Mosey… we find a cool dock under the wharf … we start some squats… then the Wharf Monster start to howl… loudly… scarily… and it get’s louder and louder… seriously… it was scary… the Wharf Monster did NOT want us there. One of the PAX said it’s Wharf Monster mating season too… seriously… Get the heck out of here FAST!!!!

Mosey… leg ups on wall

Mosey… up some stairs, around the other wharf… PAX choice Aussie Merkins or regular Merkins… and then repeat

Mosey…. more leg ups

Mosey to AO start… we come across Stone Cold.

Gas pumps and 6 inches to round it out.

We did a few more Merkins and things along the way but since YHC did not have this one scripted out the memory has faded.

C’arrrrrr week

Leave a comment

A love hate relationship with locals for Car week on the peninsula. We were lucky in that Worthington out of Seattle was DR for the show and posted with us. Said he’d been coming to the show for years. F3 Monterey has been around for years, too. Just sayin’….

6 strong 💪 today. Humidity still a little high for us norther Californians not used to it.

The Super 21 Cycle.  1 Merkin to 1 Big Boy Sit up.  2 Merkins to 2 Big Boy Situps.  3 Merkins to 3 Big Boy Situps, etc., etc., etc.  But wait there is a twist….after each completed set of #1 though #5 PAX will complete 21 Imperial Walkers.  Bear Crawl to 1st base.  After each completed set of #6 through #10 PAX will complete 21 Mountain Climbers.  Bear Crawl to 2nd base.  After each completed set of # 11 through #15, PAX will complete 21 Monkey Humpers.  Bear crawl to 3rd base.  After each completed set of #16 through #20 PAX will complete 21 Prisoner Squats.  Bear Crawl to Homeplate and PAX will complete the final set of #21 Merkins to #21 Big Boys then finish strong with 21 Burpees.

Honestly we didn’t do the last 16-20. We did a count down from 5 to 1. But we still did the 21 burpees.

Mosey to wharf for a little sight seeing for our visiting friend.

4 strong 💪 this morning. YHC arrived at the AO early but stayed in his car because of the cold. Then when YHC got out of the car it was actually warmer outside of the car than inside. That’s taking microclimates to the extreme.

Imperial Walkers
Hill Billies
Heel raises

The Thang
Bear Crawl to the water
Mosey to sea wall
Line drawn in the sand… Lung to line, 10 burpees, mosey back… repeat less 1. First person calls it.

Jenny from the block

Leave a comment

4 strong 💪 today for a glorious beatdown led by YHC. We all pondered why Jenny is back with Ben… actually, no, that’s not true. That didn’t even cross anyone’s mind this morning.

Cherry Pickers
Heel Raises

Crawl Bear to the bay over the sand
10 BBS
10 Merkins

Mosey… SSHs as we wait out DPRs calf cramp

Squats & Al Gores 10,9,8….10

Mosey to sea wall (shuffle really after those squats…)

10 strong 💪 this morning at Carmel High. Weather was fantastic. A cool 55 degrees and foggy. Basically like every summer morning here in Carmel.

It was great to see Natty downrange from F3 Knoxville join us and come to coffeteria, too. Also great to see Bru Ha Ha (MIA since July 2020), whom YHC mistook for his younger brother Jagger. Sorry Bru Ha Ha!

Disclaimer given

Warm Up:
10 Michael Phelps
50 SSH
100 Grady Corn (yes! we made it to 100! Only a few moans from the pax. The batwing king loved the grady corns.)
20 Cherry Pickers
10 heel raises

The Thang:
On Track…
For 2 laps:
2 merkins, Run ¼ track, 4 merkins, run ¼ track, 6 merkins, run ¼ track 8 merkins for 4 laps. If first at ¼ mark do 2x exercise, if you are 2nd, do 1.5x exercise. If last, skip exercise and keep running. Sorry for the complex math!

Repeat: Burpees, Absolution, Situps

Great to watch Beach and Natty duke it out on the last 1/4 mile run. Natty took it.

Line up on goal line. Crawl bear 50, run back, crawl bear 25, run back. YHC thought that would take longer than it did so lets Crawl Bear to the 100 and run back.

Still time…

Freddy Mercury’s, Rosalitas, 6 inches….

Announcements:
* Contact Beach SOON! about F3 Shirt order… 10% discount and free shipping
* Contact Sharkbait about F3 Monterey custom shirt order
* RSVP to YHC if you are coming to Dinner at YHC house. Pizza, etc. Priorities will be in town and joining us.
