Bootcamp style workout that typically takes advantage of the big green field north of the church. Park in the north lot. “Takes advantage”
Today marked the first day at this new AO for F3 Toledo! What a turnout! We had 15 HIM get out of the fartsack to get better.
PAX: Patch, Johnny, Beaker, Ticket, Bob Vance, Scrooge, Cousteau, Dauber, Rubble, Romano, Tidwell, Jimmy Dean, Tupac, Danica, and Mailman.
QIC: Mailman
The Thang: With Caddyshack in our wake, we began with an introduction to “The Big Green.” Mailman explained that it is the opposite of Little Flower and it also has the large green field to the north of the facility. This name is also based off of the 1995 Disney classic by the same name, click here –> https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112499/
We moseyed around the building to see all that the new AO has to offer. Through wet grass and puddles, we made it to field. The grass was wet from the night before but had to utilize the big green field for the first morning. Mailman had 5 flags set out equal distances from goal post to goal post running north and south. Flag 1 (North) had 10 Burpees, Flag 2 had 20 Jump Squats, Flag 3 had 30 Hand Release Merkins, Flag 4 had 20 Big Boys, and Flag 4 had 10 Inchworms.
The progression was to run from the southern goal post to the northern goal post then go to Flag 1. Once completed, PAX would run back to the southern goal post. From there, they would run north to the northern goal post then go to Flag 2. Once completed, they would run back to the southern goal post and continue on with Flags 3, 4, and 5.
We got through a few rounds of this and then Mailman had everyone count off by 2s for even teams. Each team Al Gore’d along the wooden piles to the north near the dumpster. Each team was to Al Gore while one team member zig zagged through to the other side. Once everyone was finished we did the same thing but with planks and bear crawls.
Finally, we lined up on the northern wall of the building in one single line and wall sat. During the wall sit, one by one, each PAX would bear crawl to the other side of the line.
COT: COR, NOR, 6 (Scrooge), Announcements for Froglympics and RIP Caddyshack. Prayers for Bob Vance’s family member.
All in all The Big Green showed that it is a great AO! As always, it is an honor to Q, thanks!
