Get After It:

Indian Run around the main building. PAX do 5 Merkins prior to beating feet to the front. Then stopped at the Ball Field for some Front, Back Go’s (Merkins, Flutter Kicks, Sprints on command), Tunnel of Love (low crawl under PAX), and Crowd Surfing. It was at this point Q realized he did not pace his exercises well enough and had 15 minutes to fill. Resorted to Plan B and pulled out the playing cards. Diamonds – Squats, Spades – Hillbilly Walkers, Hearts – Crab Legs, Clubs – Merkins, Ace – x35 dealer’s choice. Due to consistent shuffling of the deck, many many Merkins were performed.

BH:

413 last day. Wolverine and (Kingpin? Snoopy?) are already hard at work. Our remaining Marvel heroes begin work soon. Our pride, encouragement, and prayers will follow them. AO will be closed for a month. See Q signup sheet for future dates.

Today we honored Sgt. Zachary D. Tellier, 31, of Charlotte was a combat infantryman with the 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, 4th Brigade Combat Team, at Fort Bragg. He died Sept. 29, 2007 of wounds sustained while on a ground patrol in Afghanistan.

The previous April, Tellier’s unit was conducting a mounted patrol when one of its vehicles drove over and detonated a bomb, which set the vehicle on fire, according to a statement from the 82nd Airborne.

Tellier pulled two paratroopers out of the vehicle to safety, suffering severe burns to his hands. He was awarded the Bronze Star Medal with valor for his actions.

After he was burned, Tellier jumped up in the turret to return fire, said Sgt. Michael Layton, a member of Tellier’s unit. A lieutenant made Tellier get out of the vehicle because of his injuries, Layton said.

“Zachary Tellier has to be the biggest hero I’ve ever known or heard of, not just because of what he did, but because of his personality,” Layton said. “He came in the Army because he wanted to be around soldiers and serve his country, and he paid the ultimate sacrifice.”

Tellier is survived by his wife, Sara Tellier of Atlanta, Ga.; his father, David W. Tellier of Groton, Mass.; and his mother, Pamela Rodriguez, of Falmouth, Mass.

Thank you for the opportunity to lead you men this morning.

God Bless,

Hot and humid but a little bit of rain at beginning to cool us off.  Wolverine of the current 4:13 strong class stepped up to VQ with YHC.

Pax: Wolverine co-vq, Porcelain co-q, red skull, bagger Vance, PA, casual friday(FNG), kingpin aka snoopy(lifo?), reveille, toga, skid mark, pop-a-lock, sinestro, night crawler, venom, killmonger, hot and ready, vegemite, umbrella, donuts, dilly dilly

Warmarama: Wolverine led us off with a swift mosey down and up the stairs then to the softball field.  Disclaimer administered by Porcelain.  Wolverine cycled us through good mornings, merkins, squats, and a final round of good mornings.

The thang: Wolverine took charge in setting up the first exercise by calling for everyone to buddy up.  Set up a Dora variation with partner sprints to the outfield fence and back to the dugout bench where the exercises were 100 merkins, 100 step-ups (both legs = one rep, and 100 sit-ups.

Porcelain picked up a mosey back back to the basketball courts then established a last man up Indian run out and back.  It was a setup for log training.  Broke into a short and tall groups with 4:13 pax in charge.  Demonstrated lift with tall team on the first log aka telephone pole.  The team managed to get up to hip simply enough but struggled with 10 pax to shoulder so YHC called the short team on the log as well and repeated 8 reps of shoulder to overhead as a full workout before carefully crushing but not breaking toes on the down.  Foregoing further pain on the log for safety’s sake.

YHC set up 11’s on the basketball court with 10 burpees on the far end followed by 1 jump squat on the near end and continuing OYO.  Called 11’s short around 2/3’s through to keep time for Mary as I wanted to give more of the 4:13 pax time to lead.

Mary: Around the circle for 20 reps of abs decided on and cadence called by the 4:13 pax.  Wolverine led off with sit-ups.  Peter Parker’s were called by night crawler.  We all were feeling a little fog of war at that point so all was well with Venom finishing it off with squats.

Welcome Ed aka Casual Friday that is helping out our brothers in the evenings with a support group.

