Mosey to Cack a lacka Choo Choo tracks near fire station
Do a Merkin every time someone jumps over you
Lunge walk to sign posts

– Lots of Planking and Merkins today hope you felt the pump
– A lot of fresh faces today, 3 Pax I had never seen before. Welcome!
– @Derby I guess the only good day for a weight vest is leg day. But I respect that. If you want a ruck let me know I will bring it. Just don’t open it. Leave the weight a mystery.
– It is always a pleasure and I mean that. If you have been around for awhile and haven’t Q’d do it. It will make an impact on you.
– Please remember @Colonel Mustard and @Tomlin (Highlands pax in Dallas) both are going through some things.
Great workout @winnebego!
@derby – sorry for harassing while we did the guard rail plank walk!
I think I missed a few PAX. We had some early outs which threw my count off. If I missed you please sound off and accept my apologies.
@Bago Circle merk with 27 is tough. Doing it 7 times (is that really all we did??) feels like an eternity. Had some burning in the shoulders from that. For the record, the downrange group were doing as instructed – to plank walk down the guard rail. It was just…you know….kind of hard…and…the segment of rail between us was like 2 miles long…. Also, hated the repeato on the cack-a-lack-a chu-chu. That was a lot of jumping….and merkins….
For the record, the spirit rock out back of HCES is NOT good for Peoples Chair as @Alcatraz and I discovered – he made the point of that slick painted surface not providing any “surface tension.” However it rocks (see what I did there) for balls to the wall since you can hang your feet over the top and hold up a bunch of your weight…not that I did that….
For our next Iron Cross competition we need some form guidelines. We had extreme variation around the pax.
Agreed acceptable form must be outlined. I will let @Charmin lay the ground rules
@Winnebago – there is something to be said for being all in and creating a visual representation of your F3 name, but(t)… #WrongSideOfCOT #TryingToForget #GladGrinderHasNoVisual

The 2nd choo choo was definitely painful. Like @TheNanny, my feet also found a little ledge for BTTW- made me feel like a really tired, sweaty bat.
@Alcatraz, just for the record, I grind metal, not people… #NotThatKindOfMensGroup
