Lucky Number 13 HIMs gave Mother Nature the middle finger and got after it at The Wall.

Warm-Up: Typical Stuff, while we reviewed F3's mission (to plant & serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male leadership in the community) and its five tenets:
-Free
-Open to all men
-Occurs outdoors, rain or shine
-Peer-led, with no formal training necessary
-Always ends with Circle of Trust

Main Event
1. Animal Movement / Yanni Merkin Thingamajigs. Three blocks arranged in a line about 25 yards from the start line. Pax line up. One man does forward animal movement to the blocks. Perform a Yanni Merkin (one hand on block and other hand on ground; do a merkin; switch hand positions and repeat) on first block. Plank walk to next block and do another Yanni Merkin. Plank walk to last block & do a Yanni Merkin. Then reverse animal movement back to start. Pax in line perform an exercise while awaiting his turn as well as after return to the line.

For the Beastly BLIMPS, we moved from the parking lot to the pavilion. And lo and behold, there was some Random Dude sitting at a picnic table looking at his phone. We did the whole BLIMPS circuit while he just sat there. Awkwardly weird. Weirdly awkward. Makes one fondly remember the homeless dude that finally got busted after living in the BC clubhouse for a week or two.
