YHC rucked the normal trails through Rockwood Park prior to the Florence beatdown. Enjoyed the peaceful ruck with some tunes playing but could have done without the humidity.

It was great being out in the gloom this morning and seeing the fellas. Thanks for letting me lead today.

Just a bunch of Maniacs
A group 4 ruckers and 2 runners made it out to Rockwood Park for some Morning Wood. We all hit our normal paved trail and as usual, passed by the runners as they made their way through the woods. With Rugged Maniac coming up next week, we talked about what to expect like obstacles and course conditions. We also talked about ways to prepare such as getting an early jump on hydrating and making sure to eat well. Looking forward to seeing all who plan on attending next Saturday and be sure to rock some F3 gear!

We Rolling Deep!
YHC almost didn’t get out of bed this morning due to some knee soreness but I’m glad I did because I would have missed out on the party! A total of 9, that’s right, 9 HIM got up early for some morning wood before the beatdown. 7 Ruckers set out at 6am with the birthday boy leading the pack. After completing our normal loop, we kinda split up due to some guys needing to head out. That’s when Footloose and Mudslide took over and took us back into the woods. Days like today are what I really enjoy about F3. The mumblechatter with Footloose and Mudslide was great. Found out we all have a few things in common. If you need help with your resume, check with Hardywood because from what I heard, sounds like Big Rig is going to be the next CEO of his company.
The runners hit the trails at 6:30am. Its funny how the Ruckers and the runners always seem to pass each other at about the same spot…Shout out to Chaplain (hope I spelled that right) and Touchdown for getting in those miles!

Just like riding a bike
14 HIM’s showed up to Rock N Roll for a House Party Q. Here’s how it went down.
Mosey to the basketball court for COP which included SSH, imperial walkers, Don Quixotes, and flutter kicks. Before each exercise we did 3 burpees OYO. While at the bball courts we moved to the baseline for suicides. The suicides’ included going down and back the traditional way, lunge walking, bear crawling, and broad jumping while stopping at each point to do an exercise.
Indigenous peoples run to the hill for a triple check which included mountain climbers, squats and the runner running up the hill.
Move to the parking lot for a 1 man dora which included doing 4 sets of 25 merkins, 50 squats, and 75 LBC’s running the parking lot after each set.
Mosey over to the adjacent parking lot for a 4 corners making sure we came back to hit each corner. Exercises were 10 merkins, 20 squats, 30 flutter kicks and 40 SSH’s – BTTF
Its been a while since YHC has been the Q at Rock N Roll to the point I wasn’t sure how things would go. I didn’t think I had enough planned and would be trying to come up with things to do on the fly. Turns out I actually had too much to do and ran out of time. I guess regardless of how long its been since your last Q, it comes back too you, just like riding a bike. Thanks for letting me lead today fellas!

Its all uphill from here
2 runners and 2 ruckers decided to hit the wet pavement of the trails of Rock N Roll this morning. Florence and Boberry started on the early bird shift and managed to get in about 3 miles while discussing the Leadership Development Process section of the Q source. While running our normal paved trail, Mudslide had the great idea of pushing it to another gear and hitting the hills extra hard so YHC follow suit. It seemed like a good idea at the time but if we only knew what Florence had in store, maybe we would have taken it a little easier! Great work today!

Just what the Doctor ordered.
With the ruckers already on the move, Mudslide and YHC took off promptly at 6:30 to hit the trails. At about a minute or so in, here comes DTH sprinting to catch up with us. The weather was great as well as the conversation. Looks like YHC will be joining Mudslide and the crew for Rugged Maniac in April. Prayers for DTH and his family as travel and do great works!

Only Brighter Days Ahead!
After record temps only a couple days ago, 7 Men decided to come out in 30 degree temps for Morning Wood. 3 ruckers hit the early bird route and 4 runners hit our normal trail. After months of running in darkness and needing a headlamp at some point during the run, today was the first day in a long time that we didn’t need one at all. It was great having that sunlight, especially to protect us from debris on those dark trails. As we were running, I couldn’t help but notice Mudslides bone conduction headphone . I got a strong recommendation from all the PAX that those were the way to go so I hit Best Buy this afternoon and got my first pair. Cant wait to break these bad boys in!
Thanks Fellas,

What happened to the heat?
After a couple days of around 70 degree weather, today brought below freezing temps. I arrived a little early and saw Doublemint, Footloose, and Big Rig rucking. 6:30 hits and here comes Big Rig, after leaving the others to continue rucking, dropping off his ruck and getting ready for the prerun. We hit our normal trail. Mumble chatter included family, work, Duke basketball, and how crazy this weather is.
