Pre-Blast for The Reservation – 9/19 OCR Training

Date: 9/19

Time: 0600-0730

Location: Indian Land Elementary School – Doby’s Bridge Rd

We will be taking off early Saturday morning – 0600 sharp. Be there to get a preview of the course. Warm-up plus preview will take 10-15min.

We will be making several laps around the course until we reach 6.2 miles. This is to get a feel for how long the Mud Run course will be in October. So bring your running legs and mucho chesto to this workout as you will need it.

One very important item, we will be trying to group PAX into teams of 4 as much as possible. If we have odd numbers that may fall to 3 or even 2, but 4 is the goal.

Your team will end if either the time allotted (1.5 hrs) is over or if you have reached the 6.2 miles.

We will be out there to encourage each other, but this is training so go hard but don’t go 100%. Keep your focus on the obstacles and don’t get lazy – this is where injuries happen! Use your teammates to get over walls and to motivate you throughout the course.

Now get out and get dirty and be there Saturday @ 0600 for a true test of the Fall Mud Run! AYE!

3 Days Later…still feel it

  • QIC: Aquaman & Maximus
  • When: 08/29/15
  • Pax: Smuggler, Gears, Decibel, Cerrano, Bolt, CSPAN, Trucker, Rock Thrill, Willie, Zima, Fish Sticks, Thriller
  • Posted In: Alcatraz, The Fort

Life gets crazy but yet seems to pause just in time to enjoy a 60 minute beat down on the rock known as Alcatraz. I don’t have it in me to be all sorts of creative so I’ll get right to the point. Much like our first half Q Saturday, Aquaman, this will be all about speed, no lolly-gagging.

14 men in the PAX:
With Aquaman on Q and a disclaimer:
Warm up loop to the fire station and back for our rapid-fire COP.
SSH x 20
Seal Jack x 20
Rapid Squats x 20
Windmill x 15
Partner up and grab a paver per team: Line up at one end of the parking lot. Partner 1 declines feet on the paver so heels are on the block and toes pointed down while Partner 2 sprints to the end of the parking lot and back. Do this 3 times each. Partner 1 then leaps side to side over the paver staying low and placing one foot on the paver each time he jumps side to side; staying low. Partner 2 sprints to the end of the lot and back. Do this 3 times each. Take pavers back to their home and mosey to the steep neighborhood hill. OYO, 4 squats at the bottom of the hill, long jump with a flying squire halfway up the hill (killer) then sprint to the top for 4 monkey humpers then run back down. Reminder, Bolt doesn’t like a slow jog downhill. Do this 4 times and try to hold the Merlot down.

Hand off to Maximus to kill whatever you have left:
Form a circle in the field and do some ab rollers with some 10counts along the way for good measure. Get into a tighter circle to do a little Russian twist while passing a 35lb KB, counter clockwise then clockwise.
Head to the grass beyond the bases. Bear crawl to the next base and 10 Peter Parkers/10 Parker Peters. Reverse bear crawl back to the starting point for 10 more/10more.

Mosey to the playground and grab a partner. Partner 1 does 10 Pull Ups while Partner 2 does 20 CDD. Flapjack and repeat.
As a group and in cadence, slow dips and diamond merkins.
Mosey to the field and circle up:
Clock Merkins 1-6 then 6-1 followed by Mak Tar Jah
Ab Lab: Super Belly aka Pepper Mill
20 Second parachute
Grave Digger

Mosey to the other field and line up at one end:
Sprint to the first light pole for 10 Wide-Arm Merkins and 20 LBC. Sprint to the next light pole and do another 10/20. Sprint to the end for another 10/20. Sprint back All You Got then COT.

Aquaman and I had a lot of fun with this one and it is always awesome to see the creativity my man comes up with. Great job fellas.

Announcements: Way too many to write – read the weekly email. Take note of the Labor Day plans. Various 5K/10K options.

Prayers: Colombia team leaves Friday, Injured PAX, Illnesses in the family

As You Were.
AYE!

PREBLAST – THE FORT INVERGENCE, 3RD YEAR CELEBRATION!

Mark your calendar, get ‘a hall pass’ from the M, and come join your fellow Fort Mill area pax for our annual birthday party, The Fort Invergence!    This September will mark the third year anniversary of F3 in the Fort Mill area,  and we’ll celebrate it with a night of great food, fellowship, and a look back of all that we’ve done since September 2012.

What:  Fort Mill Invergence (3rd anniversary party)

When:  Friday, September 18, 5:30PM

Where:  Bruce T. Rush Pavillion at the Anne Springs Greenway

Bring:  Food, drink, chair, some cash (to cover the pavillion rental/donations to the F3 Foundation)

Use the link below to RSVP and list what food you will bring:

F3 The Fort Invergence RSVP/Dinner Sign Up

This years theme is  High Impact Man (#HIM).   Several members of the Fort area Pax will review our accomplishments over the past year, and talk about where we are going in the coming year.    Our F3 leaders, OBT and Dredd, will be there too to discuss the plans for F3 nationwide.

