Rings Of Fire + Dogeball @Olympus 6.5.21

AO: The Patriot

QIC: CableGuy
The PAX: Rooster, Joint Chiefs, YNAB, Slider, Nano, Lansbury, Zeus, Hightower, Citrus, Nano, Toolbox, Swish, Switch, Yardsale, Glee
WarmUp: Side Straddle Hop, Itty Bitty Arm Circle, Willie Mayes Hayes, Cherry Picker, Down Dog, Cobra Kai
The Thang: Pax ran a fellowship lap then circled up at mid field for two rings of fire, each separated by a 400M fellowship lap. One pax bear crawled around the circle while the others alternated an exercise. Round is complete when each Pax has crawled:
Merkins (OMC) (modified to Overhead Clap OMC) / Body Weight Squats (OMC)
<400M lap>
Alternating Shoulder Tap (IC) / Jump Squats (OMC)
<400M lap>

Pivot to Dogeball – courtesy of @Citrus. Named for cryptocurrency Dogecoin – where nothing is certain and nothing is guaranteed. Everybody lines up with a partner for a traveling exercise to the opposite goal line. Pairs get two attempts at a throw-and-catch to cover some of that distance. If the pass is not completed, it’s five burpees from the spot of the pass and resume from that spot. Hold Al Gore when you reach the opposite end zone. Traveling exercises were Bear Crawl and Lunge Walk. On the way back: face off 10 yards apart and toss ’em. Every time the ball hits the ground it’s a Burpee.

Mary: LBC, Flutter Kick, Freddie Mercury
COT: Won’t always succeed, but if you quit you never will. Thanks for being out here and motivating me and showing no quit whatsoever. I’ve missed you Olympus PAX!

COT:
It has been about one year since COVID-19 social distancing restrictions set it. As you remember, it was a time of change and uncertainty. F3 workout groups halted nation-wide for over two months. I had been attending #atlantis with @Deflator as the site-Q. @Grease Monkey EH’d me into coming to my first F3 workout at #atlantis, and then again in July after F3 workouts resumed with social distancing restrictions. Honestly, F3 is not something that comes naturally. Props to all you are self-motivated to come out and join us. More often, those men most in need of us will need to be invited and encouraged to participate in our workouts. Do not feel guilty—EH someone, and they will thank you afterward.
