F3 Lexington Backblasts
Oh the joys of a weekend workout: the pax got to sleep in to the late hour of 5:30am, and before the workout was complete the sun was rising and the temperatures were all the way up to 36 degrees. What a great way to start Valentines day! With the famous Splinter leading the pax …
“What the heck is a side straddle hop double merkin burpee?” “Land soft if your feet are freezing and and all your blood’s drained to ’em.” “I can’t feel my fingers…” “Changing speeds makes it better…” “Quit quittin’!” “Who invited this guy?” “5 more minutes!” “Don’t be cheatin’ it!” “‘Evil 8′ sounds lovely…” “No way …
11 pax followed Good Hands around nearly the entire RBHS campus. Good mubblechatter early but tailed off as pax became mobile. Lots of moseying, merkining and bear crawling. The pax even crashed Crypt and Boneyard’s COT with a circle of Monkey Humpers in an ode to V-Day. No disrespect meant, just showing a little love. QIC …
Eight Pax got out of the fartsack and said, “29 degrees and an F3 workout, No problem, bring it.” What we did not realize is that rubber tires become exponentially heavier when the temperature drops below 32 degrees. Also this being Saturday and thus a 1 hour workout instead of the usual 45 minutes came …
YHC saw some other F3 regions had completed a 99 workout and he was interested. If you have seen the 99 workout it will look familiar but I had to modify some as I couldn’t keep everyone’s time. So I mixed it up a little and included exercises without time, just things you can do …
12 Pax post despite the high winds and cold temperatures to get better… and probably to hear the name of Lexington’s newest AO, and to learn the identity of the AOQ. The AO’s Name: Crusade. The AOQ: Meatball. Conditions: 28 deg, wind chill of 20. The Thang: Depart the parking lot into the …
13 pax bravely removed themselves from the fartsack to face the Reaper again this morning. The Reaper doesn’t care how cold it is, and neither did the pax. YHC thought that we had an FNG out there this morning as well; however, he was wrong. It was just a baby face Blindside, somebody must have …
4 pax crawled out of the fartsack to familiarize themselves with a portion of the 10K Lexington Race Against Hunger Course. The race this year is 2/28/15 and you can still register. Tomorrow the fee goes up! So, follow THIS link to register. $30 for 10K and $15 for 5K. Pick your poison.. all proceeds go …
22 Pax including 1 FNG got out of their fartsacks for what they thought would be just another day at Shawshank. They learned early on that YHC was either delusional or reading his weinke upside down. YHC had the workout written out early yesterday and then read an article posted on Twitter from Men’s Health …
7 faithful Pax arose to the crisp gloom and decided to get better at Snake Pit. YHC had thought that he had reconned Snake Pit to it’s fullest potential after last month’s tour-de-campus workout but after Saturday’s convergence he learned he was mistaken and was introduced to a beautiful area below the main football field that …
