F3 Greenwood

Wheels up 6am. YHC calls Disclaimer. At 6:01 , Uncle Jesse appears. Another Disclaimer. Inform PAX to mosey to field to grab a coupon and circle around the flag. Judge Harry moseys up , so another disclaimer. By now, all Pax know that Pusher is not a professional. YHC welcomes FNG and invites him to follow along in journey.

Warm-o-rama (to the tune of Early in the Morning-Gap Band) 30 SSH, 30 Little arm circles, 30 Imperial walkers all to cadence. The song has a perfect 4 count beat for cadences if anyone ever wants to use.

The THANG:
Song 2 (Jenny-867-5309-Tommy Tutone) 85 LBCs, 76 Bench presses, 30 Whirly boys, 9 burpies. Amazingly, no one asked me when the song started what the reps were. Great memories by PAX. Go figure.
Song 3 (Rainbow in the Dark-Dio) 30 merkins, 30 flutterkicks rinse and repeat until song over. YHC got 3 full rounds in.
Song 4 (In the Dark-Billy Squire) 30 tricep dips with coupons, 30 monkey humpers rinse and repeat until song over.
Song 5 (Electric eye-Judas Priest) 30 air squats, 30 overhead presses with coupon rinse and repeat til song done.
Song 6 (Kick start my Heart-Motley Crue) 30 Kettle bell swings, 30 Curls. This was the hardest amrap to rinse and repeat , but everyone agreed this song Kicked some serious A…-it’s in the song!
Song 7 (Beautiful Girls-Van Halen) 30 reverse crunches, 30 merkins rinse and repeat.

YHC called recover. Had everyone mosey to put up coupons. Then we headed to other side of field for some…old fashioned elementary school kickball, with an F3 twist! Team 1 in field- Pusher, Tickle, Round up , Judge Hairy, Band-aid, Baby Blue, Thumper Vs. Team 2-Mr. Bean, FNG-Time-out, Uncle Jesse, Judge Judy, Blueprint, Polly, and Smokey. The concept was simple. We only had a first and second base. Both teams would go thru line up and kick and then swap fields. Each kicker kicked. If he kicked it foul, his team had 5 burpies. If he got out before he got to first, 10 burpies for kicking team. If he got single , but didn’t make it to second, 5 burpies for kicking team and 5 burpies for fielding team. If he got double, fielding team got all 10 burpies. Guys loved it and we had a blast, but too many funny things happened to put here, so will put in Naked Moleskin at end. Regardless, Team 1 destroyed team 2 after a close start.

Paused to reflect on the average of 22 veterans who commit suicide daily due to not adjusting to society when they re-enter, or the nightmares of the horrors they endured, and did 22 merkins to ensure they would not be forgotten.

Gather around flag for count-o-rama,name-o-rama, FNG welcome.
Announcements–Whetstone, Relay for life, Sleep-over(I ain’t staying , so I called it that, HA!)
Prayer requests-Polly’s and Pusher’s sons for good decisions, Baby Blue daughter, Spud,and others.
Devotion-Psalm 119-18-21. God is consistent , so even when things look naturally like they are bad, dont forget God is in control spiritually.
Most of group then went to coffeteria at Howards.

Naked Moleskin:
too many, but here is few:
-was cordial game……until the first batter!!! Mr. Bean tries a bunt of all things, Pusher easily throws him out at second, until Mr. Bean decides to come in, spikes up, and takes out Baby Blue( where is the respect!)
-Mr. Bean’s and YHC competitive nature were seen clearly as we argued first 4 batters until all rules clear. MY Q!
-After team 2 batted , the score was 23 burpies for them to 17 for team 1. This stayed relatively close, until YHC came to bat! YHC promtly blasted a bomb, igniting team 2 as baby blue, bandaid, and tickle followed suit. At the mercy of team 2, had to switch from burpies to merkins so they could survive!
-Round-up tried to get cute and hit one at his injured brother-in-law, but Blueprint limped in and made a catch that bounced off himself 5 times. ESPN worthy.
-Round -up made up for it with a true ESPN diving catch . Went all out and banged head on ground, but held on. Of course, Mr. Bean and Uncle Jesse argued ball had hit ground, but it was awesome play!
-When Polly cleared a double at his second bat, he flew home saying “Batman Returns!”
-Smokey told team 1 to watch out because he had pitched in Junior High and High school. Round up said he wasnt aware of the kickball team he pitched on. Round-up then started cat-calling for a pitching change after the barrage of doubles kicked off Smokey. To which Smokey replied he was just warming up. He did, in fact, stop the onslaught after that .
A good time was had by all!
