Quick mosey to Sunnyside Mansion to show them that we’re all Men from U.N.C.L.E. This phase of the workout honors Jesse “Uncle” Wilker who flew in from Charlotte, NC to teach a handful of us about F3 and prep us for launch approximately 3650 days ago.

Partner up. With P1 running a lap around Sunnyside Mansion, P2 performs reps of the following exercises until they reach 100 cumulative for each.
– Uneven Merkins (aka Staggered Merkins)
– Newton’s Cradle (2 is 1)
– Carolina Dry Docks
– Lunges (1 is 1)
– Elbows to Knees (alternating sides every 10 reps or so)

Abs of choice while waiting for six.

Mosey to Tennis Courts

Line up along court #1 doubles sideline for some shuttle runs. PAX perform 10 jump squats followed by a shuttle run to center service line, court #2 doubles sideline, court #2 center service line, and court #2 far doubles sideline. Drop one rep and repeat all the way down to 1 Jump Squat and a shuttle.

Sticking around the courts, PAX circled up for everybody’s favorite jerk, Jack Webb: Merkins and Air Presses in a 1:4 ratio. We took this one all the way up to 10:40, and everyone LOVED it.

Mosey to Sunnyside Hill

Lining up with previous partner at the base of the hill, P1 performed LBCs while P2 sprinted up to the flag. RnR x 3.

Since we didn’t get here alone, one last AYG with everybody together up the hill before a mosey back to the startex.

2MOM

– Crunchy Frogs x 10 (missed you t-cell)

One ten-second good morning to close things out!

COT/BOM

MOLESKINE:
It was truly an honor to lead this workout. I had no idea what the heck I was getting into 10 years ago, but I’m glad I didn’t let that stop me. Really grateful for the all the men that have stepped up to lead along the way. Whether it’s been as a workout Q, an AOQ, or a position at the regional level, you are making me and countless others better for it. I don’t take that for granted. Nor should you.

Can’t wait to see what the next decade holds!

Also, a special thanks to all of you who brought coffee, baked goods, and other refreshments for extended coffeeteria. What a great way to end!

BULLHORN:
Prayers for job changes, job searches, ailments, and recoveries.

FNGs: None
COUNT: 17
CONDITIONS: Nice

WARMUP: Gave a 5 min warning to stretch, cause we had a lot to cover

THE THANG:
5 rounds of Questions with running and burpees in between

Round 1 – F3 and 413 Values
Round 2 – Bible
Round 3 – Financial Literacy
Round 4 – Workplace
Round 5 – Requirements to graduate

Team Concrete was victorious.

On our way back to the Startex we stopped at the stop sign. I gave bluemule a 7 second head start and the rest of the PAX had to catch him or do burpees.

A couple of men caught him and gave up right at the end and didn’t finish strong. bluemule gave a rousing speech about not quitting when you see the finish line.

I always make a point to tell the 413 men at this point that I love them and am proud of them. Then implore them to keep working hard cause the next phase is the hardest.

Always honored to lead here.

This is a big week for the 4:13 men. Final run on tuesday, final workout on Thursday and Signing day on Friday.

Mark your calendars now and make it a point to come encourage these men this week. They will be fielding job offers and can always use a sounding board to make the best decision.

SYITG, Chunks
