Just on the south side of the James River 5 of F3RVA’s finest gathered for some first F fun. Two goals for the day – 1) get in some practice for the Murph; 2) check the track to see if the start of football practice kept the gate open. We achieved both goals and enjoyed the cooler morning along the way.
Mosey over to the front office parking lot for a brief warmup and enjoy the new pavement with a few merkins on the way to the track. Yes, the Swamp is now open. There were some signs warning Flatline to stay off the field, well Flatline wasn’t named specifically but we know what they meant. Sticking to the track with a 4 corners forward and reverso.
Over to the playgound for the Murph Practice – half a round 5 pull ups, 10 merkins, 15 squats, then a sprint across the field and slow mosey (or continued sprint if you’re Doozy) back to the playground. Continue this for 15 minutes – Not sure how many rounds we got done but it was enough.
Closing out with Mary – highlight being the introduction of the Marching APD’s.
Always a pleasure to lead out here, most of us could use more pull-ups in our lives and Twin Team is one of the few where we have a chance so why not take advantage when we can.
-Doozy is heading up to DC on Sept. 11 to run the stairs of the Lincoln Memorial as part of a yearly tradition of the local F3 group and other regions – see him for more info
