Q: Priorities
Pax: Rhymes, Mud Duck, Sawdust, Priorities
YHC doesn’t know what is so romantic about mid May but from all the birthdays going on, that’s when people are getting bizzay! Â Croc’s birthday was 2 weeks ago, Priorities 2.0 had a birthday on Monday, M Croc is having a baby (quite possibly as I type this), M Rhymes is getting induced tonight and this morning F3 Monterey celebrated Sawdust’s 33rd birthday the best way we know how…
Warmup:
SSHs x33 IC
IWs x33 IC
Copperhead Merkins x33 IC
Paint the lines (only 1 court, gotta keep the legs fresh…)
The Thang:
The traditional F3 Monterey Birthday Run – (this is the second such event so it’s now a tradition…)
– 1 pax takes off with the jugs. Â All other pax do 3 burpees. Â When the jugs are caught, new pax takes over. Â When you are caught with the jugs, you do 3 burpees and chase down the jugs again. Â Repeato.
Mud Duck didn’t quite understand the point as when we all were coming back to pick him up, he turned around and got a head start back to the flags. Â Good thought but we still had places to go.
Next, the S.A.W.D.U.S.T. commenced at the wharf courtyard.
Scorpion Dry Docks – x16.5 each leg – OYO
American Hammers – x33 IC
Wheel of Merkins x33 – OYO (33 merkins, turning 90 degrees between each rep)
Derkins – had to be skipped on account of time and exhaustion
Up-downs – See Derkins
Sun Gods – x33 IC (16.5 fwd/16.5 back each sides/front/overhead) – Aye!!
Birthday run back to the flags
Thigh Masters x16.5 each leg IC
COT: Â Numbers/Names
Words of wisdom from last weeks F3 Round Table:
An old man going a lone highway,
Came, at the evening cold and gray,
To a chasm vast and deep and wide.
Through which was flowing a sullen tide
The old man crossed in the twilight dim,
The sullen stream had no fear for him;
But he turned when safe on the other side
And built a bridge to span the tide.
âOld man,â said a fellow pilgrim near,
âYou are wasting your strength with building here;
Your journey will end with the ending day,
You never again will pass this way;
Youâve crossed the chasm, deep and wide,
Why build this bridge at evening tide?â
The builder lifted his old gray head;
âGood friend, in the path I have come,â he said,
âThere followed after me to-day
A youth whose feet must pass this way.
This chasm that has been as naught to me
To that fair-haired youth may a pitfall be;
He, too, must cross in the twilight dim;
Good friend, I am building this bridge for him!â
YHC rambled on for a bit but said nothing better than the poem above. Â Prayers for those coming after us, especially Croc 2.0 and Rhymes 2.0 coming soon.

***UPDATE***
So I wrote this post yesterday but never published it. Â It was a crazy night. Â I was writing quite literally as Baby Hux (Croc 2.0) was being born. Â Mom and baby are doing great! Â Thanks for all the TAPS, especially to Sharkbait for praying with me at happy hour in the middle of a bar when we got word they were going in for a C Section. Â God is good!!
In other baby news, M Rhymes has been admitted to the hospital but no progress yet. Â Continue the TAPS for the next new addition to F3 Monterey!
