Great morning in the Gloom with a visitor from NC and two FNGs. After a thorough disclaimer and explanation of the 3 Fs, we were off to the Magazine/river corner of the park where we circled up for a quick warmup: SSHx25 IWx25 LSSx20 Mountain Climber x20 / Plank Jack …
After a weeklong hiatus from F3, spent hanging with Captain Hollywood aboard the USS Kidd, it felt really good to be back in action this morning. First off, t-claps to Bushwhacker, who responded promptly to Turbo’s call to EH more FNG’s, producing one the very next beatdown at the near-comatose …
With the Northshore convergence taking place, YHC wasn’t sure how many Pax would post to the Mothership. Expecting a large presence on the NS, YHC was surprised to find 25 Pax gathered around the 4 shovel flags. YHC was very happy to see 3 FNG’s post, keep up the EH’ing! …
The F3 Nation knew about YHC before YHC knew about the F3 Nation. You see, YHC’s brother-in-law, Lynchpin, lives in Charlotte. In the early days, before the F3 Nation planted its flag in NOLA, Lynchpin routinely and enthusiastically regaled YHC with stories of legendary beatdowns and CSAUPs, tongue in cheek …
On a Friday morning with perfect temps and dry conditions, we started on what I hoped would be the greatest, most spiritual F3 workout of all time. It was time for Rev Sox to emphasize the Rev in his name and throw imprecatory curses on the Sox. To give this …
With Captain Sparkles and Steve pursuing the bright lights of Hollywood South, only two F3 brethren took to the streets of Old Mandeville for the morning’s beatdown. 6.2 mi run at comfortable pace—I mean, seriously, the Crescent City Classic is over, and February’s Run Ranger Run has been overshadowed lately …
The Scramble produced a multitude of Detours on this Gloom. Two of these Detours would be produced by a single PAX member named Bushwacker. Upon his arrival the QIC and Waterpik were welcomed by him exiting is vehicle in what seemed to be LIME green Yoga pants or may be …
From the Tough Mudder almost a month ago, YHC banged up his right arm good and sore. Although it’s no longer lovely shades of green, brown and yellow, it’s still nowhere near 100%. So today YHC attempted an armless BeatDown. He was successful…mostly. After a disclaimed, the PAX was off …
Today’s workout reminded me why I love F3. I showed up to one lonely pax member standing by the shovel flag and ready to go. It is a bummer when you show up for a workout and you are the only one there (Sorry that happened waterpic), but it does …
So several years ago, YHC’s 2.0 asked him why six was afraid of seven? Because seven eight (ate) nine. I still laugh at the thought of this seven-year old’s joke, which I suspect to be Sacred Heart lore that perhaps originated from Hawg’s days there many moons ago. Anyway, with …
