WARMUP: small mosey, 20 SSH, 10 imperial walkers, 10 cherry pickers, 10 good mornings, 10 low slow squat
THE THANG: starting by the bike rack do 12 BBSU, run past the front entrance to the intersection at the side of the school, 12 kick through merkins, back to the bike racks, 11, 10,… you get it
any who finish starts at 1 burpee and works their way up. Fishstix and Minuteman got to one burpee before time was up
MARY: 60 seconds left on the clock, Minuteman called a 10 count superman with a ripcord pull. Stix called a body destroyer to run out the last few seconds

Seamstress Last Stitch in the Fort

Leave a comment

WARMUP: not really the thing to do at Minnow Pond. Come at 0510 if you want a warmup
THE THANG: run, hard.
first stop – 1 merkin, 1 squat
2 merkins, 2 squats
Keep adding each time we stop
often we kept adding reps till the 6 was in. Then we took off again. PAX were advised to mosey when the group left and not worry about completing all the reps. Most hit 4 miles

Macgyver, Bones, and Badlands got out in front of me around mile 2 and Grout eclipsed me after mile 3. I always seem to push myself a little harder when I’m on Q at minnow pond. We have some strong and fast PAX in the Fort.

NMM: The idea was for the PAX to not know how far we were going or when we would stop. And that when we did stop, there’d be work to do. Just like our work lives that take us to new locations….

Seamstress had no idea when he came to FM that he’d be called to move so soon. Nor does he know when he’ll be called away again. Many PAX expressed gratefulness for the impact he had on us and prayers of blessing were offered (are still being offered) for his move to Chattanooga

What’s the count?

Leave a comment

Big crowd at Clydesdales this morning. The planned route was followed by some and others took their own path. Twister has a new pair of shoes. Apparently, they were out of all the men’s colors.

Pick that up and let’s go

Leave a comment

WARMUP: SSH, merkins, cherry pickers, on the ground for hamstring and back stretching
THE THANG: We brought some extra weight where each Pax of course had their ruck, and then 2 Pax for .25 miles would also carry the 40 pound sand bag and either a 30 or 35 lb kettle bell.

At the 1/4 mile mark, we rotated the extra weight to 2 new Pax and kept rotating every 1/4 mile.

At our first 1/4 mile we did 5 merkins with our ruck. Next 1/4 we did 5 merkins + 10 squat thrusters with ruck; next 1/4 was same as above plus 15 ruck swings; next quarter same stuff + 20 ruck chest press; another quarter plus everything + 25 shrugs.

Added up quickly but old school pearls on a string plus the extra weight was a nice way to end the work week.
MARY: no time today
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots going on in the fort! Dam 2 dam signups begin Sept 1
COT: keep praying for DiVinchi’s step dad
