After a fantastic Ruck-A-Thon the Pax needed a simple ruck to flush out their legs and recover from logging over 250 combined miles!

Rucked from AO parking lot to front parking lot and did a little PT with the rucks. 20 Merkins, 20 Curls, 20 Overhead Presses, and 20 Rows. Then rucked back to the AO parking lot and did 15 squats to finish out the time.

Great turn out for a post Ruck-A-Thon ruck! Great work!

After a controversial Pilates and Barre Q yesterday, the Q opted for an old school ruck with PT workout.

We rucked for a while and then did 20 squats, 20 Merkins, 20 curls, 20 overhead presses, and 20 rows. Then rucked for a while and repeated. Rucked the rest of the time.

It was nice to have some RESPECT at The Paddock! Hope to see you all again!

We moseyed over to the shed to pick up coupons and carried them to the parking lot where we went to “school”. The Q is a teacher and knows the power of education to shape lives. One of the most highly respected sources of educational strategies is the movie Bill Madison. The Q saw the potential in the Pax and knew if they put in the work, they could graduate like young Billy did!

Graduation requirements were passing kindergarten through 12th grade in one hour. To pass each grade the Pax had to complete a set of exercises and carry their coupons with them to each grade level.
K- 5 man makers
1- 10 ARods
2- 15 overhead presses with coupon
3-20 merkins
4-25 curls with coupon
5-30 lunges
6-35 LBCs
7-40 air squats
8-45 rows
9-50 step ups on coupon
10-55. Side straddle hops
11-60 Mountain climbers
12-65 Overhead claps

After completing the course work, the Q did a learning check to make sure the Pax had mastered the material. Sushi was asked what exercise we completed in 5th grade and answered incorrectly. As a result the Pax had to repeat K-12 again.

We carried our coupons back to kindergarten and repeated each grade again.

After completing each grade a second time, Sushi was asked the same question as before and this time he was correct.

The Pax celebrated graduation by doing our namesake Foxholes (WWI with a merkin) and a few rounds of Pax choice Mary.
-flutter kicks (1 minute)
-ARods (13 for BooBoo)
-planks (1 minute)
-tai chi (1 minute)

Incognito and Animal Style were named co-valedictorians which doesn’t matter at all, but their parents are very proud of them!

During the COT it was observed that there were no Pax that had celebrated their 50th birthday. The Pax of the Foxhole want to extend a welcome to our RESPECTED brothers and hope to see some of you next weekend!

Congratulations to Lansbury for not pooping himself during the beat down!

Fellowship and looking out for your brothers are a core part of F3. A recent missing poster was sent through Slack to help locate our missing brother Duggar. Since traditional methods have not worked, the Q, inspired by the Halloween season and the movie Beetlejuice, tried a supernatural approach. In the movie saying Beetlejuice out loud 3 times would cause Beetlejuice to appear. Instead of saying Beetlejuice, the Pax decided to say Duggar 3 times to see if he would appear.

Pax took their Rucks to the pavilion and did 6 exercises where the first letter of the exercise started with a letter of Duggar’s name.
D- Dips (10 reps)
U- Upward rows with ruck (10 reps)
G- Groiners (10 reps)
G- Glute Bridges (10 reps)
A- ARods (10 reps)
R- Reverse Lunges (10 reps each leg)

After spelling DUGGAR the Pax said his name and ran around the parking lot.

This was repeated 3 times.

Pax then rucked for the remaining time and looked for Duggar around the AO.

Despite the Pax’s best effort, Duggar did not appear. The Q has not given up hope as Duggar is not a very fast runner and may still be on the way to the AO.

Moseyed over to the coupons and each Pax picked up their own coupon. We then carried the coupon back to the other side of the AO and did 9 stations. The stations were Man Makers, Curls, Lung Twists, Coupon Squats, Coupon Rows, Coupon Shoulder Press, Big Boy Sit-ups, and Mountain Climbers. Each station was AMRAP for 2 minutes with a 45 recovery and move to next station. We then carried coupons back to storage area, jogged back to the station areas and completed Mary (American Hammers, Six Inches, Plank Shoulder Taps, and LBCs.

Thanks to Lansbury for the coffee and donuts! They were worth the wait! Great to see Brutus!
