We converged on 6/10 to with a special weinke designed by the PAX of F3 Nairobi (but “may” have been augmented by Poppins…)
Weinke
Warm up
Various, but highlight was 150 SSH in sets of 50. #CrowdPleaser
Groups of 5
Indian Run
5 burpees by the guys at the back
Dora on the football practice field
50 burpees - bear crawl
200 merkins - bear crawl
200 squats - lunge walk
300 4-count mountain climbers - frog leap a partner
Lots of bat flipping on the 4-count of the mountain climbers and the frog leaping
The guys in Kenya average a 5 mile transit to and from the AO, so a group of PAX dutifully pre-ran and post-ran 5 miles after the beatdown. YHC took a bit of flack, because it was me that spitballed that idea and then did not pre or post run. I did bring my 2.0 to the workout to try to cover the fact that I wouldn’t be running extra, but to no avail. Badlands 100% called me out.

The plan was to raise $$ to purchase a vehicle for transportation of Nairobi PAX to workouts, supporting efforts to assist in community and coordinating donations etc. The need is tremendous and our financial support is magnified in Kenya.
As of this backblast, we raised $2620. I have no idea when you’re reading this, but you could possibly still contribute and Poppins may still have T-Shirts in the back of his vehicle: <https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-our-kenyan-f3-brothers?member=26869695&sharetype=teams>
