The Thang:
In between each set, we did a round of voting by various criteria. The criteria are at the end. We continued to alternate between Set A and Set B until time.
Set A — Ground & Pound
10 reps each
1. Sandbag Deadlifts
2. Sandbag Clean to Shoulder — 5 each side
3. Sandbag Front Squats
4. Sandbag Over-the-Shoulder Tosses
5. Sandbag Bear-Hug Carry — 40 yards
Set B — Get Up & Go
10 reps each
1. Sandbag Bent-Over Rows
2. Sandbag Thrusters
3. Sandbag Good Mornings
4. Sandbagbaggie
5. Sandbag Toss – 20 Yards
Honestly, this BD was a lower-back demolisher
Voting Rounds, on the Q kept count of votes
Round 1 — First Impression: Put your point on any name.
Round 2 — Best F3 Name: Vote based specifically on whether it sounds like an AO. Round 3 — Identity: Which best fits this particular location/community?
Round 4 — The Negative Vote: Instead of adding a point, subtract one from a name you don’t want.
Round 5 — Final Four: Eliminate everything except the four highest-scoring names.
Round 6 — Final Two: Everyone puts a point on one of the remaining four. Top two advance.
Round 7 — Last Chance Dance: Each group took their name and walked a loop, coming up with a compelling case for their name. Upon return, PAX were allowed to switch sides. All pax are too stubborn to change their minds.
We decided upon… AO NORTH BEACH
Moleskine: We go fast alone, we go far together. We want to be a cooperative, collaborative AO, where we stick together. Hence voting done by the whole group!
