Conditions: 60ish degrees with light intermittent rain, perfect in the gloom!
20 pax, with 1 FNG, fought off the fart sack and met in the Jumanji gloom at Howard Park for a F3 Lexington Convergence with the special guest F3 Lake Murray’s Strut Brigade and the one and only Pajanimal. Pax were required to have tickets for this monumental event, as the entrance to Howard Park was blocked by a mini-van requiring them for entry. Rumors on Twitter the night before mentioned the event was sold out and some pax resorted to Stub Hub to obtained their ticket. As the clocked struck 6:30 a.m., YHC announced “Follow Me!” and the beat down began.

At one point during this cycle, YHC overheard Wapner say something to the effect, I’ll have to remember when Enos is Q there will be a lot of running involved. The Strut Brigade pax could have told him this.
Also during this time, Pebbles disappeared & reemerged with his battle rope!
All pax line up in the high plank position, get close to your neighbor.
Each pax does 20 battle rope swings as all other plank.
When pax completes the swings, tunnel of love under the pax.
Second time through – all pax does wall sits while not swinging the rope.
All pax enjoyed this & I’m sure it make a return appearance at an AO near you.
Mosey to the area behind the baseball on the right for a little TUG-O-WAR courtesy of Pajanimal who brought his huge rope!
Pair up for 3 sets of tug-o-war.
Still a little time left, so let’s get in a little 6 Minutes of Mary.
YHC can not recall what exercises were called by who, but they definitely pushed the pax.
Mosey back to parking lot for BOM.
It was great to get back to Jumanji and spend some quality time with the brothers of F3 Lexington and the Strut Brigade. Tuff Guy siad it was the largest gather of pax at Jumanji ever, thanks for inviting the Strut Brigade & allowing YHC to Q. We may not have been at the Mud Run, but the pax had a great beat down, none the same. Thanks to Pajanimal and Pebbles for bring their ropes to incorporate in the workout.
T-claps to the pax that completed the double down at The Mission. If you haven’t posted at The Mission, make sure to do it soon. You will come away with more than just the workout, this is what F3 is all about.
