WARMUP: A lap around the parking lot with SSH, windmills, tappy taps, MNC, and LBAC
THE THANG: Started with 7s in front of the Indian restaurant. We used the dry patch under the trees by the pet groomer with one BBSU and 6 burpees in the cloud of curry and garam masala. Mostly running but bear crawls were mandatory for 1/2 of the way back to the trees.
We then hoofed it to the fountain for 11s. On the bottom we started with 1 CDD. We ran up the hill to the second driveway of the fire station for 10 dips. Everyone finished!
Time was running short so after a walking 10-count or two “All Out” was called to the traffic circle on the other end of the apartment complex. Plank until the 6 and 10-count when everyone was in position. Mosey back to CoT and DONE!
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Things are happening all over the Fort. Do them.
COT: When we got back to the flag the rain was pouring harder than during the workout. Senator Tressel had to skedaddle as is often the case and we bid him adieu. For the rest of us, YHC expounded on the 2nd core principle, that we are open to all men, and ended in a prayer that the men we had there would go out and make the world a better place without agenda.

This is another workout I pulled from the archives (GC, June 30, 2015). Back then we had 11 at the workout and it looks like only about 4 are still active in F3 – too bad. Today’s group included some of the core Golden Corralers who I see week after week so I expect to see them in the next 9 years. We had a dedicated group who worked hard this morning and it’s always a pleasure to lead them. Thanks for the invite Half Shell!
