rabb running club) running club on Sundays at Baxter Starbucks 6:30.

Prayers for all of the injured F3ers, Menthol’s Grandmother who is 95, and grateful for her life.

YHC stood in for CSPAN this a.m. as he is still out on injured reserve.  In his absence, I decided to introduce Sally to the Rock Hill fellas this crisp February morning…and, of course, there were burpees.  The Thang…

Warm-up

• 20 Windmills
• 25 SSH
• 10 Merkins
• 20 Long slow squats
• 20 Moroccan Nightclubs
• Jog around the grounds to get the flow going

Here come’s Sally…

• Sally – push-up variety
• Technical difficulties in the replay so we took another lap while YHC figured it out…
• Sally – squat variety

Mosey to top of the “hill” at PHOP – bear crawl down the hill and then to the flat land (approx. 50 yards) and then sprint to parking lot.

Partner time (one partner does the exercise, the other takes a lap, cumulative numbers)

• 50 burpees / loop
• 100 jumping lunges / loop
• 200 LBCs / loop
• 50 burpees / loop

Short ab lab(Freddy Mercury, Russian twists, etc.) and some final stretching before COT.

Great group of fit fellas this morning – a true pleasure to share the gloom with them!  Announcements included Mud Run and Spartan Race info and prayers/praises for our injured PAX.  Padre took us out with some wonderful and heartfelt words as always.

After witnessing another chapter (the closing one?) in the Bellicheck/Brady Patriots dynasty in SB XLIX, 6 pax ignored #Cantore and posted for the official launch of #OldTown in Downtown Rock Hill.  Rain did not dissuade the pax or the RH Police Department in a balmy February gloom.  A new legacy begins!

The Thang

Brief warm up COP — SSHx20, Mtn climber x20, IWx12, Windmill x12

Short karaoke up to stop sign and back

Run across Dave Lyle to Cotton Factory, out 1 block down 2 blocks to Black Street, then left back to to hill along train tracks.

Line up in soggy field below track

Run to tracks at top of hill (more like bear crawl at when you reach the “alpine” section), then run down for 4 burpees at the bottom. Rinse and repeat 3x w/ 6, 8 and 10 burps at bottom.  (RHPD patrolling under train tressel as pax finish work)

Run back to town over to City Hall plaza

Three rounds of bunny hops up the stops with run back down and 10 monkey humpers at the bottom each time (RHPD spot lights scanning pax)

Run to parking garage with stops at every intersection for 10 merkins — 50 total along the way (RHPD swapping stories in middle of Main St as pax crank out merkins)

Time to get comfy in the garage…gonna be here a while

Pax take stairs to top, bear crawl across top deck, run down parking ramps, Freddie Ms x20 at bottom
Then run up ramps, bear crawl across top deck, run down stairs, Peter Parker x20 at bottom
Continue cycle until YHC calls a stop — ended up with 5 trips up/down I think
(RHPD out of his car, spooked by pax running down stairs in garage)

Run back home

COT

Naked man moleskin

Thanks to those who posted today…endless reasons to bail on this one…those who posted are true diehards and can understand the enthusiasm for this new AO.  Love this place!  No telling how many more mystery spots remain in the area…we’ve seen many in three trips.  POSH will keep scouting in daylight and surprising us in the gloom.

Pax did a great job keeping the pace throughout.  Not much chance to catch a breath as we stayed on the move, dodging puddles and cops.

YHC failed to post w/the Garmin so no idea how many miles we put in – probably 2.5 – 3.0.

Great words from Jekyll – shift the “I have to” to the “I get to” and let the gratitude flow.

CSPAN on Q

Disclaimer (needed it – read below) and discussion on keeping up, modify as needed, one FNG Andrew & Jackson said again Andrew Jackson

COT

Prayer & Praise, BOM, and a good discussion on the #StarfishF3 model.

Moleskin:

Always an honor to Q, here is everything in my notes:

• 2^nd F is the glue, and Rock Hill has a great group to build a Region from.
• PHOP needs more attendance on Wednesday – see Padre
• Posh is launching Monday morning workout, yes you can do it.
• If you haven’t Q’d , step up, it is what makes F3 work
• AO is first class, need to come back so we run all over this town.
• #HIM = High Impact Man
• #NoFatPants = Once you make the physical change of F3, burn the ship and those fat pants as there is no going back. A man who can’t get his 1^st F on track will never get his 2^nd and 3^rd Fs online.
• Read “Freed to Lead” here is the link: http://www.amazon.com/Freed-To-Lead-Unshackling-Modern-day-ebook/dp/B00JJQB2Z8
• Always make the 1^st F too hard, the 2^nd and 3^rd F will come only with deliberate leadership.

Appreciate the enthusiasm, and get your twitter account going, and follow me @CSPANF3

CSPAN – over & out
