The Griff & The CIA 7

Well, the Site Q was under the weather so we :hand_with_index_and_middle_fingers_crossed: that someone would show up who had a key to the NaFo track. Thankfully, since it’s the first day of school, the football coaches had it open as the team had a morning practice. We debated for a few minutes whether we would risk going in or not, but after he drove away and left it open, we decided to risk it, especially since we had some nur-ing to do.
WARMUP: Windmills, Cherry Pickers, SSH, mosey to the track
THE THANG: The Griff:
Run 800 meters
Run 400 meters backwards
Run 800 meters
Run 400 meters backwards

In honor of U.S. Air Force Staff Sgt. Travis L. Griffin, 28, who was killed on April 3, 2008, in the Rasheed District of Baghdad, by an improvised explosive device strike to his vehicle.
Griffin is survived by his son, Elijah.

After that, we headed over to the bars and blocks for:

The Seven
7 rounds for time of:
7 handstand push-ups
7 thrusters
7 knees-to-elbows
7 deadlifts
7 burpees
7 kettlebell swings
7 pull-ups

A suicide bomber http://www.nytimes.com/2010/01/05/world/asia/05cia.htmland one Jordanian officer at a remote base in southeastern Afghanistan on Dec. 30, 2009, after posing as a potential informant reporting on Al Qaeda. Seven new stars will be etched into the memorial wall at the CIA, forever in their names. Killed in the attack were CIA officers Jennifer Lynne Matthews, 45; Scott Michael Roberson, 39; Harold E. Brown Jr., 37; Darren LaBonte, 35; Elizabeth Hanson, 30; and security contractors Jeremy Jason Wise, 35, and Dane Clark Paresi, 46.

I thought that this was either going to go super fast or take us the rest of the time. It took us the rest of the time. It’s surprisingly a smoke-fest for your shoulders and arms. We walked to get our heart rates down back to COT.

MARY: LBC’s, Flutters, LBC’s again, Hello Dolly’s.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel, New Gloom Scheduler, read your newsletter.
COT: Prayers for the first day of school for kids. Watch out for all of the kiddos on your drive to work. Prayers for marriages and kids traveling.

Failure is where the story begins

WARMUP: the usual suspects
THE THANG: Jack Webb’s at the benches with step ups and Bulgarian split squats (4rounds) and then at the playground with merkins and pull-ups (7 rounds)

So as Rainmaker asked during the workout I started my story or testimonial with sharing about my childhood. I grew up with a single mother only child and although I went to Christian schools thanks to my mom, as I got older I started living a double life and got involved with the wrong people and wrong activities, but all the while I still went to church, had a job was going to college doing all those things yet living for myself, letting my jesters have their way and not taking care of myself.

However! God still had a plan for me! and as I got older, even though I got into some trouble, he looked out for me. I found myself with a career at a company that I was able to grow with and learned a lot, and at a certain point got sick of trying to do it all on my own and gave my life back to the Lord…and His infinite grace He blessed us with kids and a career, a business in a new community, of course a great brotherhood with F3 and many other blessings!!

so even though I failed and I continue to fail, God still redeems and uses the broken and I’m a testimony to that. We finished with a discussion on dying to the flesh daily, repentance and how to live third!
MARY: none
ANNOUNCEMENTS: read newsletter
COT: had to dip early so wasn’t there for that!

King of the Ring – Round 2 – The Rocket Burner

Ring of Fire – King of the Ring Challenge
Round 2 – Previous Kings are Q
Oh the humidity was cranked up!! Soupy swampy hot. ZERO breeze. Excellent mumblechatter in COT while we all stretched out. Senator Tressel came in hot, but caught up to us on the warmup run. 13 dawgs let loose!!

Warmup:
Slow run loop around the parking lot, approx. 400-500m, then circle up near COT for the following:
– 20 SSH
– 10 WM
– 15 MNC
– 15 IW
– 10 Strawberry pickers

Then mosey over to the USMC JROTC building, roadway near the sidewalk to the pull-up bars for…..

THE THANG:
The Rocket Burner Circuit
Setup: 5 stations, each with an exercise. Some have modes of transportation listed to get to the next station. PAX are to grab 2 cinder blocks from storage and put them on the roadway near the sidewalk to the pull up bars. Then get after it. Cones were used to mark station locations. Station 1 was at the pull-up bars, station 2 was at the roadway, beginning of sidewalk to pull-up bars, station 3 was along the roadway, towards A.O. Jones, approx. 5-60 yds away, station 4 was same location as station 2, station 5 was at bottom of hill at stop sign. That is the circuit.
Do the work. No music, just work. Once all stations are done, scoring of one round is once you return to station 1 to start over. King is the one who does the most rounds.
Stations and MoT are:
1. 5 pull-ups, frolick (walk, skip, whatever) to #2
2. With one cindy, 15 overhead presses, then farmer’s carry BOTH blocks to #3
3. With one cindy, 15 curls, then farmer’s carry BOTH blocks to #4
4. With BOTH cindies, 15 deadlift into calf raise. Full up, full down. Then no more cindies. Run downhill to #5.
5. 5 burpees, 20 lunges (10 ea leg), 25 LBC. Run uphill to #1
6. That is one round
7. Repeat

WINNER IS: BAND CAMP!! He was a machine, cranking out almost 6 full rounds (or was it 6 full, started on 7th?). Harry Carry was hot on his heels. Everyone cranked out at least 3. I got 4 full, started on 5th, but threw in the towel after pull-ups. A lot of excellent mumblechatter and push/pull from each PAX. Guys were REALLY going after it, pushing hard. No cinder blocks were harmed, too. :blush:

Stored the cindies just in time to get back to COT right at 6.

MARY: None

Announcements: The Barry is coming!! Read your newsletter, get involved!!

COT: A lot of P&P lifted. Do not carry it all inside.

Cake Boss came up with a GREAT idea with this King of the Ring challenge. Looking forward to the next rounds!! BRING IT!!!

Thank you for the opportunity to lead. Blessings and SYITG.
