On most large construction sites the Tower Crane is the focal point.  It’s a beast of a machine, and once it’s up and running, it almost never stops working.  At a cost of $35,000/month there can be little downtime.   Today 15 PAX headed  into the gloom to get a taste of how hard this piece of equipment works.   Based on the moans and groans I’d say most of the PAX have a new found respect.    

Warm up

ME – Erecting the Tower Crane, each round we add an exercise, aka an escalator.   

10 burpees and then a sprint around the field.

30 American hammers w rock,

40 Air squats,

Cosmo, rightfully so, calls out Q for having a baby rock,

30 rows

Q swaps rocks with Cosmo

30 tricep curls

Was a good reminder that we are here to push each other and hold each other accountable. YHC was thankful for the call out and knew Cosmo meant it to be a motivator.   It worked!

Mary – barely time left but we managed to get in a MC ring of fire.

COT

Thanked the big guy for allowing us to continue to strengthen our minds, bodies, and sprit through this great F3 community.

Our thoughts are with Boucher’s  friends dealing with cancer, Floyd’s Dad, Ron, who is thankfully on the road to recovery, and w Bellhop as he faces some big life changing decisions. It was a gloomy morning but relatively dry from above, be careful this afternoon as some nasty weather is rolling in with possible tornadoes.

We should also be mindful, safe and vigilant about Covid.  With light at the end of the tunnel it’s easy to become complacent.  Let’s all lead by example in our communities with best practices.
