If You Can’t Do It, Don’t Q It

Leave a comment

Well, the Site Q (YHC) has been doing a slack job recently and figure out I didn't have a Q for this morning so I decided to take it on. I'm a be believer in "If you can't do it, don't Q it" so given my current set of injuries, we focused on running and abs.

WARMUP: Run around the school and we stopped at the benches by the carpool enterance.
10 Step-ups each leg
10 Merkins in Cadence
Windmills
Head over for our date with Cindy & the Hill
THE THANG: 7's- 1st set was chest press, then run downhill for big boys. Nur back up.
Second set of 7's after completing that was curls and 4-count flutters. We did 2 sets since Marty Byrd thought we would do 11's, and I told him we wouldn't do such a high number at once. I didn't say anything about the total.
By the end, we were at 2.6 miles, and I wanted to get to 3, so we ran around the perimeter of the parking lot before heading to COT.
MARY: LBC's, Box Cutters, Freddys, Heals to Heaven, Flutters.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel serve on 10/1- Get signed up.
Convergence 9/29 at WEP
Trash pickup in Q4
Christmas party will happen sometime in the not-so-distant future.
COT: Round Robin of prayers and praises.

2nd Annual F3 The Fort 9/11 Memorial Stair Climb

Leave a comment

9/11/2001 is a day nobody will ever forget. Nobody should ever forget. Many lives were lost and America as we knew it was forever changed after that day.

This was the 25th anniversary of that horrible day.

110 stories / floors per tower
Approx 2,071 steps in each tower
1,100 – 1,200 ft elevation gained per tower
2,753 souls from both towers perished

The football stadium bleachers at Nation Ford High School (aka Honey Badger, Ring of Fire, and Varsity), there are 6 rows (the larger two-way rows) of steps, each row with 34 steps. Going up then down each of the 6 rows gets you 204 steps, which is one round. Repeat that 10 times, or 10 rounds, +1 more row, you have 2074 steps. But we are going for elevation gain, not step count. By doing at least 14-15 rounds of NaFo steps, everyone hit the mark on elevation gained and over 2,100 steps.

Some were slick (no ruck), some wore rucks or weight vests, some had sandbags, some did a combo of all the above. We launched at 0600, and were done by 0730. Excellent work by everyone involved.

If we fail to remember significant events in our history, we are destined to eventually repeat them. NEVER FORGET.
This will be back again next year, hopefully closer to 9/11.

MP version of ROF

Leave a comment

It was King of the Ring at ROF this morning. Instead of creating a workout that favored my strengths, went in the opposite direction and thought about the AO that kicks my butt every time, MP. Instead of running with merkins, served up running with core work. Splinter was the King putting in 3+ miles.

WARMUP:
Moseyed to the track for 1 lap with HKs, BKs, & Karaokes mixed in, SSHICx25, IWsICx15, time to roll.

THE THANG:
Winner was the one who completed the most laps around the track. There were different core exercises for Odd & Even numbered laps. Complete the list of exercises for the odd lap and then run the lap, same for the even numbered laps.

Odd Laps – Rep Count = 20-Single Count
AHs, FMs, and Flutters

Even Laps – Rep Count = 20-Single Count
LBCs, PTs, GPs

MARY: No time for her

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your NL

COT: STK!
