1 Hour – end.

Shared some of my back story (little bit at a time and a little more per Q) and talked about the importance of the legacy we leave behind; for our sons, daughters, families, friends and communities. We’re not our past. Our past doesn’t make us who we are. We decide who we are now and how we impact the world around us every day. Had the absolute pleasure of leading 20 men aged 65 to 11 through the gloom into, hopefully, positive exhaustion.

Since joining F3 I wake up every morning and say to myself: “Don’t excuse yourself from life today” (Bonus points for naming the band and song). I challenge you to do that in one form or another. Ask yourself, “How am I going to positively impact the world around me?”

End COT/ Admin/ PR stuff

June 18, 2018 – Higgins

Q: Wilson

PAX: Goldstar, Tails

My expectations were pretty low this morning. We had recently started asking who was planning on attending the next morning workout. Alas, no one committed to coming Monday. I’m probably going to fly solo.

But, wait! What’s this? Another vehicle in the parking lot as I’m pulling in? It’s Gold Star, fresh from vacation. As we were catching up, with but two minutes to spare, another set of headlight turn into the park. Who else, but the ever present Tails (who missed the last two workouts, so almost ‘ever’ present).

Gold Star had not been with us my last Q on Saturday a week ago, so I thought it was a good opportunity to introduce him to Murph. Cloud Park (a.k.a., Higgins) in Huber Height has a pull up bar on the far end of the park which is about a third of a mile away. We moseyed about half way and made a brief warm-up of an even dozen SSH in cadence. Moseyed to the bar for the Thang: Murph, Interrupted.

A true Murph, named after Navy Seal Michael Murphy, is a one mile run, followed by 100 pull ups, 200 pushups, 300 squats, and finishing with another one mile run. We aren’t Navy Seals, so we counted the run to the bar as the first run. The exercises are then broken in to 10 sets of 10 pull ups, 20 push ups, and 30 squats, with modifications as needed (and I needed modifications). But we were on a tight schedule. Nobody goes to work without a shower and a shave (except Gold Star, I mean the shaving part. I’m sure he showers occasionally).

We did not make it through all ten sets, but Gold Star got the Gold Star having completed nine sets.

The workout is intense. So we sloy-sed back to the parking lot, concluding with our name-o-rama, Ball of Man (it’s a small ball with only three guy), and COT (Circle of Trust).

Expectations exceeded. Great start to the week.

Bonus Workout: West Carrollton Football 1st Annual Pirate Games

Stamp and BoneDaddy had scheduled themselves a good ol’ fashioned weight lifting throwdown to take place after this mornings F3 workout. (Probably wasn’t the wisest idea but #CSAUP ideas are the best ideas 😉 )

The Thang:

FOR TIME:

20 push ups
run 20 yards
20 thrusters @ 65#
run 20 yards
20 squat cleans @ 95#
run 20 yards
20 back squats @ 95#
run 20 yards
20 deadlifts @ 135#
run 20 yards
20 Burpees
(don’t die, don’t splash merlot)

Stamp being the beast that he is posted a blazing fast time of 9:35.6 and took 1st in the division. 🏆🏅
BoneDaddy posted a respectable time of 13:12.9 and placed 4th in the division

Join us next year at the West Carrollton Football Pirate Games!
