Too much candy

WARMUP: Quick Mosey around HT parking lot to pick up Cubbie who came in hot
THE THANG:
Mosey to the bottom of Grant Farm Drive by the fountain.
11s called where PAX will do 1 squat at the bottom and 10 BBSU at the top entrance to the fire station. There was some confusion as to which side was which as the Q’s instructions may not have been consistent, but we got through it.
Walking 10 count and off to the traffic circle on Stockbridge Dr. The PAX formed a tight circle and did a bearcrawl of pain. 1 PAX bear crawled around the ring while everyone did AMRAP on an exercise that was NOT called by the bear crawler (so you can’t stick anyone with burpees).
Two rounds of that and there was just enough time to trot back to CoT for
MARY:
90 seconds of mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT:
Circle of trust was established. What’s on the hearts of the PAX? A prayer for the leadership we attain through F3.

DORA (done in pairs, double, double tap… yeah)
100 squat, 200 merkins, 300 LBC
Partner runs to 40 line and back

Rule #3 – Beware of Bathrooms
Al Gore for 60 seconds

Rule #7 – Travel Light
PAX will shuffle entire length of the painted field.

On the way down they will drop at every length marker for 10 double-count dying cockroach. (to fend off the zombies when they are forced to the ground).
On the way back they will drop to do 10 double-count flutters at every painted length marker.

Rule #17 – Don’t be a Hero

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Lots of stuff going on. Happy Hour is doing a family 4k. There’s a Christmas party. Bourbon tasting. Convergences on Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve
COT:
Circle of TRUST. Not prayer chain. What’s on our hearts that affects US. We talked about things that affected us, difficulty in our lives that we deal with as men. Revealing truths that, if kept secret, erode our ability to be leaders.
F3 is not a Christian organization but CoT was ended in a prayer by a christian.

Funhouse sendoff at the Pond

WARMUP: ran to Hardee’s, did SSH, planked, ran more. Ran down to city hall building.
THE THANG: 2 exercises at the city hall building, ran down to 4 way stop for 1 burpee (added 1 burpee each time we passed it, then up the hill to the parking lot for the same 2 exercises.

10 pushups (change pushups each time between diamonds, ranger, regular) and 10 double count flutters.

Last added part was to try and push your way up the hills just so you weren’t dialing it in.
MARY: got some hammers in, bicycles, more hammers
ANNOUNCEMENTS: CSPAN style positive vibes to Funhouse!
COT: like all of us when we’re in the flux, we go up and down just like the hills we ran today. Sometimes easier going down the hill, but that push and pull from another guy, and that guy to lean on and talk to when you need it, that’s the goal of leaving no man behind!
