Under the wire…damn you end of the month

WARMUP: It’s Friday and warmer. Those are 2 plus signs. Guys showed up, another plus. I remembered the disclaimer and mission of F3, green light. We took off for a mosey in the parking lot and stopped after maybe 1/4 mile, maybe. SSH, windmills, cherry pickers, low slow squat, merkins, runners stretch. Warmup over.
THE THANG: Ran to the back of the HT where the smelly things live. 10 merkins, 20 squats, 30 crunches. Ran to the other end of the HT, another 10, 20, 30. Ran all the way through the apartment complex and to the bottom of the hill, 10, 20, 30 (I think).

Bottom of the hill we assembled for 7s. Burpees at the bottom, squats at the fire station. Pick up the 6 when done.

Ran back through the apt complex, another 10, 20, 30. Then to the back of the HT where we partnered up. Partners ran in opposite directions and when they meet up, 10 partner merkins, 20 partner squats (basically in cadence). Ran around HT again for the full loop. Rinse and repeat.
MARY: yep, sprinter sit-up, hammers, side plank gravediggers.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Wine event, Yeager CSAUP
COT: kids, jobs, patience.

Honoring 809

THE THANG:
Today we honored York Co. Detective Mike Doty, Badge No. 809, who’s End of Watch (EOW) was 7 years ago today, 1/17/2018.

Background:
York County deputies responded to a domestic violence call shortly after 10 p.m. on Jan. 15, 2018. Dispatchers were told the suspect, Christian Thomas McCall, was “actively assaulting” a woman at the home. By the time deputies arrived, McCall had left the home, sparking a massive manhunt.

Hours later, McCall fired multiple shots, striking a K-9 officer. Dozens of law enforcement units responded to the scene with McCall managing to evade police until 3:30 a.m. More shots were fired at that time. Doty and two other York County deputies were hit.

Doty died from his injuries at a Charlotte hospital on January 17. The other injured officers, https://www.wcnc.com/article/news/york-county-sergeant-returns-to-work-nearly-a-year-following-deadly-ambush-shooting/275-45f8eb8a-09b6-4069-b98a-5f4f3489c768, Sgt. Buddy Brown and York police officer Kyle Cummings, recovered.

Pirateless

No Pirate…. No problem for todays Q as the rest of us figured it out in the fly.

I did a 10 minute warmup just make sure we didn’t have any stragglers then Change order took over the next piece.

We partnered up and one partner would run while the other partner did a AMRAP until they returned of the following exercises:

Merkins
Squats
LBC’s
Mountain climbers.

After 2 rounds we all got a turn calling exercises.

Then with 5-7 minutes left Change order led us in Broga.

Mumblechatter was great workout was good and couldn’t have asked for a better start to the day!

:punch: :punch: :punch:

Pendulum routine.

One side of the hills start at 20 reps then decrease by 4 each lap thereafter.

Flutters
Plank jacks

Run to the other side stopping in the middle for a squat… which increases by 1 rep each trip.

Other side start at20 reps decrease by 4 each lap

BBS
Shoulder Taps

Everyone got through it all with just enough time to get back to COT.

Thanks to all who showed. It was great getting back out there. Don’t take it for granted men. Being able to get out there and work is invaluable to your mental health as much as it is to your physical health.

See y’all out there!

3 Jolly Friends

WARMUP: Peta lead the group with a slow and steady warmup. Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Hillbilly Walker, and SSH.
THE THANG: Half Shell took a mosey and we stayed near the original parking lot for a 12 days of Christmas session which included 1 location for merkins and another location for big boys with running between them. We missed 4 and 6, so we had to sprint those laps, and got to 9 before Grassy took over. We took a mosey to Walgreens for some reindeer games. Taken from F3 Cherokee from 2018, there was a list of all Santa’s reindeer and each one had a different exercise. We had already sung songs together and now the mumblechatter chatter really took over. We counted in Spanish, then German and there a lot of trivia about Home Alone 2. After getting through the reindeer games, we took a mosey back to COT
MARY: Peta took us through some exercises and finished up our workout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: OAs closed Tuesday for Christmas Eve workout and D2D
COT: Prayers for family, passing of loved ones, loss of jobs, travel, healing and kids.

3 lessons from Sugar Daddy

WARMUP: Jog to the barber shop – various exercises in cadence – windmills, low slow squats, seal jacks, imperial and hillbilly walkers, plank and stretch – then PAX we’re off for a trip to the dumpsters

THE THANG: lesson 1 – work fast – treat movements with a sense of purpose and urgency. 7’s – merkins at the curb and squats at dumpster 1

Lesson 2 – change speeds – off to dumpster 2 – 7’s with burpees and merkins at ends of the parking lot. Be prepared as a leader to meet others at their pace when attempting to influence

Lesson 3 – throw strikes – mosey to Grace presby and do rounds of incline merkins, step ups OYO and dips at the benches and the curb. Then on the way to COT one more round of 7’s in motion – Diamond merkins and sumo squats. Our activities should be targeted at those priorities (concentrica) most important in our lives. Are they??

MARY: Geometry class – protractors, rosalitas and hello dollys. PAX kept feet off ground at all times……until 0600 anyway.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: of course
COT: remains the 5th core principle

Thanks for the call Slapshot
