16 gloom warriors posted at NoToll this morning where the weather Sunny and 70 (as usual) with a little extra Humidity Sauce on the side. The PAX showed up to work off some holiday excess and YHC was on a mission to put the monthly challenge goal in reach between this morning and tomorrow morning at W-Dog. This is what went down…
Mosey to the back parking lot for COP, which included SSHs, DQs (extremely slow), Copperhead Squats, Hillbillies (YHC tried his best to impersonate J-ville but there’s nothing like the real thing), LBCs and 25 WWII situps OYO.
Mosey to the pavilion field and line up on the sideline for Black-jack with jump squats and WWII situps (last week’s SOT crew new the pain in store but as I believe Honeymoon said – at least the field is softer than the tennis courts at SOT). Plank-o-rama for the six.
Mosey to the front field for a round of ascending 4-corners. Start in corner #1 with 10 merkins, run to corner #2 and do 10 merkins and 20 WWII situps, run to corner #3 and do 10 merkins, 20 WWII situps and 30 single-count mountain climbers, run to corner #4 and do 10 merkins, 20 WWII situps, 30 mountain climbers and 40 single-count SSHs, run back to corner #1 and Al Gore for the six.
Circle up on the field for a quick merkin ring of fire.
Mosey back to the basketball courts for 5 WWII situps OYO (for an even 300) and a few minutes of mary with box cutters x20 IC and hello dolly x20 IC.
2 minutes left and McRib just wanted to hug, so YHC obliged with 10 Burpees OYO and finish off with 1 minute of superman with some great vocals – 2x through the chorus.
COT, number-rama, name-a-rama, announcements and YHC took us out.
Announcements included:
- VQ week – June 26 – get on the schedule if you haven’t Q’d or try a new AO if you are a Q-regular
- Fudd’s summer soiree (aka stock the bar) – June 10th. RSVP to the pre-blast if you can make it — http://f3nation.com/2017/05/15/pre-blast-summer-soiree-at-fudds-house/
- June 3 Moo and Brew for Crossover Healthcare (see Malpractice) — http://f3nation.com/2017/05/27/preblast-june-3-moo-brew-5k-benefiting-crossover-healthcare-ministry-redskins-training-camp-scotts-addition/
- June 10 Cornhole and Rock N Roll to benefit Reese Strong – see Phonics
- C-ville launch is in full swing and the men of C-ville need a little less Swirly, TYA and Bleeder in their lives, so get a clown car and get to C-ville. Honeydo has this weekend and has 2 spots left (maybe?). Roanoke has June 10, but then RVA has June 17 and June 24, so plan a day trip…BODOS and Rank shoes are just two of the many benefits for making the trip.
- If you have an eagle scout, Flatline says there is a FREE night at Southside Speedway _______
- Prayers out for EF Hutton’s father and Lockjaw’s father-in-law…we are thinking about you guys.
NMS –
Great work today men. The gloom was thick and the sweat was rolling. Great to see BFG and Shakedown posting regularly. BFG was killing the Blackjack today – I see you working BFG – EB! Great to see the New Market clown car continuing to roll strong…apparently Memorial Day is a sleep day in New Market. And McRib appears to have cracked the Hallsley time zone issue.
Some good mumblechatter today men. And, everyone crushed the 4-corners. Great work men. An honor and pleasure to lead as always!
No more Gumbo for you!

Way to work men. Great job. See you in the gloom.
WWII sit-ups are the best.
To finish the announcement from Flatline, cub scouts FREE this Friday at Southside Speedway – get there early and they can go down and check out the cars.
Also, Flatline recommended this as Memorial Day viewing and I just watched it and agree its worth your 6 minutes AYE! — https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tp8z2yJWcEA
Solid beat down for sure Gumbo. I felt it all day!
What an awesome way to start the day. Gumbo way to lead the PAX and I love WWII sit-ups. All members should watch the video linked in Gumbo’s reply.
