Ohhh man, did 4:45 come early this morning! Yeah, Monday’s….not my usual start to and F3 week.
But, when it’s your time to Q, you get your “John Brown hind parts” out of bed and get to work! ( Thank you @Turnover and @DenzelWashington )
Let us begin:
Rolled up into the VI parking lot with the Site Q by my side. Per usual, we noticed how dark the parking lot was and thought about how good coffee would be.
Pulled a little closer and the dreams of coffee faded.
3 pre-runners were already out and another car was pulling in behind us.
Warm-O-Rama:
Recited the Mission Statement and 5 CP.. ( It was a little rusty, but got it all covered ).
SSH, IST….slight “pause” as the 3 runners joined us…, Abe Vagoda, Whirly, Arm Swirly F&B, Moroccan Nightclub.
The THANG:
Originally when I signed up to Q, I thought…” huh, 9-9-24…that could be fun?” Had a few thoughts in mind about different “fun with 9’s” theme. Well, that went right out the window, probably due to procrastination.
So we did something completely different. But I did keep with the 9, 99, 90’s ish theme for the playlist. So there’s that…
The name of the game was going to be a ladder of sorts. But it was going to be an endless ladder, always moving up.
Start with:
2 Burpees, 4 Merkins, 6 Air Squats, and 8 Bonnie Blairs ( Jumping Lunges \ September challenge item ). Once complete, run to the end of the parking lot and back.
And then___do it again, but double it.
4 Burpees, 8 Merkins, 12 Air Squats and 16 Bonnie Blairs.
Rince and repeat until time.
We did A LOT of rounds. I completely lost count on how many rounds we got in, but there were a lot of smiling faces ( I think ). Maybe not. Could have been the lack of oxygen.
I double checked with the Site Q and he confirmed we got in 304 Bonnie Blairs.
And with 1:30 to spare, the Q called for….
Mary:
Quickly did some LBC’s until 6:15. TIME.
COT:
Name-O-Rama.
Announcements: Spicoli has the Q at Mayhem on Wednesday. Climb to Remember is right after. ( Sign in at 6:00 am, climb begins at 6:30 ). Cruiser had the Q at Parliament tomorrow. You don’t want to miss it!
Prayers: Mental health battles, Injured PAX, Unspoken Prayers.
YHC took us out.
NMM:
3 runners ( Cowboy, 60, and Seaman ) came in hot! Looked like they were doing the 100 yard dash. And then they knocked out this workout. #BeastMode
Spicoli shot me a message on Slack letting me know he would be there. My eyes don’t work in the morning that well….I saw it after. He and Cruiser were out front most of the morning.
Crash was cruising through this one. Said at the beginning of the workout that he didn’t get the memo about bringing a pick up truck to the workout.. LOL.
Schneider was not very happy with the Q about the Burpees….but we did get to chat briefly about the upcoming F3 Golf outing. ( Sign up guys!! It’s on Slack )
Lot’s of great mumblechatter. Great group of men.
Very thankful to get to catch up with them this morning.
Thank you gentlemen for allowing me to lead.
@cruiser I don’t even know if VI had a set of keys. Crowbar always works for me.
Until next time…. Adobe – OUT.
