Twenty-seven of my brothers posted at Dogpile for a day and workout that is very near and dear to my heart. Tragically, twenty years ago tomorrow, there was a shooting at my law school that left three – very important people in my life – dead; and three others wounded. Today’s workout was in honor of Angela Dales, Thomas Blackwell and Anthony Sutin (those whose lives were taken far too soon, and whose lives remain a large part of my “why.”) After sharing the tragic story of January 16, 2002 with my brothers this morning, I explained that I needed…

Today was a perfect morning for the GP Dogpile VQ and 21 studs gathered to kick the weekend off right.

YHC and Spit volunteered to take the Q as Bulkhead was under the weather for this morning’s workout. 19 showed up for this anticipated beatdown so we had some work to do to make this one worthy of a fine F3RVA Marine brother. So here is what went down: COP We mosey from the flag to the first crop circle next to the amphitheater one lap then form a circle for the following warm up exercises: 20 SSH, 10 DQ, 10 4ct helicopters, 15 arm circles (10 small and 5 big), reverso, 25 4 ct American Hammers, 20 4 ct…

COP: Arm Circles, Cherry Pickers, DQs, SSHs, Mt. Climbers, WWIIs & Merkins. The Thang:Burpee Back Mountain – I wanted to pay homage to DTH with this one. Without his push, I would have never stepped up to Q. I’m grateful for that push to step outside of my comfort zone. And the time he did Burpee Back Mountain, after I laughed at the name, I thought it sounded impossible (another push for growth). It’s a Dora of 100 Burpees. P1 does those while P2 runs up and down the amphitheater. To get out of the amphitheater, at each level, we…
