Honeypot and Poppins faced off this week. it was great.
WARMUP:
SSH x13 while we wait for Twister
Mosey to small Springs parking lot right off 160
SSH x20
IW x10
Windmills x10
Flutters x10
Mountain Climbers x10
Mosey to Millstone Park
THE THANG: Webb-O-Rama
4 cones set up along path heading from Millstone Park toward Main Street. On each cone were 2 exercises to be done in Jack Webb style (1:4 ratio)
Cone 1- 1 Burpee : 4 SSH
– >> Bear crawl to next station
Cone 2 – 1 Big boy sit up : 4 American Hammers
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 3 – 1 Knee tar N’Diaye : 4 Squats
– partner wheelbarrow to next station
Cone 4 – Traditional Jack Webb –
– >> Run down to Main Street then around to first station
Instead of doing all 10 reps at once, we broke it up into 3 rounds.
Round 1: 1-4
Round 2: 5-7
Round 3: 8 and 9 for cone 1, then just 8 for cones 2-4 since we ran out of time.
Total mileage clocked in at 2.7 miles.
Lots of mumble chatter about runaway Q-drenaline, prime number counting, Knee tar N’Diayes speed, Weinke timing, and murder.
Thanks Kermit for the opportunity to lead!
History was made today as YHC made his VQ at The Armory. I’m happy that after 9 years someone finally noticed me. All it took was getting up at 3 am to make the drive across the bridge to the “other side” of Fort Mill.
We didn’t do a disclaimer because only professionals showed up.
Warm up was an Indian Run in a slowish pace around the parking lot. Battlebot decided to snake us a bit but we made it back. 5 Windmills and about 10 Polish night clubs.
The Thang
After much discussion on the properness of the name, we did a Jack Web because I said so. Although others were determined it should have been called 11s. Luckily, I didn’t fold under the pressure and called it what I wanted. We started with 1 press and walked across the lot for 10 curls. Now normally you would assume we then did 2 presses and 9 curls…. but somewhere in YHC’s Coors Light daze the numbers didn’t add up. We pretty much did 10 of each exercise on both sides of the parking lot. I wish I could say it was a test to see who was paying attention, but that would just be a lie.
Next, we again debated the name of the exercise group. I said accumulator, some said Dora, others said Misogi….look I don’t care what yall call stuff, just do the exercises. We partnered up with 1 person doing the call out while the other ran across the lot and back. Each time the partner ran they had to add 1 merkin. I think by the end we were around 14-16 merkins each time we ran. Call out was 300 swings, 200 tri extension, and 50 man makers.
Closed with good news about Band Camps youth trip and prayers over the P200 runners
….Hope your happy 3D and thanks for the invite Battle Bot
WARMUP: Naked and Afraid led in cadence. He’s still got it.
THE THANG: NaF tried to hand off, but I didn’t let him. So, he called 50 burpees and got himself gassed enough so that I would take over.
We did some partner dora-esque work including:
50 burpees
100 CDD
150 LBC
Bulgarian Split Squats
Bear Crawled with additive merkins
J-Los
Flutters
PAX discussed what brings us out to the gloom.
Among the answers:
The desire to be better for our families
The fellowship
Knowing we wouldn’t do this in isolation
The leadership training
Connection to Q-source
The mentorship
Starting the day up 1-0
The accountability
Associating with a group of men striving to be better
Imagine what kind of sad clowns we’d (I’d) be otherwise
An honor to lead today. Great to have NaF answer my text last night and step up to post and Q the warmup!
Beautiful March weather (seriously it was a perfect day) for the 0800 launch of the Eröffnung Jäger. PAX were assured by Grinder that the routes were well marked and there were no Zima-miles. This proved to be 99.9% true (you could still get lost if you wanted to…)
The premise was solid. 4 man team (2 Ruckers, 2 Runners). Runners had longer routes and teams met at checkpoints for team exercises before they could head to the next station. The pain stations were tough. Lutefisk about killed the PAX at the first one. (Oh, that was just me?) Triple Lindy had us loading munitions. Cake Boss brought candy, but it was not a sweet treat. (Could have also been that the leg leading to Alison Park was soul crushing….) Tinsel forgot it was a CSAUP and thought he was prepping for a Tables, Ladders, and Chairs wresting match.
The finishing team results:
1.) Vuvu/Beaker (for the record you were suggested to have a 4 man team…)
2.) Cobra Kai’s crew (that included the mythical Gekko)
3.) Camp 3D’s Sugar Shady Band Bug
4.) Cornerstone’s posse
5.) Poppins’ Chimney Sweeps (seriously impressive that Badlands ran back from the final pain station to connect with his teams’ Ruckers)
6.) The Entourage around Shield
7.) Slow Jams and the Lake Ridge Wanders
8.) Lake Wylie’s Wild Thing drinking Whiskey and enjoying a Big Mac (great to see these guys from across the bridge here for the CSAUP)
Afterwards at the Print Shop, we celebrated the Dam 2 Dam fundraising effort where The Fort is sending $7,500 to Defend the Fatherless, $7,500 to Autism Strong, $7,500 to the Fort Mill Care Center, and $10,000 to the F3 the Fort endowed scholarship.
It is an honor to be part of The Fort alongside some amazing high impact men. On behalf of Grinder and the entire planning crew, this backblast is respectfully submitted by the smallest cog in the Jaeger machine—Band Camp.
