A record 213 men formed up at 6 a.m. for the latest edition of The Dogpile (officially a pop-up stop on the Summer Tour). Temperatures were 70 and sunny. With UpChuck’s 9th Anniversary on offer, the PAX were treated to a menage of many YHC’s favorite Q’s from other PAX members over the years. To start, the PAX were given two choices: 1 hour of pain (beatdown) or 100 miles of pain (ride). 13 choose the beat down, and one (Florence) was FIFO (first-in, first-out, in his PC). Sorry to miss you, my brother. 200 chose the ride. According to…

It all started with Fargo challenging me about 3 weeks ago to do a Murph with him on Saturday May 24. I said I’ll do it, but only if you do it at an F3 AO. He said he would think about it, so I went ahead and signed him up on what I thought was May 24, but I accidentally signed him up for May 31. Also, I announced on Slack it was his VQ, but was then informed by the local F3 police (ahem, Handshake) that someone could not use a well-known pre-set workout for their VQ, so…

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…

7 showed up this, May 17th, 2025, to offer marriage advise to Señor Frog at the Dog Pile. YHC had several things planned until the acting safety officer (Mr. Rogers) pointed out all the rain & lighting and recommended we stay in the protective covering of the amphitheater. He is a smart one; He is… We did a traditional COP warm up with some escalating dips the hard way. We moseyed a bit to the pump house to admire some RVA history while stopping for a few pull ups along the way. We moseyed back to the flag for a…
