When: 03/23/2026
QIC: Ma Bell
PAX (8): Durty Nelly, Flambeaux, Flurry, Klinger, Ma Bell, Minnow, Snowman, Swiper
Preamble:
I don’t know why, but ever since I visited the new location for Grindstone and felt the plush trampoline-like field, I wanted to do an IronPax-inspired beatdown there. Today was my opportunity.
Warm-O-Rama:
After a warmup circumnavigation of the parking lot, we circled up forĀ
- Merkins
- SSH
- Hillbillies
- Mountain Man Poopers
…then gathered the coupons YHC asked the PAX to bring in the preblast and moseyed over to aforementioned plush field for the Thang
The Thang:
Pretty simple. With a playlist of 80s and 90s country bangers to keep us motivated, do the following until time is called:
- n x Thrusters
- n x Curls
- n x Upright Rows
- n x Coupon Merkins (each arm)
- n x American Hammers (Cumming count)
- n x 100 yard sprints
where n = (2, 4, 6, 8, 10…)
At the end, each PAX declared the number of 100 yard sprints they had completed. Those of in the 20s did 15 burpees; those of us in the 30s did 10 burpees.
We then gathered our coupons and moseyed (some quicker than others) back to the flag for a final set of hundos.

Naked-Man Moleskin:
- Glad to meet Flurry this morning. Did anyone tell him the start time? #afaf
- YHC was admittedly a little bitch this morning and didn’t prerun. Snowman made sure I didn’t forget it. Repeatedly. #accountability
