Beaver was doing a little travel for work up in Northern VA this week after taking a few weeks off to spend time with the M and 2.0. So I looked up the nearest AO and there she was…across the way from Dulles airport tucked into what looks like some sort of secured area where Astro turf soccer fields where 5 arrived on time and Running Man was running about 10-15 mins late, no that’s not how he got his name unfortunately. we did a little bit of everything and brought home a couple new moves to introduce to the…

In solidarity with YHC’s 2.0, who posted at Heartbreak this morning, YHC posted at Terminus in Atlanta. Another Proud Dad day! TBR works at Chik fil a and had visited VCU’s location recently. He was very impressed with RVA, including the trail system. YHC hopes he posts next time!
One man launched from the previously mentioned rucking ground. Temperatures were, again, a seasonal 70 and sunny. According to the young man enjoying some sweet weed at 5:15 a.m. (not me) on the hotel’s back patio, the following might have happened. 60 minutes under 38 pounds. Number, name, and YHC took himself out. NMS: always fun to see people’s faces when they mistake a weighted vest for a police vest. This young man took about 3 seconds of “about to poop his pants” before YHC said,”Good morning” and continued walking past. YHC thinks weed might not even be illegal in…
One man stepped onto the rucking ground. Temperatures were 70 and sunny. According to the game warden patrolling with her hound, the following might have happened. 55 minutes under 38 pounds. Cup of coffee in hand, podcast on tap. Number, name, and YHC took himself out.
“It is not the mountain we conquer, but ourselves.” – Sir Edmund Hillary Three PAX from F3RVA, NTB, Pad Thai, and L Woods, traveled to Cary, North Carolina for GTE 59, led by Cadres PowerClean and Uncle Rico. For NTB and Pad Thai, this was their second GrowRuck after Richmond’s event last year. For L Woods, it was a first—completely new territory. After Friday night’s rally, the group started off with the KingBuilder at Carpex AO Shaken Not Stirred in Bond Park. At 6:00 PM, the adventure began. L Woods was immediately thrown into the fire as Platoon Leader, learning…
YHC posted with 5 of Charlottes finest. Workout was kettlebel and lucky for me the Q Toby lent me one. Warmarama: Standard set of warm ups. COP: Completed various kettlebell exercises taking a lap around parking lot after each set. Sets consisted of 3x3x20. Exercises included overhead press, skullcrushers, curls, lawnmower, squats, pull ups, front raises, bench press, WWIII’s, etc. Q took us out in prayer
When your down range and there are 4 AO’s within 3 miles of hotel it hard to make an excuse not to post. The closest AO was .3 miles which is closer than Satan’s Hill to me (.4 miles). So I pulled myself from the fartsack for a beatdown at Hollywood provided by Blackbeard. Warm up jog then right into it. Mosey around large portions of the parking lot in a square. Cards were placed along the way. It was our job to match them or do exercise. Copious amount of about 20 different exercises were completed as well as…
5 took to Red Pill. Temps were 70 and sunny. According to the Karen in the black Ford pick-up, the following might have happened: Some nutty circle of pain in which F3 trivia was hurled at the Pax. Wrong answers merited burpees. One star. Not recommended. SSH, IWs, Toy (Ukrainian) soldiers, Hip Circles (new to YHC), and Hillbillies (which weren’t our hillbillies, but YHC digresses). Pick up your coupon. YHC exchanged his 38 pound ruck-sack for a 32 pound Cindy. YHC’s pal Starbuck’s carried that ruck for almost all of the next 45 minutes, perhaps 40 minutes in total. YHC…

On a rainy Wednesday near the nations capital YHC went out to discover what the DC metro area had to offer in form of a beatdown. YHC was not disappointed and remained dry most of the workout?
