Field Day At the June 16th DogPile for YHC’s DogPile VQ we are having a full blown field day – F3 Style. As part of the lead up, I’m asking each of you who plan to participate to wear a t-shirt that best represents your elementary school years. The t-shirt can either be from your school, for you life long RVA types, or can highlight the era. Scower local thrift stores or ebay for your wears. There is a loose $5 limit. Don’t go nuts on cost. You can also make your own t-shirts. For those of us who attended…

Mission: Share the F3 experience with your 2.0s Date: May 19 Time: 7:05 a.m. Place: Dogwood Dell What: Puppy Pile, F3RVA’s warmish weather workout for Dad’s and 2.0s (open to all 2.0s). QIC: Hot Potato.  UpChuck will start us off, then pass the baton. Next Step: If you are Q-ing over the next 3 weeks, pass the word to the Pax. Next, Next Step: Bring your 2.0s (or, better yet, post for Dogpile and coax your M into bringing your 2.0s for the 7:05 a.m. start).  See you there.

Disclaimer:  Welcome to the F3RVA Century Classic.  This is a peer led workout.  None of us are certified instructors.  The details below will allow the opportunity for you to push yourself but please do not hurt yourself.  Much of this CSAUP will be executed overnight and on roads with varying traffic.  It is up to you to take the proper precautions for reflective gear and visibility accessories.  They are highly recommended and potentially required for participating in this CSAUP. Having said that… announcing… the F3RVA Century Classic.  Many of you have heard the rumors about this spring’s CSAUP.  Well, here are…

These are the participants I have: Wedding Singer Oyster EF Hutton Lab Rat Shakedown Anybody else? Anybody looking to carpool?  I am coming from Mechanicsville.  If you can convince me it’s on the way, I’ll pick you up.  Anybody bringing food?  Since it looks like a smaller group, I doubt a full blown camp site is in order, but if folks will hang out we can do something.

Our very own (kinda) Sassy hosts this event, so if you want to run a turkey trot but dont want to pay for one, you are in luck! This is the unofficial race invite – PLEASE forward to your runner friends (I know a lot of my emails are out-of-date – so help me to spread the word) When: Thursday November 23rd (that’s Thanksgiving right?) Where: Carter Park (Ashland Pool) – just past the YMCA on Ashcake – right on Maple – Carter Park is on your left. Race Number: Bring one from a past event…

Gentlemen! YHC is proud to serve on the Richmond Community Toolbank’s board along with Lightning Rod and we need your support for a little Second and Third F this Saturday evening for our annual fundraiser called Hammers & Ales. This Saturday at 6PM the Toolbank will have beer from Stone Brewing, barbecue from Buz & Neds (with plenty of other food) along with the MoDeBree Band for a celebration of the good work the Toolbank has done over the last year providing tools to enhance the charitable sector’s capacity to serve, facilitating hands-on volunteerism in the greater Richmond area. What’s…

It’s almost November.  That means mustaches will begin to proliferate.  I can’t think of a better pairing for a mustache than swolled up shoulders and arms. The baseline is 5k for the month.  That translates to 167 merkins every day for an entire month.  You can guarantee there will be a few merkin ladders sprinkled in throughout the month to help you reach your goal.  Modify your baseline as you see fit and pass this along to others that may be interested. http://bit.ly/2zbZDwv Push yourself.  Don’t hurt yourself.

All pax and family members are invited to participate in a monthly breathing exercise challenge for November.  Please note that this is NOT to take the place of our traditional November merkin challenge, rather to complement it.  Directions and video tutorials are on the spreadsheet. YHC is using this as a way to dive in to meditation and breathing exercises, so if there are knowledgeable pax out there, please share your tips and strategies. Breathe MFer, Breathe. Lab Rat

YHC has heard lots of mumble-chatter recently (Gomer Pyle, Shake Down, Hardywood, among others) about starting a 2nd hour workout on Saturdays about once a month.  No time like the present. Launch date will be October 21, 2017, for Double Dog (permanent name TBD).  YHC has the Q for Hour 1.  Anyone interested in the 2nd Hour of Power should plan to stick around after Dog Pile.  Basic plan will be to finish up Dog Pile (COT, etc.), take 5 or so to re-fuel, and start the 2nd hour about 7:10 a.m.  YHC will take the Q to start followed…

Pax, After the convergence, Helix and I will be making a beer together at the Ratskeller.  I have no other plans, and minimal beer, but I have a grill and a grocery store nearby.  There will be at least one set of corn hole, possibly the unveiling of another…depending on if Ronaldo works as fast as he runs. All are welcome, ’cause my wife is out of town!  I will give the downstairs bathroom a once over in case she finds out about this. We will be kicking off by meeting at Original Gravity (in Lakeside, by Lewis Ginter) at…
