The title exhibits a fairly common misconception held by a small number of the Raleigh PAX. Orwell just happens to be the one that has asked the question multiple times. Every time, he tells YHC that I need to make up a better story about the arbitrary reasoning behind YHC’s F3 moniker. Apparently Wendell Gee sat on that name, waiting for some random smo to pin it on, for the better part of a year. And thus, YHC has been so named for 1 year in the gloom.
SF planted. Chong is snuggied safe in his California fartsack, recovering from quite the weekend endeavor. Well done sir. Well done. 22 PAX at the ready. 5:45 roll out.
Warm-up:
Jog to the upper parking lot, by the house of cats, across the glade, and down the hill. On the line at the base of the hill.
The Thang:
Au Pair immediately objects to not having a proper warm-up school circle. “You should have warmed up before we started” – YHC.
- 11’s – run up, burpees at the top, run down, squats at the bottom. When finished alternate between 20 LBC’s and 10 squats. Mumble chatter ceased as quickly as it began. Fungo get’s the Larry Bird virtual trophy for this portion.
- Run over to the stone circle:
- Round 1: Irkins x15ic, Dips x10ic, Derkins w/low hold x10, 10 box jumps oyo
- Round 2: Irkins x10ic, Dips x10ic, Low Hold Derkins x10, 10 box jumps oyo
- Round 3: Irkins x10ic, Dips x10ic, Low Hold Derkins x10
- To the Pic-a-nic shelter:
- Partner up. Partner 1 runs down around Enron’s yard art, and back. Partner 2 does 5 pull-ups, 10 Freddie Mercs, 20 squats and repeat. Flap Jack
- Round 2 partner 2 does 5 pull-ups, 20 Freddie Mercs, 10 squats and repeat.
Mary
- Heels to Heaven x20, Hello Dollys x20, Freddie Mercs x20, American Hammers x20
Finis!
COT
- 9/11 stair climb at FloodZone (Crabtree Valley Mall)
- Labor Day convergences at Catalyst, Zero Hour, and Agoge
- Challenge another man to be dangerous. Push him outside of his comfort zone. As YHC has discovered, this is the essence of F3. 21 PAX pushed YHC to craft a tough set this week. Honored and humbled to share the field with you.
- Fluoride took us out.
NMM
- There’s nothing like starting out with a tough set right out of the gate. Kind of like a good punch in the throat. Shock value, pure shock value. “What are you people?”
