Conditions:
16 pax defied the fartsack today in hopes of getting closer to 13 posts for January #PointPonies. 13 posts and reading a book (aka The Bellhop Bourbon Challenge) gets you a coveted invite for a Bourbon Tasting – or maybe it was just Busch Light – at Social Grill. Or was it Ray’s Place? Anyway, it was only post 11 for YHC; but a handful of Depot men have hit the magic numbers and posted 13 or more times this month. #TClaps

YHC realizes we have runners and non-runners in F3. YHC also realizes all runners used to be non-runners at some point – they just needed a nudge. With that in mind – and to let the pax choose their preference – today we had two options. Both options had the same exercises but were done in different fashion.
Running Version:
Start at Light Pole 1. You know what’s coming – pole touching #LumberghSpecial
21 Overhead Press w/block and run to Pole 2: 21 BBSU and return to Pole 1.
21 Overhead Press w/block again and run past Pole 2 to Pole 3: 21 merkins and return to Pole 1 (note: you don’t stop on way back until Pole 1)
21 Overhead Press w/block again and run past poles 2, 3 to Pole 4 for 21 LBCs and return to Pole 1.
21 Overhead Press w/blocks again and run….to Pole 5 for 21 plankjacks. Back to Pole 1
21 Overhead Press w/blocks again and run….to Pole 6 for 21 American Hammers. Back to Pole 1
Non-running version
Start at Pole 1 and perform all exercises before running across the field to Pole 6. Rinse and Repeat
21 Overhead Press
21 BBSU
21 Overhead Press
21 Merkins
21 Overhead Press
21 LBCs
21 Overhead Press
21 Plankjacks
21 Overhead Press
21 American Hammers
21 Overhead Press
21 Burpees (SURPRISE!!) You didn’t think you could skip all the running for nothing, did you?

Moleskin: YHC realized when I was placing “cue cards” at each light pole this morning that the field was a little moist. “Moisty-er” than I had planned. Arriving at 5am did allow me some time to modify, but since backblast was written – we stuck to the plan. TClaps to the runners who slopped through the course today. YHC noticed a few pax (Soccer Mom, Bellhop, TNT) doing extra work at each pole on the way back from Pole 6.
