Lonely Hearts Club 180928 – The Band is breaking up!

Lonely Hearts Club 180928 – The Band is breaking up!

Date: September 28, 2018 – 5:30am

AO: Lonely Hearts Club (Epiphany Lutheran – Austin Campus)

Q: BoneDaddy

Pax: Gold Star

Warm-up

The Thang:

“THE LONGEST MILE”

4 Rounds for Time

10 Burpees

100 meter Run

10 Air Squats

100 meter Run

10 Push-Ups

100 meter Run

10 Sit-Ups

100 meter Run

The countdown started and the 1-mile race was off! Gold Star and BoneDaddy were neck and neck, with BoneDaddy occasionally taking the lead. This was how the race went for the first half. Then Gold Star started to warm up, took off his sweatshirt, and started his push. Little by little he began to overtake BoneDaddy, ultimately getting about one fully exercise ahead by the end.

Finishing Times

Gold Star 16:24

BoneDaddy 16:58

ANNOUNCEMENT: Due to the continued extremely low numbers and what appears to be lack of current interest in a Friday morning workout, at least at the current AO. Today will be the last show at the Lonely Hearts Club. With the onset of winter, we believe it is best to consolidate resources and ensure a healthier, stronger PAX emerges in the spring. We would like to thank Epiphany Lutheran for their hospitality and hope to be able to host a Reunion Tour in the not too distant future.

September 26, 2018 – Higgins: Special Edition

Wednesday, September 26th, Higgins Special Edition Backblast

Time: 7:00 p.m.

AO: Higgins

Q: Wilson

Pax: Sir Ulrich

The pre-dawn Gloom is regularly when the Pax of F3 gather for their free work out, but afternoon and evening gatherings are not unprecedented. Personal scheduling conflicts created the need for a schedule adjustment. Newly named Pax, Sir Ulrich, joined YHC at The Higgins (a.k.a., Cloud Park) for the inaugural evening session of F3 Dayton.

The Thang:

A combo of Mosey/Slowsey around the 1 mile perimeter of the soccer/baseball fields provided various opportunities for exercises:

  • Parallel Bar Dips
  • Pull Ups
  • Front Levers
  • Off-set Push Ups
  • Monkey Bars
  • Monkey Bars Pull Ups

If you need a little motivation for getting in shape, come join us. We currently have almost thirty active members ranging in age from 10 to 65 and in various levels of fitness. F3 is a peer-led, zero cost workout group with the mission to plant, serve and grow these groups in order to invigorate male community leadership.

YHC,

Wilson Tog

AO: Higgins

Q: Wilson

Truth be told, I did not want to move to the Dayton area. Other than grandkids, what does this area have to offer??

Turns out to be a lot. The five rivers area has sculpted some marvelous scenery. I live 12 minutes from a 30 foot waterfall. And the parks are great.

The Thang:

  • The Ruck: 1.5 miles with 20# pack.
  • High Bar Shoulder Rotations
  • Hanging Knees to Elbows

And if we had not moved here, I would not know the fine fellow Pax of F3. Where I thought we were going to move to, F3 does not exist.

I have learned that adventure is where you find it.

Scheduling note: I will not be at Cloud Park on Thursday, September 27, but feel free to come and solo ruck. But, who in their right mind would do that??

YHC,

Wilson

F3 Dayton Special Shout

If F3 had a 4th F, it would be family. Special shout out to all the PAX that treat their F3 brothers like family.

Evening backblast:

Q: Brody

PAX: a stranded Goldstar and his wife and two girls

Racing back to #dayton from an Sunday afternoon #ikea trip, the PAX tire slowly started losing air. Low and behold, Goldstar has to think quickly what to do. As he got down to as low as 9 PSI, he began to panic as he had 3 beautiful ladies in his vehicle to protect. Luckily, 1.5 miles up the highway there was a rest stop. Goldstar was able to make it to the rest stop, Jack the car up and remove the lug nuts, but the wheel was as stubborn as can be and not coming off. As several swift kicks didn’t help, quick, critical thinking had to come into action.

Goldstar then utilized the #f3dayton #slack page to enlist help from some PAX. Quick to the draw, Brody offered a helping hand being only an exit away from the rest stop. Brody was quick to the rescue with a large pickup truck full of the proper tools for this very type of predicament. As quick as Brody got there, he quickly finished with a few pounds of a hammer to the back of the wheel. With the assistance of Goldstar, they were able to get the spare donut on the vehicle and the day was officially saved.

Mega thanks out to one of the greatest leaders of F3 Dayton, Brody, who is gifted and goes above and beyond to serve all of our PAX. @f3nation_official

Q: Wilson

You may have noticed my FedEx hat from Tuesday. No, they are not a sponsor. I worked for FedEx when I posted to my first workout in Columbus back in January. In the COT following that first workout, the Pax were drilling me for personal info to come up with an appropriate F3 name for me. When I mentioned I worked for FedEx, Crossgrain piped up with “Wilson”, from the Tom Hanks movie “Castaway.”

Yes, I’ve been named after a volleyball.

I decided I didn’t want to do the normal stuff, so I began by rucking in the opposite direction. The pull up bar is exactly half a mile from the start/finish point.

  • Toes to the bar X 6
  • Chip ups X 6

Back to the flag. Rinse, repeat.

Total miles = 2 + 20lb. pack.

I have totally embraced the Wilson moniker. We both have the same hair style. And I hear about as well as he does….
