THE DECISION

YHC wasn’t exactly sure what to expect with a forecast of cold and snow. The travel would be tough and the weather tougher, so decisions had to be made by the men of F3. The first to roll in from the Hwy 24 corridor was Buckeye. We remembered how cold Monday was with the wind blowing hard that day. Squid slid in next. We gathered and the countdown began 3, 2, 1 when Monkey Wrench doing his best Pasqually imitation rolled in at the one minute mark. What F3 stood for was stated and mission statement given. YHC told the men that he would try and keep them out of the wind, and be mindful of feet and hands getting cold. I believe it was Squid who reminded us that we should know what we are getting into on a day like today. The PAX didn’t realize at that very moment Sniffer was calling F3 nation trying to get a ride to the AO. He apparently was iced out of all his available vehicles. All dressed up with no where to go

Warm-A-Rama

Mosey down the snow covered road to the first intersection for SSHx20, Wind Millsx15, and Sun Godsx15 each way. Of course YHC had led us into a perfect wind tunnel. Promises already broken. Mosey up the main drag to the next street light for Cotton Pickersx15, Goof Ballsx15, a new exercise YHC found on the Exicon. Thanks Squid for input on doing them properly and yes you look like a goof ball, and Good Morningsx12. Mosey to the first main intersection.

THE THANG

Clock Merkins x 10 each stop, 12, 3 ,6 and 9 plus it made a pretty pattern in the snow. Gas Pumps, SC, x20, and Dancing Chilcuttx15. Squid said it seemed more ice dancing than chilcutt

Mosey up the road a ways. Plank Jacksx15 IC, WW1”sx20, Mountain climbersx15 IC. Mosey to where the two roads meet for “Big Sexy” Pickle Poundersx15 IC, Monkey Humpersx15 IC, Boss Tweedsx15 IC. Mosey to the pool parking lot for Forrest to the Sea, starting with 5 burpees and working your way down. Head back stopping for another round of Big Sexy. Mosey down the road to the next stop while listening to Squid tell us of his merkin challenge. He and a buddy are doing 100 merkins each day for 30 days and said we are on our way. Stop for another round of Plank Jacks, WW1’s and Mountain Climber. Mosey down the road and stop for another round of Clock Merkins, Gas Pumps and Good Mornings. Mosey back to the start but Squid reminded us that we only had 4 mekins to do to reach 100. Stop and do 4 merkins as a group, 100. Mosey to the road to check the conditions and do a round of Big Sexy for those brave enough to be on the road. No one honked so we completed the entire unit.Back to the start.

One minute left so we hit some American Hammersx20 Hard Stop or Freeze

Workouts tomorrow Rucky Duck for the I don’t have to work crowd at 2pm. The Hashmark with Squid and the Stampede will happen.

YHC took us in prayer as Squid reminded us that there are still men and women fighting a war and we should not forget them, Aye. Give God all the glory for all we have and let us use it for the growing of his kingdom and his glory.

YHC was proud to lead a group of dedicated men, who were not locked out of their cars. It is a pleasure to meet different men and find out a little more about each other. Monkey called for coffee, which is a great 2^nd F but I don’t think any of us could make it. It wasn’t til I got home I thought, What is open?
