Well, looky here. As I was preparing to write today’s Blitz backblast, I went looking for my last Blitz backblast. I couldn’t find it. So, I dug into the interweb guts of the F3 WordPress archives and found my unfinished and unpublished Backblast from February. I blame the Scientologists. And the Russians. Either way, I’ve done my best to finish it. Enjoy.
A fine group of 11 showed up for a trifecta celebration. Today marked the anniversary of The Miracle on Ice, Celebrity Day Church of Scientology, and the day NASA had scheduled for a big press conference to announce a “Discovery Beyond Our Solar System.” No sir, my friend, today was no ordinary day.
Warm-up
Mosey on over to a clear piece of asphalt with your kettle ball and circle up for Good Mornings, Mt. Climbers and Arm Circles. 36 years ago today…
“Do You Believe in Miracles?!”
The Pax answered “Yes!” and off we went again. Down the stairs and huddle up boys. In honor of The Miracle on Ice we did 3 periods of partner stairs work. First period the US and Russia exchanged goals, 2-2: P1 Farmers Walk both bells up and down the stairs, P2 AMRAP Burpees, flapjack. In the second period the Soviets went up 1 goal: P1 Overhead Carry up and down, P2 AMRAP Swings, then flap. In the final period the US scored two goals to win 4-3: P1 run up, touch doors, 10 Diamonds, return. P2 AMRAP Curl and Press, flapjacky.
Celebrating Celebrity Day Church of Scientology
Mosey with yo bells up to the covered area around back of the building. This is a good spot for a celebration of public celebrities and all things Scientology. It is their day, let’s honor them. Here we let each set of partners call an exercise for the group, while they go over and AMRAP Pull-Ups. There were 6 sets, and then we wrapped up by doing a set of whatever you called for the group. I can’t recall all the exercises, but they were great.
This is where my previous BB trialed off. The rest is sketchy at best.
NASA’s Has Found… “Something.”
Well we now know that NASA found a set of earth like exoplanets called TRAPPIST-1. Exoplanets are Earth like planets, in case you were wondering. Anyway, on this morning, before the announcement, we only knew that the scientist at NASA were freaking out. They all had huge hard-ons. It was a little awkward, in a nerd gets the hot girl kinda way. But, I digress. We may have done a few sets of Swings, Presses, and Squats. Or some Single-Armeded Ruh-Rohs, High-Pulls and Triceps. And I feel certain we finished with some LBCs, Freddies and Homer 2 Marge. Certain. Yeah. We did all that stuff. And it was great. Yeah.
CoT – Moleskin
So we finished with CoT, with names and announcements, and pretty sure someone kindly prayed us out. Then we all went and had a cup of coffee and reveled in our workout glory.
You should have been there. It was like, just over 8 weeks ago. And it was good.
Peace,
Shaggy
