  • Baby Arm Circles 20 IC
  • Mosey to Town Square, stop along way to pick up Q’s new favorite UHOs (asymmetrical stones to Buble’s surprise)

 

#TheThang

  • UHOs a HIIT as we do our best Stonehenge impersonation with a circle of pain #PushYourselfButDontHurtYourself #YouAgainstYou:
    • Max squats with UHO in tow, 40 sec, rest 20 sec, discard UHO, max merkins 40 sec, rest 20 sec…rinse & repeat

  • Time to head back to Yard, only a stone’s throw away:
    • Line up at stage, heave UHO forward, squat jump + lunge to UHO, rinse & repeat until reach opposite end of square
  • Return UHOs, Gemini EH impressed bystander with early morning 2.0 stroll, and mosey back to the Yard for COT

 

#COT

  • Where did the UHO’s come from, like Stonehenge a mystery. But we know where they lead, to stronger men.
  • #CountORama & #BoM (Ball of Man)
    • 7 men (Buble early exit), welcome FNG Jordans (the only one who shows up to formal events wearing Jordans).

 

  • Looking Ahead…
  • GrowRuck 03– DRIVER NEEDED > New Orleans June 9-11 combines F3 Grow School with a GoRuck Tough.  This is a custom GoRuck event, which has been specifically designed for F3 to help reinforce the Leadership Development training that the PAX will be exposed to over the course of the GR03. Ruck training is underway – to join the chatter on BAND.
  • Father’s Day Convergence > Saturday, June 17th > Memorial Park (The Hogg).  Normal 0600-0700 and 0700-0800 workouts followed by the 2.0s joining us 0800-0830 and Ms to join for breakfast immediately following.  Invitations to all “Ms” (significant others) and “2.0s” (kids) are highly encouraged, and this would be a chance for more 2ndF.  Need hard commits on BAND > Cruiser bringing breakfast tacos, Camo has kid/adult beverages, Britney bringing donuts, Canon bringing coffee. #MarkYourCalendars
  • Houston Tough Mudder > Nov 11-12th, 2017 >5 Miles, 13 Obstacles, 1 Extraordinary Experience. Even dirtier than the Spartan Race, but just as much of a 2nd F team building experience.  More info here.  #CSAUP
  • Houston Spartan Sprint > March 24th, 2018 > 3-5 miles, 20-23 Obstacles. The Reebok Spartan Sprint: This is our shortest distance. It is perfect for athletes of all levels; from Spartan first timers to seasoned racers. The race is a fantastic test of your physical ability, but an even better 2nd F experience.  More info here. #CSAUP
  • Twitter/BAND:We have a good comms system going for F3 Houston via Twitter and BAND.  Get on either and look up F3 for regular updates and #Mumblechatter. Inferno or one of the other PAX (YHC included) can also help get you hooked up.
