Runners and their bike gang hit the mean streets of Mary Mumford. Miles were covered, stories we shared, and there was envy and admiration for Bodo’s vibrant shoes.
YHC look us out, but No Tools finished with a joke.

Clydesdales, Helicopter Squats, and F1 Racing
It was that type of morning, as triple checks and post-workout coffee provide ample mumble chatter. It seems this crew is over 200 lbs and many seemed to enjoy too many cinco de mayo bean burritos.
After COP, we made our way down the hill and then up Overlook where clear vistas and warm roads accompanied the beat down. We went a tad over on the time, but sometimes that is the case when covering distance.
It’s been a great ride so far with this crew! Thanks for leading the way!
YHC took us out.

One For the Records
One rucker and the rest runners; off we went on our routes. All distances were covered.

M
The Roman numeral for 1000. Today was the day and 11 of RVA’s finest came out to see what was in store for this momentous occasion. There was recognition for the new sign for the smallest park, parking lot workouts, various mobile workouts through the neighborhood, and general all around good time.
YHC took us out.
I appreciate everyone’s support today, but also over the years that I have been with F3!

Warmer Than Expected
Four yogis emerged for an early morning routine with good coverage across a range of movements. It was certainly warmer than expected.

Simplify
Fourteen runners and walkers came out with a surprise of chilly weather. Routes were conveyed and according to the coyotes in the woods, the following occurred.
Out the bat cave, across the river and head downstream. Turn around 23 minutes into the run and return.
YHC took us out.

Luck of the Irish
Nine made perfect numbers for triple check, despite the Pax’s desire to form teams of 4, 2, and 3. But first, off to the small parking lot for COP – hitting the usuals.
Once warmed up, we moseyed to the lucky horseshoe for triple check.
Triple Check 1 – run the horseshoe, BTTW, donkey kicks
Triple Check 2 – run the horseshoe, HRM, LBCs
Triple Check 3 – run the horseshoe, flutter kicks, squats
Triple Check 4 – run the horseshoe, box cutters, Carolina dry docks
Triple Check 5 – run the horseshoe, right oblique crunch, left oblique crunch
Some stretching at the end kept us loose. YHC took us out.
Announcements:
Century Classic is coming back – 100 miles of rucking, running, and maybe something else.
Breaking Bread is up for grabs in coming months.
The Bridge will be back in the Spring.

Spring in Bloom
Three emerged at the strike of 7 and off we went on our respective run and ruck routes. Plenty of animals out early and the first of the flowers are in bloom. The sunrise around the river is spectacular!

Truth
Two emerged from the early gloom as Mr Rogers answered YHC’s late night call. Off we went covering ground and deeper meaning.

Go Your Own Way
Seven runners and ruckers went their own way after the pull of a Seigel Center run enticed folks to keep the winning streak alive. Others did recon elsewhere in the city, but we can’t talk about that.
