“Just the Facts, Ma’am.” pt 2.

It was a glorious 75 degree gloom today, complete with humidity and dew. The air was saturated from the storms overnight. Along the ride there was a Shield & Splinter sighting – running all the way from Regent Park. Animals.

YHC rolled into the AO in a good mood, made even better by the sighting of Dirty Harry waiting in the parking lot. To top it off, Albatross showed up the day after his FNG post. The man’s got gumption.

Start

Disclaimer was disclaimed, then we walked through the 5 core principles. YHC was excited to deliver the pain this morning.

COP

SSH x 34 IC

Merkins x 7 IC

Six Count Burpess x 5 IC

Jump Lunges x 8 Each Side

Weinke

Quick mosey to adjacent lot.

ASS WEBBS

1 Squat : 4 Squat Pulses up to 10:40. The PAX dropped it like it was hot.

Walk Like an Egyptian

This is a lunge hold Indian run. Take a step in a lunge, hold it, PAX in rear sprints to front. Step forward with other leg, hold while PAX in rear sprints to front. Repeat until you arrive at your destination.

Luckily our destination was only 50 or so yards… but the burn was felt.

BEARPEES

1 6-Count Burpee : 4 Bear Crawl Steps up to 10:40. YHC called the cadence throughout to keep the PAX together.

Mosey to field to complete final iteration.

JACK WEBBS

1 Merkin : 4 OH Claps up to 10:40. The shoulders were on fire for the duration of this iteration.

5 Min of Mary

Protractor into Rosalita’s x 10

Flutters x 10

American Hammers x 10

Gas Pumpers x 10 (at the discretion of Dirty Harry)

NMM

Today’s workout was pleasant – most would disagree – but the mutual suck endured alongside my brothers quickly became fun for YHC. I wanted to cut the movements short multiple times, but we don’t wake up at 0430 to half ass it.

I’ve been struggling to post as of late, and to be honest I am not happy with myself about it. I ran into Esso on Monday at Publix, and the camaraderie gained from posting quickly translates into the world a sense of community and belonging. He promised he’d come to my Q, and much to my delight, he did as he said. This community we have in F3 is not to be taken for granted, even by a kotter like myself. I am better when I post. Not only because of the 1st F. It’s because of the 2nd F that we all enjoy so much, followed by the 3rd F in putting our community and faith above ourselves. We push each other to be better daily. It starts with showing up.

Who is in your world that would benefit from this?
