Fifteen F3RVA regulars gathered in the NoToll parking lot for a long-overdue NTB beatdown. One potential FNG cruised through the park during COP #1 and would have stayed had Orange Crush not scared him away. This is what he observed from a safe distance:
Warmarama
- Circle up on the basketball court. OC crushed (pun intended) the F3 mission statement and we proceeded with various IC warm-up exercises.
COP #1 – Suicide Bear
- Line up along the baseline for bear crawl suicides with a Bernie back to the starting line.
- At the far baseline we started with 12 merkins and then decreased the merkin count each time a line was reached.
- Working 12 merkins down to 1 equaled three bear crawl suicides in total.
- The wet conditions definitely increased the bear crawl difficulty and much was said about how long we spent on the court.
COP #2 – Heavy Cindy the Prostitute
- Mosey down to the dumpster enclosure to pick up cindy’s for the following four corners, prostitute style:
- Corner 1: 10 curls for the gurls
- Corner 2: 10 cindy squats
- Corner 3: 10 cindy rows
- Corner 4: 10 cindy ground-to-overhead
- To quote RVA’s new Nantaan, this really sucked! Carrying a cindy the whole time and then moving it a different way at each corner kept us under load for the full duration.
- Two styles of cindy were available, heavy and heavier. By the end we were struggling. Respect also to the guys nursing injuries who wisely modified as needed to ensure a solid four corners beatdown.
- Mosey back to the flag, stopping briefly to pay the toll with 10 dips and 10 single count step-ups.
COT
- Numbers, names, announcements, and prayer requests. YHC took us out!
- Sober October starts today! Join the 15+ HIMs electing to abstain from a vice this month. See Slack for the dedicated channel.
- Prayers for Orange Crush’s coworker who is screening for potential cancer ten years after beating it the first time.
- Prayers for the NTB’s who are four-weeks out from welcoming another baby girl into the family.
- Praise for Lone Wolf’s dad’s knee surgery!
- After spending his adult life working as a mason to earn a living to put his three kids through college, his knee was overdue for a replacement. Yesterday his own son, Lone Wolf’s brother, performed the surgery on his dad. How fitting that we also put in a little block work today.
