Return to The Estate…but why?

Return to The Estate…but why?

QIC: Wobegon

Date: 3-28-2023

PAX: Starfish, Bam, Schlitz

Redline will push you to your running limits and add some pep to your next run.

Flatline will keep you moving for a solid 45 minutes and leave the best pax gassed.

Parliment will give your core, arms, and legs all they need without running, making WeFoCo stronger each week.

The only thing our Tuesday options are missing? A standard “pearls on a string,” some running, some resistance work BootCamp. Would that attract more pax to post Tuesdays? Would it be a complementary option to the other excellent Tuesday beatdowns? Does the nostalgia for the old Estate AO still live? Bottom line: would adding this option help achieve the mission of F3?

Only one way to find out; let’s try it. I’ve often heard Van Gogh say something to the effect of “F3 is what we make it” and “if you want it, call for it.” So, YHC ran it by the 1st F Q (more on him later) and decided to give it a shot. It went like this:

Warm-O-Rama with all the favorites.

Let’s mosey. Pax chatted along the way to the small parking lot on the edge of WFU campus.

Plank up in a circle, circle up, and plank, however, you want to say it.

IC:

• 10 merkins
• 15 squats
• 20 Carolina Dry Docks
• 25 Squats
• 30 Alternating Shoulder Taps

Recover, and mosey, back to the end of the Connector trail in the Village.

Mix of OYO and IC:

• 10 burpees
• 15 alternating lunges
• 20 Mountain Climbers
• 25 Hill Billys
• 30 Freddy Mercurys

Mosey! Ended up at the parking spaces along the green by Reynolda House.

• Bear Crawl one space one merkin. Repeat for a total of 15 spaces.
• Recover walk to the marker sign, then mosey to the gate.

The gate area was much darker than I recall.

• 10 wide Merkins
• 15 Copper Head Squats
• 20 Parker Merkins
• 25 Over Head Calsp
• 30 Dying Cockroaches

Mosey back to start. Mary by committee.

And done.

COT:

• Keep prayers around the Dixon family
• Super Fly, injury keeping him out
• Whatever kept Burns from keeping his HC this morning
• All those we have not seen out in a while, hoping we see them again

YHC feels this could be a nice addition to our rotation; this ain’t a dictatorship, so let’s see what everyone thinks. The good news is, while in absentia, Burns volunteered to Q next Tuesday at the Estate, as YHC will be at Flatline on the Q.  Nantan overrules the Slackbot burpee penalty in favor of this.

Does anyone know where we left the keys to the AO? Does Toe Tag still have them? Maybe they can be found next week.
