Preamble:
YHC started the chatter on slack about some sort of EPIC beatdown that would be coming on Tuesday AM. No real plan was in his head and only threw out the word b/c it was the first one that came to mind.
Plans were always to leave the Academy and visit our Rubiconian brothers to pay homage to The Academy’s founder Devito and his 8 year anniversary.
Congrats and you’re welcome!!
😉
Warm-O-Rama:
After the F3 Mission was recited and the men all hit on the 5 core principles of F3 one by one, we started moseying to downtown Alpharetta. Never any real warm-ups at Academy but we did do a series of the following at multiple corners during our travels.
- 5 Squats/10 Merkins
- 5 Squats/10 Merkins/5 Burpees
- 5 Squats/10 Merkins/5 Burpees/10 Lunges (single)
The Thang:
Now at the triple decker stairs at Jekyll Brewing:
- Each man would run to the top individually while all others did Burpees till their turn. Unless you wanna boycott and Plank/Al Gore instead.
Mosey now towards the Rube.
- Stopped at Pure to Plank for the six for a couple minutes.
- 5 Burpees at corner of Roswell St./Old Milton.
Mosey through the backside of Wills until we made a b-line to the FOD where we found the pax of Rubicon performing a Dora so hopped right in.
- YHC would tell you exactly what we did but just looked for Devito’s BB and nowhere to be found (calling on the BBReminder!!). It was something like
- 100 Merkins
- 200 Lunges
- 300 American Hammers
- Bear Crawl for the movement.
At about 5:55 time for Academy men to assemble and bolt back to their rightful home. Stopped at the non existent speed bumps on Wills road to do 5 burpees at each. Once the men made it back at the Academy track is where things would really come into focus and this BB would become truly EPIC!!!
- YHC instructed the men to stay close to one another and follow the leader. The pax proceeded to start to spell some sort of word maybe….or maybe draw out a character….or maybe just do a weird type of Duck Walk/Hokie Pokie-Burpee thingy.
Once that craziness was done, on to the stadium.
- Trips up/down with 5 Burpees at the bottom.
Time was up and back to the flag.

- Prayers for Sweeper’s cousin Sarah as they continue to battle.
