A robust PAX of 18 celebrants posted to the Forge in support of DTH completing Seven Years in F3. Their reward for posting was, as expected, a one of a kind ride on the pain train mixing pure sweatfest brutality with a theme of sevens, a nice tour of the AO, lovely background beats to keep the energy flowing, and generating a little Garmin sketch with our movements. Here’s to seven years! The THANG: WARMERAMA: Mosey over in front of the school and circle up Welcome & Disclaimer Warm-up Reps (always x7 reps IC) SEVEN OF DIAMONDS: Stops for the…

10 of F3RVAs men gathered at Einsteins Bagels for this weeks edition of RH. Weather was perfect and after the usual welcome slagging off from the crusher of oranges, we were off. We began on the red trail, linked to green and then slipped under Chippenham parkway for the Stony Point sections. We passed around a very light 60lb sand bag for some extra fun and covered just over 3 miles this morning. As always the conversation was great and our follow up coffeeteria was full of humor. Good discussion on how identity drives our habits and vice versa. Thanks…
6 of RVA’s finest came out early to limber up and share some laughs on a perfect autumn morning. The sprinklers were blasting, the breeze was brisk and the bodily functions audible. Areas of emphasis included shoulders, back, hips, glutes and hammys. Standard shavasana was enjoyed. Tales throughout the session included beach etiquette, sunscreen application and family dating. A specific Pax member really enjoyed the numerous questions regarding his recent acquisition.
