THE THANG – F3 Cornhole, Birthday Edition
Rules:
• Broke into 4 teams of 3
• The throw line is 10 yards from the exercise line and the boards are 7 yards from the throw line.
• Everyone starts performing that round’s exercise while the 1st PAX from each team bear crawls from exercise line to the throw line, throws 4 bags, picks up all 4 of their bags, drops them at the throw line and runs back to their team. • Scoring is 6 points for in the hole and 2 points for on the board.
• Continue to take turns throwing and flapjacking exercises until your team has scored 27 points or more, at which point switch to the 2nd exercise. • Continue until the first team reaches 54.

YHC thought teams were selected at random, but team 1 was getting suspiciously high scores. Testing was performed after their 2nd blowout win and it was clear to the Q that performance enhancing drugs were being used. As a penalty, Jenner’s scoring was reduced to 50% of everyone else’s. This handicap was clearly not sufficient as team 1 went on to win 2 of the final 3 rounds despite their handicap.

Exercises:
Round 1 – Squats / Merkins
Round 2 – Moucho leggos / Shoulder Taps
Round 3 – Mountain Climbers / Toy Soldiers
Round 4 – Monkey Humpers / Burpees
Round 5 – Bobby Hurleys / WWIs

ANNOUNCEMENTS
• The Murph Challenge is this coming Monday, Memorial Day at George Mason • Boneathon Saturday May 31st
• Terrapin Station – Monday beatdowns start Monday June 2
• Convergence is Saturday June 7th at Roosevelt Island. Multiple Qs

COT
• YHC’s 54th birthday is today.
• As I’ve grown older, I’ve learned that not all friendships are equal. The best people to surround yourself with are people who celebrate your progress, challenge your thinking, and push you to be your best self—even when it’s uncomfortable.
• Good friends support you, but the best friends stretch you. They’ll call you out when you’re slacking, not to tear you down, but because they believe you’re capable of more. They’re the ones who clap the loudest when you win. They’ll push you to apply for the job you don’t think you’re qualified for. They’ll nudge you toward the right kind of relationship, not just the convenient one. They’ll remind you of who you are when you forget.
• I want to surround myself with people who inspire me—people who make me want to level up, not just fit in. That’s why I love F3 – leave no man behind and leave no man where you found him. You guys inspire me. Iron sharpens iron.

Firehead summer be the Q Wednesday. Trilogy will Q Friday.

COT:
I just finished the book The Comfort Crisis. Lived it! He described rucking as, “cardio for people who hate to run, and lifting for people who hate the gym.” It corrects for body type. If you’re too big, it’ll lean you out. Too skinny? It’ll add muscle to your frame. This, he explained, is why carrying is the foundation of military fitness training.
