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 …
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 …
So Much for the ch4 forecast last night saying that the rain would be out of here by 5am and we would only get about 1/2 an inch! Fortunately, it settled to a light drizzle by the stroke of 6:30am. (not so much for our southshore bretheren) But the 1st …
That was the question of the morning at the Milestone Marsh. YHC told the Pax to mosey on over to the”Workout”Equipment and Bushwacker, who pretty much does a play-by-play broadcast during every beatdown, opined that it was really “children’s play” equipment. And, truthfully, he is probably correct. But, I have …

I came I saw (no other PAX) I rolled On my own, I did the half route of 3.2 miles. Without the obscenely slow Shooter or Steve weighing me down, I was able to keep a respectable 8.17/minute mile pace. Crescent City Classic immortality, here I come! Ben Todd 37 …
With a 12 mile, obstacle-filled mud fest of a CSAUP awaiting the men of F3 saturday morning, this particular man knew a 4:45am 10k would not be high on his priorities. However, a simple “maybe-ish” text to one half of “The Northshore Core”, Shooter, was enough to stoke the irrepressible …
As the latest CSAUP is nigh upon us, 3 of the bold participants gathered in the frigid gloom to do what we do here in F3, for ourselves and for our brothers -get the heart rates up and micro-tear a little muscle. You see, the thing about obstacle races is …
“I believe that every human mind feels pleasure in doing good to another” Thomas Jefferson And it was, indeed, a pleasure doing a good job whooping on the the PAX this morning! Warm-o-rama: Air Squared (people’s chair with seal claps) x20 21s – SSH in cadence, 1-5 out loud, 6-21 …