A little tailgate coffeeteria was had with PA, toga, red skull, pop-a-lock, venom, Wolverine, skid mark, vegemite, umbrella, and porcelain.

Reveille on Q next week for the last stronghold workout before this class graduates to take on different jobs around town many involving construction.  Come by to give them a great send off.  If you have never been in on a Reveille workout get ready for some pain.

75 degrees and 1,000% humidity greeted the 6 PAX who posted for a 4.4 mile run this morning. Ideal conditions for endurance.

PAX: Floppy Disk, Edible Arrangements, Skid Mark, Too Tall, Donuts/D’Mish, Ludwig

Pace was roughly 7:40 a mile, but it felt like 7:15 in the heat and humidity.

Good work by all.

PAX: Funyuns, Skid Mark, Trojan, Canary, A-Fib, Offshore, Black Widow, Umbrella, Olan Mills

9 post for a muggy 72° start for the official launch of the Purple Cow.

Drop for a quick 5 burpees before we mosey over to the park.

Circle up in the middle of the soccer field for disclaimer and getting the party started.

Q: Olan

• SSH x20
• Good Mornings x10
• Willie Mays Hays x10
• Baby Arm Circle x10
• Rev Baby Arm Circles x10
• Merkins x10

Q: Umbrella

11’s – Single leg squats each leg + Burpees running the length of the soccer field. My guesstimate is that field is a long’ish 75yds… enough to hurt.

Q: Black Widow

Mosey to picnic tables for dips, arkins, Derkins (20/15/10) rinse and repeat

Mosey to basketball court for some 4 corners bear crawling the length and crawl bearing the width with merkins x10 at each corner.

Q: Offshore

Mosey to swings for swirkins x10 & rows x10 rinse and repeat, rinse and repeat.

Mosey to monkey bars for a few sets of pull-ups x5.

Q: Olan

Mosey back to the parking lot incorporating some side shuffle and backpedaling.

Flutter kick for the six. Wrapped up with some Alabama Prom Dates, J-Lo’s, WWI’s, High plank with some alternating arms and finally some Good Mornings.

Great launch guys. Looking to get some more b’wood dudes out there.

Brentwood Baptist has an upcoming adoption picnic if anyone is interested.

PAX: Reveille, Afib, Skid Mark, Black Lung, Edible Arrangements, Too Tall, Frogger, Donuts/D’Mish, Dilly Dilly, Ludwig (Q)

A record 10 PAX (at least a record since I started posting two years ago) posted at smokeboots this morning for a nice muggy run through the shire. Apparently Reveille was unaware this was a running only workout. No matter.

During the first mile Donuts shared a great story about pranking his future sister-in-law at her bachelorette party. After the big hill 4 PAX continued on the 4.4 mile route, and the other 6 ventured off onto the 3.1 mile route.

We all eventually ended up back at CHE for COT/BOM.

Good work by all.

QIC: Iditarod
PAX: Papa Juan, Noble Virus, Scraps, Aristotle, Yosef, Mr. Roboto, Ace, Grohl

In celebration of 1 year of F3 in the Boro YHC put the bat signal out to see how many PAX we could muster. PAX started with a lap around the courthouse and some goading from either and inebriated lady or a tweaking woman. Noble Virus was no better at distinguishing the difference than YHC. Another lap of politicians in which said woman thought she could keep up if we continued running backwards. Some mumble chatter began to ensure about relocating to another part of the AO. But the Pax wax not to be thwarted this AM.

WOR:
GMs, WMH, Daisy Pickers, BACFandR, SSH

The Thang:
Cooper-Start with 10 of each-Burpees, Merkins, Squats then a lap around courthouse. Repeat with descending reps until a 1 count.- We sufficiently ran off the drunk/tweakers by the time we got good into this. All pax finshed by 23 minutes-Much shorter than the 1 time we tried it.
Yosef led the overachieving PAX in MARY until the 6 arrived.
Then Mosey to new courthouse for a these/those merkin pyramid of sorts. Cobains for YHCs vagueness in exercise description.
Brief plank session and YHC solicited testimonial/oprah bombs from PAX.
Mosey back to Courthouse

Happy 1 YR F3 Murfreesboro,