WE WANT TO HEAR FROM THE PAX!

Consistent with the HIM theme this year,  we would like to recognize those who had an impact on the pax or the Fort area region.   Was there someone who got you through a tough workout or run?  Who inspired you?  Who got you out at 5:15 each day when you didn’t feel like it?  Who supported you through a tough time?  Who made a difference this year?  Who exemplified the HIM?

Please submit the name of the person with a breif summary to  fcicciarello1@gmail.com.  We will either read them or post them during the event.  You can remain anonymous if you like.  This is not a contest or competition, but rather just a chance to share some good stories from the past year.

Burning the Ship!

Once a man embraces F3 principles, he no longer needs adjustable waist trousers to accommodate his yo-yo waistline.  Bring in the clothes that no longer fit you. We will be celebrating the war and donating these clothes to a good cause.  Lay down the pogo and stick it to the 40 that comes with it!

There will be weekly Twitter updates as the date gets closer.  This is great event and one you won’t want to miss!  Hope to see you all there.

I hope Bogey and Popeye made it to the bathroom since both nearly Elvised during the workout. Great job York and Burgundy being our gazelles today. It wouldn’t surprise me if both of you went for an extended run or followed today’s workout with a trip to the gym (#BeastMode). Excellent leadership by Riddler taking care of our 6 today. I see River Rat and Turbine getting stronger every week. You guys are all doing the right things and I’m proud to call you brothers.

Remember that “A cord of 3 strands is not easily broken.” Continue to rely on God and stick with your brothers. Between you, Christ, and other men – you can overcome anything!

Below are the outcomes this week:

Every man improved from last week. Our newcomers to the BoP were Mugshot, Scout, Mailman, Mayham, Bogey, Billboard, River Rat, Wheels, and Swamp Fox.

  • Riddler went up another 2 rungs to Mountain Climbers. He’s improved 6 rungs from his first week.
  • Catfish went up 30 Mac Tar Jais this week.
  • Sgt. York jumped 1 rung to Mary Catherines. That’s 4 rungs from week one.
  • Geppetto went up 1 rung to Jump Squats. That’s a gain of 3 rungs since the first week.
  • Popeye went up 2 rungs this week to Jump Squats.
  • Padre went up 1 rung to Mountain Climbers.
  • Tinker Toy and Burgundy went up 1 rung to Mary Catherines, a gain of 3 total from week one.
  • YHC went up 1 rung to Shoulder Raises, 2 rungs up from week one.

Our newbies made quite the showing today. A few notes of record:

  • River Rat had great form today. He took his time to make sure everything was done right. Great work!
  • Mailman, Mayham, and Swamp Fox hit it hard and completed Mac Tar Jais – no small feat.
  • Awesome work by Billboard in his first week with F3. The guy is drinking from a fire hose and doing great!
  • It was good to see Bogey resurface after a few weeks of IR.
  • Mugshot and Wheels both posted for the first time at BoP and got through 50 Jump Squats. To do that in week one is super impressive.
  • Perhaps the most astonishing is how Scout continues to CRUSH everything we throw at him. This guy made it to 50 Mountain Climbers – at age 68! You read that right. We’re starting to wonder if he’s human. Double Respect!

Remember men, we do this to get better. You are all an inspiration. Show up next week to finish out the BoP Challenge and see who made the most progress.

Announcements

8/21 (tomorrow) Food Truck Friday. Bring your families for some Fellowship with your F3 brothers. We will meet at Fountain Park at 6PM. Look for the shovel flags.

On Friday night, 09/18/2015 you will be enjoying fellowship with your fellow PAX sharing stories about how you smoked the PAX during your finest Q moments.  The next night in nearly the same location the Children’s Attention Home will be hosting a fundraising event for the Fort Mill community.  This event is a great opportunity for you and the M to lock shields with other PAX and enjoy an event with some southern hospitality.  F3 has also been asked to provide support for this event to help be volunteers to help direct cars to parking spaces and be runners during the event.  Pick your passion, serving through volunteering or support a great cause through a date night with your M.  See the following links for more information:

F3 at The Fort has been partnering with the Children’s Attention Home for over a year and a half now and if you volunteer in our bi-weekly events with the home or if you don’t know anything about the home this is a great opportunity about how this group home provides hope for children that otherwise have none.

F3 is already making an investment into these kids on a biweekly basis engaging with the children at CAH.  Let’s continue to expand how the men of F3 can have a real impact on the lives of the 43 children that the home protects, educates and loves.  Please consider coming out to support a great cause along with your fellow PAX.
