    As YHC is a day late getting this BB out and given his age, most of yesterday he does not recall. YHC and Honeymoon did have a discussion about the presence of Wilson and how we thought he might have gone with the runners. When the runners returned YHC did look for Wilson but he was not with them either. YHC was going to include Wilson in the head count for this BB but didn’t want to mess Big Data up

    It was nice to have Rosie and Gumbo out with us again. Nancy is single handedly carrying the reputation of the New Market crew Oh wait we forgot Rosetta is a New Market guy…. I guess we might have forgot about Rosetta, it must be that little car he drives.

  • If we did rename him, is there a better F3 name than Gumbo?

    13 Strong men made their way through the fog, 1 solo Broga master, 1 former FNG now regular, 1 blast from the past, 1 that took a wrong turn and crossed the river and 9 regulars. According to the older gentleman that walks the perimeter of the park this is what he recalls.

    BTTF

    Numbers / Names and DTH took us out

    NMS:

    It was good to see Gumbo back out in the Gloom but after being gone for so long some of the PAX was thinking he might need a new name. Much thought was given but really Gumbo is the best name the PAX could think of so no change was made. Handshake made his way south of the river and it was good to see him too. Unfortunately, YHC was not willing to get out of the fartsack early this morning and Last Call had to do Broga all by himself which might have freaked the dog walkers out just a bit. T-Claps for Loogie making his second F3 appearance, keep posting brother it might get easier one day.

  • DC 2021 – 20 year 9/11 tour

    170 F3 and FIA PAX gathered for one of the coolest experiences YHC has ever had with F3. Not just because it was the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks but because it was about 160 men +/- and 10 +/- women that got together to push their bodies as far and hard as they could.

    The workout had fairly simple instructions. Start at the bottom of the Lincoln Memorial and run to the top and back, do an exercise for the 6 and repeat

    The catch was you did the stair climb 26 times (wow) YHC’s legs where burning

    Each time before we ran up and down, one of the PAX would read a fact from what happened that day 20 years ago in a timeline of how it happened

    YHC was picked to Q one of the exercises at the bottom while waiting on the 6. YHC thought about Man Killers but went with Knee Slides which the PAX of 170 did not know existed and found out what a ab burner they are when you do 30 (4 count). We had also done an ab burner the round before with an exercise YHC will interduce RVA to next week.

    In total transparency YHC sat in his car arguing with the little voice in his head that said “just head home nobody will care” until finally YHC just shut it down and got out of the car. Luckily Bulls eye came driving up when he did and YHC had someone to help keep him company.

    It is apparent that the New Market crew has not been to a Doozy Q in a while and probably never ventured up to the Forge for a DTH Q. Wilson and Duke had many questions about what Arm Pretzels where and when it came to Tooth Fairies close enough seemed to be the call of the day. A good time was had by all and the bakery has really ramped up their game in the cooler weather, YHC thought he might loose a couple passing by that area.

  • Is this a Sisyphus????

    Big numbers this morning or so it seemed like big numbers. 3 runners, 2 regular SOJers and 2 travelers hit the pavement at Twin Team. According to the Staff of BWES this is what transpired.

    Convergence on Monday at Hoedown

    NMS:

    Nice to see some new/old faces in the Gloom this morning. With Mr. Holland showing up YHC was willing to last minute give the Q over for a Sisyphus but the offer was turned down. The weather was perfect for an early morning beatdown, YHC remembers looking at the dashboard reading in the Hyundai as 70 and sunny but it is an old car with lots of miles so that reading may be +/- 20 degrees

  • Old people can’t remember squat

    YHC has been waiting all day and checking in periodically to check on the BB and starting to wonder what the He!! the Q is doing not getting the BB in, who was the Q this morning? Oh yah I was the Q, D@m8 I got to get on it. Getting old sucks and YHC’s memory is fading.

  • Saturday morning Bern Fest

    NMS:

    DTH, Greenbow and YHC ventured out to visit a men’s retreat in Windy Gap NC that Greenbow took YHC to 3 years ago and YHC (God willing) will never take a year off. YHC was able to bring DTH this year and it proved to be every bit as powerful as it has ever been. Thank you Jesus for bringing YHC into this awesome event and prepare the hearts of the next line of men that will be asked to go next year.

    The 4 FNG’s that we brought into the Gloom where from different areas of the country and where in their own right very fit. They probably didn’t expect the high cardio and leg work of a Doozy Q but they where more than up to the challenge of pumping out a few merkins. YHC hopes to see these fine men next year and prays that they will join the ranks of their local F3 community.
