Boot camp style workout. At Woodland Park. Two large Playgrounds, Frisbee Golf Course, 1 Mile Dirt Track, HUGE Field. Plenty of space here to craft a diabolical smokefest for even the strongest PAX.
Park at Grace Church off of East Boundary Drive.
SATURDAYS always followed up with 2nd F (fellowship) at Lamplight Cafe and Bakery located at 121 W. Indiana ave. Great opportunity to get to know members of F3 Black Swamp and refuel from the workout.
Balls and Pirates Booty – Ruck Addition – Another Huffy Production
PAX (15) : Spaulding, Bourbon, Nemo, Woodstock, Mercy, Casper, Lonzo, Landslide, Jennay, Coconut, Squirt (fng), Stark, Geppetto, Peach, Huffy (Q).
Mission Statement, Core Principles, and The Disclaimer.
Warmed up with Side Straddle Hops, and Windmills then got to work.
We split up un 3 teams and drew the Balls. How it worked: Draw a ball with a number (Station Number) and a letter (Designated an activity at that station), place the ball into your teams bucket and do the work. All activities include the use of your ruck sack or equivalent coupon. See Below.
Station #1
A Stack the Shelf 30 Reps
B Thrusters 30 Reps
C Imperial Walk Press (1 is 1) 30 Reps
Station #2
A Big Boy Situps with Ruck 25 Reps
B Bicycles with Overhead Ruck Press(2 is 1) 25 Reps
C Kettle Ruck Swings 25 Reps
Station #3
A Curls 25 Reps
B Bent Rows 25 Reps
C Overhead Press 25 Reps
At the mid point we switched to Pirates Booty. How it Works: Teams are separated out evenly around the treasure. We first grabbed the treasure from the center then we started to steal the treasure from each other. We are not allowed to physically impede the teams while stealing the booty. The 1st round caused some new rules to be made. 10 the treasure has to be close to your teams cone and 2) you have to travel through the center section while stealing the booty, and 30 you can’t hide your cone to hide the treasure. The best quote is “In F3 we treat each other with so much respect, but that goes out the window when we compete. ” Treasure value is listed below.

PEEP SHOW POST RUCK
4 PAX did the entire peep show. 2 PAX joined for the post ruck
PAX: Bourbon, Mercy (Q), Lonzo, Casper, Flo, Gepetto
We took weight with us – 3 coupons – a 40, 60, and 80 and rucked out and back. We walked in middle of street, which was probably unwise. We were advised this was unwise by a friendly pburg resident who was having a rough morning. He didn’t get to start his day with a Peep Show and F3.
The coupons sucked. But the coupons on the ruck are a must. Similar to getting better at pullups, the best way to get used to coupons is to carry them.
The coupons slowed us down, but we still put in 2.5~ miles.
COT and Coffee – thank you Patriot for bringing!
