An elite 8 clocked for a beatdown idea that looked much better on paper. Light mumble chatter as the clock neared 0500 with a pair rolling in right at the top of the hour. Quick circle up to grab a coupon and mosey half way down Ridge for COP. Exercise I: Coupon Dora quick COP to get a taste of the humidity; partner up for Dora runners to and from the triangle parklet on ridge and back to down to Country Squire. exercises were 100 alternating merkins on the coupon, 200 coupon presses (bench or push) and 300 200 coupon…

A PAX of two met on Zoom for 3rd F. To account for over preparing last time, YHC underprepared. YHC had prepared a bit of trivia about some of the “bizarre” stories of the Bible. Florence’s knowledge of the scriptures is stunning. It was great to get to know him a bit better. Where two or more are gathered… Put the next 3rd F on your calendar: June 22nd at 8pm on Zoom. Any ideas for multi-access/HyFlex gatherings? Send them my way. Perhaps we could take this 3rd F on the road and have a blend of in-person and virtual…
The traffic on the trails is picking up. Gomer and Saab hit the roads at blazing speeds. Helix and YHC went Buttermilk to TPot to Northbank, picking up Sippy and K9 Penny there. The PAX reconvened at the parking lot. YHC bets Penny will fit right in with Peeta, Sally, Parker, and the other F3 K9s. The mayor is still missing – the PAX hopes TYA’s heals quickly.
A solid 18-PAX posted to NoToll in breezy fair weather to play some Ultimate Frisbee. Here’s how 9v9 played out: The THANG: The light colors were down a man briefly until Fresh Prince showed up, and then Light and Dark teams exchanged touchdown for touchdown until they were about 3-3… that’s when the Light team pulled away and despite a couple more worthy touchdowns by the Dark team, the Light jersey’d gents won the day. CONGRATS!!! There were a LOT of highlights for the morning, but the one that stands out was Beaker (Respect) running across the end zone to…
A solid Pax of 9 arrived for a muggy morning at Heartbreak Ridge. Here’s what went down, more or less. Mosey to the side of the school for COP – SSH, imperial walkers, Don Quixotes, arm circles, merkins and LBCs. Head to the elementary school for a DORA (even though we had the perfect triple check numbers). After some confusion, we did our 100 burpees, 200 reverse crunches and 300 squats. Mosey back to middle school for a round of AMRAP pull ups, with the rest of the Pax doing sets of dips. Next we did 3 rounds of Jerkins…
2 Hardy Broga veterans arrived at the courts of No Toll early for a pregame Broga session. Before the real competition began, PAX went through a series of leg and body stretches that resulted in numerous groans. All was good as no injuries were reported once we stepped back down to the beginner level. Great work this morning.
18 men of power and commitment shluffed off whatever allure the Fart Sack may still possess and posted with pride to the latest edition of The Spider Run.

Warm Up included SSH’s, DQ’s, Dead Man Hang, One Legged Merkins, Plank Jack Merkins, Freddie Mercury’s along with some mild Broga to get the relaxation started.
