Mosey to The Bridge

THA THANG:
29s (Jacob’s Ladder)

Run across Bridge… 28:1 merkins

Run across Bridge… 1:28 groiners

The reps of each round would obviously add up to 29.

Repeato for 29 minutes

Some completed the round of 22 merkins and 7 groiners, some 23 and 6, maybe some 24 and 5

Mosey back to La Madeleine

Then for each PAX: 29-g=a    where g=final round of groiners completed and a=additional groiners.  YHC had to do 22 groiners here.

Then for each PAX: 29-a=b   where a=additional groiners and b=burpees.  YHC had to do 7 burpees here.

IST until time was up.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
YHC preached to the PAX that we need to keep accelerating the difficulty of our workouts.  At all of our workouts every single PAX should get stronger, physically of course, but also mentally.  We need to have workouts at which Special Sauce is unsure of whether or not he will be able to make it through.  YHC drew up this workout because it is impossible.  This was designed to help everyone get tougher mentally.  Never underestimate the power of impossibility when designing a workout.

MOLESKIN:
Thanks to all of the PAX that joined YHC to celebrate YHC’s 29th birthday.  You guys push YHC to be better in every facet of my life everyday.  Thank you.

THA THANG:
Mosey clockwise to SE corner of park: Merkins x 10 IC

Mosey to SW corner: Groiners x10 IC

Mosey to NW corner: Alabama Prom Dates x 15 IC

Mosey to bridge where PAX paired off.  P1 bear crawled up bridge while P2 ran to lights near top of bridge, back down to base and return to partner.  Flap jack.  Repeato up incline to lights, U-turn and back down.

Mosey up bridge to stairs, down stairs and YHC had PAX line up along guardrail for Derkins x 10 IC & Clay Makers x 10 IC each leg

Mosey back upstairs to begin an NA run to other side of bridge and back up to first support column.  YHC then had PAX sprint to stairs and then pair off again where P1 crawl beared down while P2 ran down, back up to stairs and to P1 where they flap jacked.

Once PAX made it down incline, we returned to NE corner of Glencoe Park where YHC made everyone’s morning with 15 burpees OYO where there was much gnashing of teeth or at least choice words for YHC.

Finished out with a mosey back to park pavilion where we finished the workout with 10 V-ups IC and 10 LBC’s IC.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
YHC prayed us out

MOLESKIN:
Fair about of mumble chatter but PAX were spread out during bridge workout.  A lot of cursing and moaning from Rump Roast with each new exercise that was announced!  I know he loved all of the running, but he gets better every workout!  I know there were other colorful comments throughout, but alas, my memory once again betrays me.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
1. Q Source on Wednesday night at Chick-Fil-A on Hillcrest and Friday somewhere in Preston Center.

Eli with his first EH, roommate Velcro. The presence of the speaker had the PAX wondering if YHC was going to break out the OG music workout, but instead decided to work on the abs as pool season is coming quickly. Workout cut 3 minutes short in order to name Velcro before he had to cut out for work.

MARY:
Plenty if you ran to the front of the group

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
YHC prayed a thankful Easter prayer.

MOLESKIN:
Coach K brought his dad, also Brian, to the beatdown today.  We naturally named him Coach Knight because Bobby Knight was Mike Krzyzewski’s mentor.

We said farewell to Mile High yesterday and wish him the best as he and his family move to Aberdeen, Mississippi this week. Mile High has always been thinking about the best way to grow F3 Dallas and to impact the PAX and the community. He is truly a #HIM and he will be greatly missed.

Not much mumblechatter today as the PAX got pretty spread out during the Jacob’s Ladder, but the PAX were constantly encouraging each other as they ran past each other in the garage.  They were also supportive in picking up the six. To keep PAX of all fitness levels #accelerating we need workouts like this, but if the group spreads out the guys at the front have to pick up the six. Everyone gets stronger in that situation.

A massive group went to breakfast at the greatest #coffeteria AO in F3 Nation, Bubba’s.  We sat outside in the sun and enjoyed some great #SecondF.  We discussed workouts, golf, The Ticket, California vs. Texas, Sally’s job search, Pepper’s job search, and countless other topics.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Prayed us out


MOLESKIN:

So for me, today was really my VQ… That last one I really co-Q’d with Teasip and he lead the last 15mins or so. I also had him there to help me out if I needed help. Thanks Teasip for nudging me to get in there. It also really helped for today which I’m STILL feeling like was a solid workout. There’s lots of mumble chatter from someone about 100x Burpee’s vs. running 2mi. before we got started. In my planning I didn’t realize that the park doesn’t have “corners really, more like curves. We’re smart men, we figured it out!  Before Lazy Dora Alright Alight stops and asks “does everyone want their partner” (or something along those lines). We’re all offended he would ask… About ¾ the way in I realize Sex Panther and I are about a whole set behind and that he was trying to clue us in. We made it work!
