Quote of the day: “I thought you promised no mosey or burpees?!” ~Grouper~
11 PAX posted (3 Chippendale style) on an extremely windy pre-hurricane beatdown. No mosey or burpees stated by YHC, but hey if we can’t tell a little white lie every once in awhile then are we really even living life to the fullest??? Burpees and Mosey it is then for a straight hour! The disclaimer was given and every PAX would be called upon multiple times to answer questions pertaining to F3…answer correctly keep moseying, incorrect and there would be a 5 burpee penalty for everyone…
WARMUP:
- Split into 2 lines…Endomorph (thicker dudes typically 200+lbs) and Ectomorph (thinner men)…performed incorrectly…BURPEES X5

THA THANG:
- Mosey (approx. 3 miles give or take with trivia along the way every couple hundred yards per rules stated above)
QUIZ QUESTIONS:

EXTRA CREDIT:
Upon completion of the mosey there were 4 cones set out for 4 corners. Burpees or AB exercises at each corner would depend on whether or not some of our experienced PAX could answer some extra credit questions correctly…
- Finish this common saying when you are part of a very hard beatdown…”If it were that easy…?” “Then everyone would be doing it!” – Answered incorrectly so more burpees it is…1 per cone for 3 minutes
- Anchorman was given a chance to redeem himself on an earlier incorrect and was asked again…What is the original date F3 began? – Answered incorrectly again BURPEES X10
Hooker decided he wanted to quiz the Q at this point with a minute or so left (not a good idea after the Q just read all 29 pages of the Lexicon the night before but go ahead)
- What is a Paul Blart? YHC correctly answered back with a rent a cop or security that runs a group off in the middle of a beatdown. But then YHC fired back asking what it is called when that situation occurs? – He answered incorrectly and we all performed BURPEES X5 AYG to finish out the day…
BEATDOWN COMPLETE
TOTAL DISTANCE: APPROX 3 MILES
TOTAL BURPEES: 120…ISH
MOLESKIN
Incredible to see this many PAX post on what many thought was going to be a miserable and rainy beatdown. The rain and lightning held off until we were finished. Tons of creative answers to the trivia questions made for alot of humorous mumble chatter, which is always good when you travel such a far distance. Thank you to all who posted especially Grouper, Hooker and DBA who did a “Double Down” (back to back beatdowns) and also a special shout out to Grouper and Tebow for joining me as “Chippendales”. I bet No-See-Um would have known some of these for sure…
