• When: 08/03/17
• QIC: Haggis
• The PAX: Morphius (HHH), Cannon, The Mick (R – DR NWind), Britney, Picabo (FNG), Beta, Hammer Time, Inferno, HookUp (R), Shoog, Boring, Pace Car, Olaf, Whiskey (R), Scalpel, Backhoe, Rosebowl, JR Ewing, Two Dinners, Fresh Prince, Cruiser (RR), Mullet (FNG), Brownbag (DR NOLA), Neo, Duggar, & Haggis (VQ)

Overview: 26 PAX including 2 FNGs and 2 DRVs were given their neeps and tatties by VQ Haggis in the gloom of #theHogg.  Mumble chatter was high at the outset, but quickly died down as Haggis slowly unleashed a double claymore of pain on the PAX.

Condition

Nice and sticky 78 degrees & 85% humidity

Disclaimer

I am most certainly not a professional. F3 workouts are FREE – you are here of your own free will.  It’s you against you.  Push yourself but don’t hurt yourself. Modify as needed. Notify the Q or rest of PAX if any medical conditions arise.

Warm up – Kicked off with an easy mosey through the houses northeast of the parking lot.  Added in some Side Shuffle (L/R), Butt Kickers and High Knees for variety.  Tried to keep mumble chatter to a respectable decibel range to avoid disturbing our friendly neighbors.

Circle of Pain –

• Grass Grabber x 15 IC
• Side Shuffle Hop x 20 IC
• Merkins x 15 IC
• The Lunge x 20 IC (with an early reset as VQ screwed up the cadence)

Mosey to parking lot near flags

The Thang

Line up on kerb facing across the width of the parking lot.  This section has 3 elements with ‘recovery’ shuttle jog/sprint in between.

OYO

1. 20 x Little Baby Crunches.  Jog/sprint half way across parking lot, turn around, and jog/sprint back.  Jog/sprint full width of parking lot, turn around and jog/sprint back
2. 20 x High Knees (box jumps without box). Jog/sprint half way across parking lot, turn around, and jog/sprint back.  Jog/sprint full width of parking lot, turn around and jog/sprint back
3. 10 x Burpee. Jog/sprint half way across parking lot, turn around, and jog/sprint back.  Jog/sprint full width of parking lot, turn around and jog/sprint back

Rinse and repeat 5 times.  Mumble chatter was very rare at this point….

Brief recovery time (count of 10), then mosey double apple sauce with what was supposed to be Indian Running (dissension in the ranks or unheard at the back?), instead regular mosey round the grass area of the play park (two times), stopping at intervals for some more Merkins, LBCs, and ‘Freedom’ Burpees (OYO).

Circle up round the flags for a short warm down stretch – IC 11 x Grass Grabber, & 9 x Lunges (correct cadence this time)
