Amphitheater Antics:
Dips, Derks & Burps: Ascending Rep #s as we ascended the 7 levels of the amphitheater from the bottom with 3 Dips (Copenhagens), 3 Derkins and 3 Burpees. 3:3:3, 6:6:6, 9:9:9 etc. until the top with 21:21:21. We took a breather with some plank progression and hip dips before the finale. Shout out to Rice for not letting me take any of his Burpees.
After the Ascension, we lunge-walked the top border of the amphitheater, bear-crawled down the landscaping border wall, and then crawl-beared up the stairs on the Death-Star side of the amphitheater.
Mosey to the Death-Star and up the stairs to 6th floor via the hotbox (aka Stairwell) for some...

NMM/BullHorn:
Encouraged the PAX in the gift of Today. Let's live today in light of the fact that it may be our last. As Iron Sharpens Iron, so one brother sharpens another. Glad to see many new faces since I last attended a Franklin AO and see how y'all continue to EH and GiveitAway. Everyone put in great effort and were gracious to let me lead. Excited to Converge this Saturday back here at BattleGround where my F3 journey began 2.5 years ago when I was named by TopSpin and encouraged while in the 6 by BartMan. So cool that I am still friends with you guys and even after launching a new region 1.5 years ago in Nolensville, still feel your effects regionally and can jump right back in on the MC with BB and Tortoise. See you HIM Saturday!
Post-Party:Tortoise hosted a 12 Clerkin PP.
Stand Strong,
