Brick fest!

A lucky 13 posted for the morning ritual at Mary Munford.  Treats were promised and treats there were, in the form of hand made bricks from the 1900’s.  Two per PAX to accompany them on their beatdown journey today.

Moleskin:

Great to have Goldberg back for his second F3 workout.  He acquitted himself well today, despite the fact that he is battling a hamstring issue.  He showed up just in time, on his bike as he only lives a few blocks from the AO.  We look forward to seeing him at more workouts in the future.  Also, he is a great addition to the team as he is a Dr. and can (maybe) fix the minor aches and pains that he PAX are experiencing?

Several of the PAX had difficulty with their companions today.  I shall mention no names, but you know who you are.  Despite the rumor that bricks are strong, several of the PAX broke several of their bricks today.  YHC thinks maybe they were trying to lighten their load during the workout.

Russian twists are a real crowd pleaser.  Although YHC is a huge fan, the amount of grumbling and huffing and puffing goes way up when Russian Twists are called.  For some reason, they seem to  be the achilles heel of a majority of the Richmond PAX.  Must mean we should do more and more of them going forward.

TYA was on the brink of having a wardrobe malfunction this morning.  He broke out his 1980’s short shorts for the workout and although they were a crowdpleaser with the tomatoes, they did not keep all appropriate gear in the appropriate place.  Those shorts are now being retired.

Announcements:

Tshirts available on the website.  Order as many as you can so we can all get the new designs

TYA is organizing Rugged Maniac on October 10.  Let him know if you are interested.

June 6th we are having a visitor at our workout at Dogpile.  Come one and all if you can so we can get some great positive publicity for F3 RVA.
