AO: Delphi
Q: Pop Fly
PAX: K-Pop, Ashe, Wham-O, Nano, Dunder, Peanuts, I-Beam, Doodles, Flapjack, Battleship FNGs: Battleship (counted above cuz he’s already up on Slack) COUNT: 11
WARMUP: mosey lap, SSHs, WMHs, world’s greatest stretch, cherry pickers, merkins

THE THANG: The Pax split into partners and grabbed one coupon

The Q how to set of exercise cards in two piles turned face down. when the cards were flipped over, one from pile one and one from pile two, the packs had to perform the exercises. The kicker was that one pax always had to be exercising with the coupon

Examples of pairings:
Buttkickers and Squats / Run 300yds and Merkins/ Bear Crawl and Freddie Mercury/ 100 Calf Raises and Squat Jumps.

The pax always had to decide what exercise to do with the coupon, and what exercise to do without the coupon…. Making for some interesting choices.

The Pax got an extra round in because the Q has a watch that tells time differently (and more slowly) than the clock at the naval observatory.

MARY: No time. The Q needs to reset his watch and he owes the Pax 5 minutes back at his next Q at Delphi.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Dad’s Camp & Dolly Sods

COT: it’s the extra things of F3 that keep us coming back. we invite all our pax to avail themselves of the extra stuff that goes on within F3… whether it be a cornhole tournament or a ruck, or something else, these events create the bonds that make F3 a more fulfilling experience.

THE THANG: The PAX gathered in the gloom to help a friend move. We headed over to Kodiak’s trailer to unload what was the aftermath of this past weekend’s Grow Ruck events.
There was not insignificant amount of very heavy sandbags that needed to be shuttled over to MajorPayne’s driveway and 3 very large logs. The PAX made quick work of the task and convened at the goal line for more exercises with (comparatively) lighter items: 5 Pull Throughs (IC), Murder Bunny to the 18
10 Bicep Curls (IC), Murder Bunny to half field
15 Blockies, Murder Bunny to the 18
20 Bent Over Rows, Murder Bunny to the goal line
25 Overhead Press

20 Step Ups w/ the coupon
Mosey back to the field for Mary.

MARY: Weezy Jeffersons

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bruce Springsteen is coming to town. Someone should EH that guy.

COT: You find out who your real friends are when you have to move. Additionally, good friends will help you move but BEST friends will help you move a body.

The PAX were rewarded with pizza and beer for their efforts. QIC clearly didn’t order enough food.
