I joined 10 of F3 RVA’s finest HIMs today on a journey around Dog Pile’s little known treasures….buckle up let’s go. 6 a.m. on the dot, we took off towards the nickel bridge, where UpChuck jokingly warned me the bridge was closed (I guess he didn’t want to do a burpee lightpole session). With that nugget in mind, I knew where would head first after our warmorama…Warmup: Circle up (Rosie made me in the middle of the circle)…began to give the F3 mission statement amongst chit chat…Hitch joins the crew (a little late). Warmup exercises included SSH, stretches (possibly Heist’s…

We were moving mountains on a glorious Tuesday morning in the lower Tuckahoe Area. Normally, a trip up Mt. Henrico includes a jaunt up Julian to what is the highest point in Henrico County…the intersection of Julian and Parham. But not today. It’s been a good 7 years or so that we’ve been meeting every Tuesday to run around the leafy hoods of Henrico County’s west end, and we’ve never gone down Ridge Road. This is partly because, for a long time, it was pretty darn dangerous. Like, “hey, I’m Lockjaw, let’s run on that dangerous two lane road this…

A mix of 8 gents traversed a refined version of the Carillon route. As to whether it was the normal direction or reverse, that is open for debate. Grand-Saab abides
The morning weather was beautiful. There was a bit of light just starting to peak over the James. 5:30am hit, The Doobies (Featuring Michael McDonald) were first up on the playlist.

i took time away from leading Qs, one thing is simply enjoy the workouts led by others yet the other part is yours truly on a tear going to this or doing that which takes me away from going to my usual spots especially the weekend ones. This morning…..15 brave souls(they forgot to read the Satan’s Hill and 1st fitness board to bring a weight). Luckily I brought a few extras plus the Cindy’s and Crabgrass having a couple sandbags available we worked it out. I like to try things out, do things we all are not used to today…
12 inspiring men of the gloom brought their KB’s to Circus Maximus to see what Fudd had in store. COP SSH’s, helicopters, stretches, merkins, Ukranian Soldiers, arm circles, Copperhead Squats, and some other stuff Mosey South down the alley behind the school with KB at rifle carry, circle up midway for a few exercises, continue south and start doing lunges while passing the KB between your legs with each lunge (Fireman Ed named this “Magics”. Stop and do 5 burpees and keep going. Arrive at the basketball courts and line up on the baseline for KB suicides. Do 5 reps…
The Pax set out on a route as simple as it gets with YHC. Here’s where: The Route R on Pump R on Ridgefield R on Raintree Circle the Lake behind the Raintree Racquet and Swim Club Continue on Raintree to Gayton Reverso on Raintree L on Falconbridge R on Pump Back to SF Numberama, Nameorama, COT MOLESKIN The Pax was greeted by Salt Lick’s hairy 2.0, Gloom. Well-meaning, but a bit eccentric, Lulu said “Boy Bye” and Wally was just like “Chill Bruh.” Miles were accomplished, no pickups were injured. It was a beautiful morning, ruined by the fact…
Beckoned by the sounds of Snuff Underground: Machine Forge, eight T-100 model Terminators arrived in the fading gloom. One of a few final fleeting dawns before humanity is eaten by A.I. Mosey to warmarama. Mosey around to the hill + wall. 11s mirkins run up the hill donkey kicks on the wall and back down. ICBMs in the air, we stumbled to the glass-strewn fallout shelter. Dry, dark and safe for a Dora. 200 LBCs, 300 squats, 400 monkey humpers. Mostly over the hump, audible to a hand release mirkin rendition singing ‘Let the Bodies Hit the Floor.’ And when…
