Also in attendance: Vegimite and FNG- Thomas (9 yrs old) now 2 Stroke
Rain was expected but luckily held off allowing FGF to take full reign of Outer Limits. We had Fidel and Stumpy in attendance adding to the energy of the morning, until FNG Thomas walked up. A couple of jaws dropped when a young man (new War Baby) with casted arm, rolled up at 5:28am, under his own will power ready to kill his 2nd post and earn his new F3 name. We missed Burrito Boy and want to pay a special head nod to Sparknut since it was likely through his efforts, muscle flexing and luring to get these young guys out to the AO (was probably more of his dedication, humility and ability to draw strengths out of other men/boys that brought out these one day, men).
So FGF was still thinking through his plan for the morning, the clock hit 5:30am and the call was made, we were off for a mosey around the green. On the way around the green I saw another silhouette coming from behind, it was Vegimite back in the saddle and back in town from MA. Now that we had lucky number 7 it was time to get things cooking, put another shrimp on the barbie.
Warama
Back to the the AO for SSH, IST, Hill billies, Merkins, Squats, Lunges, and Windmills
The Thang
Mosey down SW blvd and over to Silas place. Stop at the start of Silas for a little runners stretch and then sprint to the top of the hill and jog down to the bottom. This is where the half baked, magical brain child of FGF happended.
This was a time to honor the Q's of the OL that have impacted the men of the OL community and personally FGF. Q's were honored by selecting 2 of their favorite exercises, a repeato, followed by a sprint back up Silas (Fidel 😉 ). I do want to say that Thomas, in his BA style, dropped the shirt after the first sprint, and FGF, not wanting the FNG to be alone in his bare chested masculinity, parted ways with his F3 swag. 2 Stroke is wise beyond his years because this was smart in this decision. Back to the workout…
