IronPax Pep- The Wheel of Misfortune

Leave a comment

WARMUP: Instructions and pick up Cindy
THE THANG: The Wheel of Misfortune
In a throwback IronPax workout from 2020, we did the Wheel of Misfortune. 43 minutes of AMRAP.
Start with a 400 meter run
Pick up your block, do 10 Thrusters
Rifle carry the block 25 yds. to the 1st of 6 stations. They included: Decline Merkins, Blockees/Man Makers, Squats with the block on your back, Kettle Bell Swings, Chest Press and Cross Arm Block Raises.
In between each station, Rifle carry back to the light pole and do 10 Thrusters.
Each round consisted of 210 reps.
Most completed 2 rounds. Some more, some less.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Sign-up for IronPax, Ft. Mill Care Center still needs items. Get ready for Tour de Fort for the 10 year.
COT: Prayers for kids/teachers/parents as school starts back. Prayers for @Slapshot as he visits PA and his 102 yr old grandmother.

We ended with a discussion of community and building your brothers. IronPax is a great way to make new brothers by doing something hard together. Get signed up at https://f3greenwood.wordpress.com Workouts start will be Tuesdays and Fridays at NaFo. 5am start times as some of the beatdowns are timed to completion, though designed to be done in 45 minutes.

First in Speed, Not Last in Reporting…

Leave a comment

Maximus and Punch List showed for a whetstone pre-biscuit.

L Train took the Q and called his famous “Seesaw route” which – in the words of Hardwood – is “downhill both ways!”

It’s true. You just don’t think about the hills when going up.

We ran down Doby’s, through Dominion Bridge to the backside of Forest Creek Middle. Run up the hill to the main entrance on Whites Rd, cut across and down the hill to the rear entrance of Catawba Ridge. Repeat twice and head back to COT.

5 miles were run by most.

I am writing this backblast strictly for reporting purposes, as it was not YHC’s Q.

COT –

Prayers for school starting, our children having new experiences, and for our marriages as we lead said children.
