21 F3RVA gloom warriors, an out of town visitor (Slim) and an FNG met the dawn this morning to sweat it out at WDog. It went a little something like this:
COP
20 SSH
10 Don Quixotes
10 Helicopters
10 Russian Soldiers
10 Merkins
some Manteo Yoga (as Vinny put it)
20 LBCs
10 Hillbillies
Mosey to the stage for a Dora – 100 Merkins, 200 WW2s, 300 squats – partner runs the perimeter of the Amphitheatre
down to the Orchestra pit for some box jumps – 1 jump first step, 1 jump second step then a decline merkin. 2 jumps 3rd step, 2 jumps 4th step then an incline merkin – continue the pattern. Turns out YHCs directions were both too forceful and not clear enough. GP understood, the rest caught on.
Mosey to Rusty Cage. 4 chin over bar (don’t care how you get it) run to hydrant 1 Burpee. Then 3/2 and so on. Mosey back to Flag two minutes late. I owe you guys two minutes. YHC took us out
lots of hard work and some grumbling this morning. Good clean fun. Glad to have Slim in from NC who checked in on Twitter last night and always glad to have an FNG. Welcome Freakanomics. He’s gonna need some rides to workouts – see Offshore.

Always a pleasure. Sorry I didn’t have more time. Sorry if I disappointed anyone by not doing more burpees ?
Nice job Shakedown – Props to our boy Vinny for running to the AO this morning – well done dude I see ya buddy !
Way to work guys.
See y’all in the gloom..
Yeah, no doubt – I forgot to mention that. Well done sir.
Fun times Shakesown. Great work by all
Thanks brother! Wouldn’t have done it without all the inspiration, and leadership by example. Shakedown didn’t do me any favors with all that running once I got there though. 🙂
I ran to an AO. Then ran at the AO. Then ran back home from the AO. 🙂
Great Q Shakedown. Manteo Yoga is what’s up! I’m crushed. That was an adult sized Dora.
Solid Q Shakedown. Way to roll through the mumble chatter. 21 is a solid number for WDog. Awesome to see Periscope crushing it. Big congrats to Bootleg for the half marathon this past weekend. I shared with him that I carried a defibrillator to the first 10 workouts he did. Way to make huge strides. And Vinny, running to a workout is flipping awesome. Have a great day fellas!!
Looks like a Shakedown Q brings all the boys to the yard….great job today!
Pretty sure I didn’t follow the pattern correctly for the box jump, merkin ascent…but I was still hurtin’ anyway when I made it to the top.
His car wouldn’t start
Well done gents. Tclaps Vinny!
Don’t jinx me.
Good job!
Great Q, Shakedown! I convinced Buttermaker to make that drive from the west end this morning (also tried to convince him to lose the long sleeves…I believe he’s learning), as W-Dog does not disappoint. You, my friend, nailed it! Have a great evening, Gents.
You expected more burpees, sorry about that…
I’m don’t think there is a better Q/AO combination to introduce an FNG to F3. Thanks Shakedown.
Hell of a compliment. Thanks Offshore
