The Thang:

Mosey / Indian Run to Huger Park with a few stops along the way for Squats.

Once there, pull-ups were the theme with a few other exercises peppered in for flavor.

  • Underhand Pull-ups
  • Step-ups
  • Overhand wide stance Pull-ups
  • Swing Merkins
  • Close Fist Pull-ups
  • WWI Sit-Ups

Mosey / Indian Run home with a few stops for PT

Jail break from the last stop back to the AO

Mary:  Flutter Kicks, Jane Fondas

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo: When you give thanks on Thursday, don’t give thanks to “nothing” or give thanks to something ambiguous. Thank your Heavenly Father who is the giver of all good gifts.

Moleskin: Fanny Pack and Smokey were both absent today. If YHC didn’t see them out and about on occasion, I’d e inclined to believe the live at the AO. They are stalwart. They are always there. For both of them to be absent on a given day is a sign of the apocalypse.

COP:

SSH: 20 – IC

TTT: 17 -IC

Don Quixote: 4 – IC

LBAC: 10 Forward – IC, 10 Backward – IC

T Claps: 10 – IC

Every month the men of Seismic gather to run the Hero, the AO’s monthly endurance test, in honor of a hero to one of the PAX. This month, we choose to honor one of our own, Hospice (Skip Williams). Skip is what F3 is all about. Always encouraging others. Always has a positive attitude. When he was diagnosed with a heart issue he was told it was difficult to diagnose, because he was in such good shape. He was told most people with his condition could not walk up a flight of stairs without running out of breath. Skip was still coming to boot camps. 

The Hero Workout:

  – 20 Curls for my wife

  – 20 Overhead Presses

  – 20 Tricep Dips

  – 20 Step-Ups

  – .30 Mile Run

AMRAP

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions:  54 degrees

FNGs:  None

COP:   SSH, TTT, LBAC, Don Quiote, Terrible Ts

The Thang:

Split into five groups of four men and rotate stations.

Station 1: Tire Jumps, LBCs, Decline Merkins

Duck Walk to next station

Station 2: Tire Flips (Two Pax flip the tire down the course and back while the other two PAX hold Al Gore. Flap Jack.

Military Crawl to next station

Station 3: 30 Flutter Kicks, 15 Burpees, 10 Seal Push-Ups

Indian Crawl to next station

Station 4: 30 Squats with the Block, 20 Curls for the Girls, 10 Block Sit-Ups

Station 5:  Run until time to switch

Mary:  Jane Fonda x 20 IC

Devo:  Habbakuk 3:17-19. YHC provided an high level overview and the theme of the book of Habakkuk, and encouraged the PAX to trust that even in the darkest of times, God is sovereign and is working out His plan. We may not see it for what it is, but we trust Him with patience, and rejoice in the process.

Moleskin:  It had been a long time since YHC was at a BC with our good friend Floppy. When his HC’d, it was clear some degree of creativity was in order as Floppy is historically one of our most creative Qs. This is not YHC’s strong suit, but the PAX seemed pleased with the work put in today. The tires of Seismic have been a frequently used tool over the last two weeks and they were instrumental again today. Peg is a beast on tire flips.

Conditions: High 70, clear, HUMID

Humidity: Satan’s thick fart

Warm-Up: Step out of car

The Thang: Modified Alston loops (big and small)

Moleskin: YHC used to run North Maple on Sunday mornings before Nexton Parkway was fully build. I’ll be darned if people aren’t using that road at 0500 on a Monday. Safety is no accident. It was nice to have a big group for my first time back Qing at Tremor in about 3 months. I don’t remember it being that humid last time. Great job putting in some work men. Bellator for the double down (BEAST).

Mission:  F3’s mission is to plant small workout groups that are free of charge to all men.   We improve fitness and leadership in the community through regular scheduled workout groups where participants rotate leadership.

Conditions: ~67 degrees at time of step off, it was glorious!

The Thang: 10 PAX showed up, got miles and drank coffee. Triathlon training is in full swing!

Moleskin: Nice turnout with 3 riding (1 with a brick) and 7 others solely running. Welcome back to Myrtle and thanks for reminding me why I missed you – I now know you will not be there tomorrow 🙂 Gypsy did not show up but he did find his wallet! The stank from the garbage truck that left tracks from the Carolina Ale House dumpster was right where we finished up. Let’s just say it was absolutely brutal to finish your run and smell that.

Also, do not let DT fool you. He said he was going to run around a 10 minute mile and the fool didn’t even come close to that. He knocked out 4 miles with YHC at an overall pace of 8:53. Well done sir!

Conditions: Today might very well be the last cool morning. It was glorious and 48 degrees at step off!

The Thang: President’s Circle and finish off with Alston Loop for 5 miles.

Joe brought his dog, F3 name Volcano, who ran 4 miles at a very high speed!

Welcome Barbie from Knoxville, in town for work, to Tremor. He also pulled a double down at Faultline!

Great turnout hitting double digits today -might be a Tremor PAX record?!

Prayers for Floppy with his upcoming surgery!

  • Stalker is STILL 49
  • Mud Run is coming up!

Snot Rockets and Shockers

Mission:  F3’s mission is to plant small workout groups that are free of charge to all men.   We improve fitness and leadership in the community through regular scheduled workout groups where participants rotate leadership.

Conditions: 36 degrees, didn’t mother nature hear that winter is over?!?!

The Thang: Run around different areas of town, with two stops at the concrete beast (up the stairs at the main entrance and down the stairs on the other side) to interrupt the men who were shocking other men.

Moleskin: There was plenty of talk this am about snot rockets, brought on by our very own Stalker. Milton, who seems to have a lot of experience and wisdom with this topic, added some great insight into how to get rich off of snot rockets. “You can post a Craigslist ad looking for men to snot rocket on. Only problem is, it’s a seasonal job.”

I always pee before it Burns

YHC absolutely will not run before I pee. Big fan of the pre step-off pee pee. That has nothing to do with today’s Tremor run, except for the fact that I did once again water the shrubs at the senior center before we started.

Today at Tremor we adapted The Burninator, the monthly challenge run devised by one Jim “Snowden” Kernodle (moment of silence, please) for The Creek. In his own words, the Burninator is “A progression run that challenges all hard hitting studs to hold on till they can’t stand it no more!”

More specifically, you begin with a 1-mile run at sub-11 pace. We used a .95-mile run to adapt to the confines of the Tremor AO. For the second mile, speed up to sub-10 pace. Third mile, sub-9 pace. Fourth mile, sub-8 pace, and fifth mile, sub-7 pace. Once you’re tapped out on keeping pace, just run at the pace that works for you until it’s time to stop.

This is Trogdor the Burninator. But you already knew that.

Conditions: Clear, mid 40s.
