10 men of the gloom (including a returning visitor from Charlotte) descended upon SOT and with no Q on the sheet, YHC took the reigns for a hot potato that went like this:
Mosey down the hill toward the dark parking lot for COP, including:
- DQs
- Helicpoters
- SSHs
- Merkins
- LBCs
The THANG:
Gumbo Q –
4 Corners — On the track, using the lightposts at the 100 meter marks perform the following:
- Corner 1 – 10 merkins
- Corner 2 – 10 merkins, 20 jump squats
- Corner 3 – 10 merkins, 20 jump squats, 30 2-ct flutter kicks
- Corner 4 -10 merkins, 20 jump squats, 30 2-ct flutter kicks and 40 SSHs
- back to Corner 1 and plank for six
Alternating Shoulder Taps IC x10
Triple Check – Partner 1 – merkins, Partner 2 – box cutters, Partner 3 – run up the steps and to the wall of the school and back down. Three times through.
Pass the Q to Sugar Sock
11s on the big hill – 1 merkin at the bottom, run to the top, 10 captain thors, run back down +1/-1 at each until you get to 10/1. Man that hill got ugly after about 5 sprints up.
Pass the Q to DK
Bearimeter – to the Tennis Courts and partner up. One partner bear crawls counter-clockwise while the other partner runs clockwise. Swap when you meet. Continue until you complete the bearimeter.
Mary – Just enough time for 10 dieing cockroaches IC.
COT, COR, NOR and YHC took us out.
Announcements:

NMS:
Great to see big numbers at SOT. Let’s keep the momentum. Also, great to see Bobber back out and Mr. Roper apparently recovered from Monday’s run. Bullseye and DK are posting frequently. Always great having Wedding Singer embrace his SOJness and fly a little further south for a posting. And Gatekeeper was back out. All good men. All good!
Also, thanks to F3-Dana from Charlotte for joining us again. You are of course welcome any time.
Strong work by all this morning. Particularly by Tobit on the 11s – I don’t know how you had that much left in the tank man, but you crushed those 11s.
Have a great day men.
No More Gumbo For You!

Great job guys. HP Qs always are killer.
By my count we did 115 merkins plus however many you did during your turn at the Triple Check
11s on that hill are no joke.
Right around the 6/5 round, my mind started drifting around an audible, but this is F3. We do the work.
Great effort by all, as that was more difficult than imagined.
Nice to see so many out at SOT this morning! And great hot potato Q by Gumbo, Sugar Sock, and DK! …I was wiped.
Singer and I attempted 11s on the hill a few weeks ago at SOT. We didn’t finish…either time ran out or he called a merciful audible. Either way, I was glad it ended. Thanks Sugar Sock for bringing it back.
