Time to break out a blast from the past, F3-9000. 10 cones set up on the 8th floor of the parking deck with typed instructions taped to them. The PAX were split into two groups A and B. Three 30 pound shafts were brought along for extra fun. The concept…run to cone. Everyone does the group exercise, then each group does their assigned exercise for 1 minute, no resting. I tried to make a mathmatically correct number of exercises which through the force of calculus, physics, and geography would produce some unit equivalent to the number 9000. Ultimately this was deemed (by a group of renowned scientists) to be in the same category as the Yeti/Bigfoot, faster than light travel, perpetual motion, and the hope of Doogie and Riggs growing hair on the tops of their heads again. In the end, I decided it was the spirit of F3-9000 was more important than raw numbers.

Ultimately, time was not on my side and we (again) ran out of time. I did throw in one last corkscrew run just to shut Flying J up (he mocked me earlier).

We need to make a few more shafts so that everyone has one…I’m thinking 3 more. We also need to name them. I’m thinking of naming mine “Doogie’s Mom”
There was some talk about starting a Thursday morning F3, but I don’t think I can make that work, family-wise. Maybe a Wednesday or Thursday after work?
Doogie’s Mom is so fat, at the Angus Barn, the sign reads, “Maximum Occupancy 300…or Doogie’s Mom.”
