    Backblast for 2nd running of "The Standard" on 6/16/25

    Interval between runnings was longer than intended, but we were back today for another iteration of the standard.
    62 degrees, still and clear as we kicked things off. one FNG today so:
    Intro–the mission and core principles of F3.
    Warm-o-rama: 20 SSH IC, and 10 Windmill IC.

    The THANG:
    800m run
    10 burpees, 50 curls
    400m run
    15 absolutions, 50 overhead presses
    400m run
    20 burpees, 50 goblet squats
    400m run

    800m run.
    for time.

    bonus round if finished in time: 10 burpees and 50 block presses. Pick up the 6.
    Terrific push this morning from the returners (Meatloaf, Coconut) aided by the presence of some hot first-timers (Bourbon, Woodstock), and everybody got meaningfully after it. FNG even gave it a spirited go, and this is no cakewalk of a beatdown.

    Warm-up: SSH’s, Finkle Swings, Piano Keys, Eagle Wings

    The “Thang”:

    Partnered up and did 25 bro-kins which is doing a push-up then high fiving your partner.

    Next we had one partner do a farmer’s carry while the other did an AMRAP exercise. Whoever in the group dropped the coupon, they rotated. To get to the coupons, the PAX had to sprint. We did this for 10 minutes. Exercises were flutter kicks, bear squats, LBC’s.

    Last round we lined up. Did three rounds of an exercise. Once we were done with the rep, we sprinted to the cone and back. The first 3 back added 5 to their next round. Exercises were, curls, goblet squats and v-taps.

    We ended up with Green Sally Up, Green Sally Down with high plank/low plank.

    FNG’s: none

    Warm-up: SSH’s, Learning to Fly/Learning to Land, Willie Mayes Hayes. Piano Keys

    The “Thang”:

    Had 5 stations:

    1: Fathers and Men PROTECT. Warzone Carry: Partnered up and carried one PAX to the cone. Switched and the other PAX carried the other to the cone. Rotated each time. Continued until we got to the top of the hill.

    2: Fathers and Men PRODUCE! Hunter Gather: 2 teams on opposite ends with buckets. 100 balls in the middle. PAX ran to get the balls, dropped it in their bucket. When the middle ran out, balls were taken from the other team’s bucket.

    3: Fathers and Men PLAY! Water Balloon War. When hit, men dropped and performed 5 merkins. 2.0s performed 3 squats.

    4: Fathers and Men PERSIST! Top Gun Style: all circled up, in squat position during Danger Zone by Kenny Loggins. Every “Danger Zone” calls for a burpee.

    5: Fathers and Men COMPETE! I will set up a dunk tank with water at the end. The team that lost the golf ball challenge goes in the chair. Hit the target, PAX under the bucket gets wet. You miss, you bear crawl to the monument and mosey back
