THANG

Count off 1’s and 2’s and partner up.  Partner 2 grabs a coupon and everybody meets in the Pavillion.

To celebrate the Resurrection, we begin with a rousing rendition of Handel’s Messiah (HWV 56) performed by the Mormon Tabernacle Choir – a four minute chorus.  Run in place and burpee every time the Tabernacle Choir sings “Hallelujah”.  It should have been right about 60 over the 4 minutes, but they come in hot and heavy at certain times so a few might have been missed.  Noted classical musical expert Ludwig didn’t miss a single one though.  I even think he was nailing the harmonies in the background when the sopranos were singing Hallelujah.  Unbelievable.  I see you Ludwig.

Partner Dora – Partner 1 runs a loop while Partner 2 does the following.  Switch out.  Plank and wait after Partner 2 returns from their jog so that we all stay together, both for a few socials sprinkled in and also just a general sense of togetherness – can’t have the Floppy D/PSL combo racing out ahead of everybody.

Happy Jacks (4 SSH  then 2 squat jumps in perpetuity until partner arrives)

Elf on the Shelf (Coupon wood choppers)

I – American Indian Run Social

Swings with Coupons, which sounds like a great dance troupe name for a group of middle aged mothers that swing dance after grocery shopping for the week.

Russian Dips (Dips on benches alternating one leg up with each dip)

Inch worms.  Too much confusion and mumble chatter during this.  I will do better.

Simbas – Squat and overhead lift with coupon.

‘ – Time constraints eliminated the second “E,” which would have been an Escalator social.  Dammit Handel.

Noodling for catfish (bench push up then reach under with one hand at bottom and get that big ole boy with your free hand)

Mosey to parking lot, end with 10 Good Mornings for Donuts’ tender legs.

Great work today everybody.  Thanks for showing up and kicking ass.  My Garmin said we ran 3.4 total and I trust satellites.  A really good cadence on the runs as well, whether we were running the loop or cutting it short by turning around at Brett’s “Piece of shit truck” (credit Donuts).

COT – I have a lot of trouble with F3 names and general F3 protocol.  I’ll get there.

Bullhorn – First Friday lunch at Cookery this Friday at 11:30.  Be there.  It’s a great mission and they make it insanely easy for our large, staggered-arriving group to order and pay on our own.  Floppy will be getting some Nashville F3 gear up on the site in the near future.  Rumors of tank tops and ranger panty’s sent the group into a real tizzy.  Go Ruck Death March is coming up; I believe this Friday.  See Slack for details.

BOM – Grateful for the small miracles this Easter season, like walking out of bed every morning and having a healthy family.  Important to not lose sight of those.

Great work.
