  • how’s YOUR prostate?!

    A few SOJ HIM’s rucked 2.75 miles around w lovely paved trail loops of Rockwood Park discussing everything from chainsaws to prostates. Solid work gents! Yours AYE! ~DTH

  • THERE’S a Log For You

    YHC and Rodeo Clown Rucked for a hour – completed the woods loop plus a couple laps around the park. Big Rig was out running early. I believe he got in 6 plus miles. Highlights included running into our long lost F3 brother Body Karate, who was working out with a weighted vest. Hopefully we convinced him to return!

  • The Red Flag Ruck

    We rucked for an hour. House Party provide excellent life coaching, as usual. He also had some funny lines about the girls of Hopewell High School back in the day.

  • 4:20

    House and I rucked for an hour. Big Rig was Big Riggin’- launched at 420 and got in 8 plus miles. We all had to leave before the bootcamp for various reasons.

    A good time was had by all.

  • House Party has some sneaky tracking skills

    Boberry and Big Rig got an early 5 + in. Boberry had to go sling some hams. Big Rig got a big lap in with Rodeo Clown. Somehow House Party chased them down in the middle of the woods. Big Rig got a couple more miles in as House Party and Rodeo Clown ventured on. Good times, great conversations.

  • Rucking and rolling

    5 HIMS came out early before the light for some morning wood. Big Rig was already out getting miles in but decided to stop and join us. We covered 2.76 miles around the park including a short detour through the woods. Good conversation was had including talk about concussions, bunions and shoes, grow ruck, and work. The more I hear about grow ruck the more I become curious. Don’t think I can swing this fall but maybe in the future. It doesn’t sound like anyone other than DTH and L Woods wants a round two with that. Respect to them. Privilege to lead you fellas this morning.

    At 6am YHC was about to launch a solo ruck, when House Party rolled in and saved the day. We stuck to the main road and parking lots, and completed multiple laps……even tried out the new port-a-potties! Great conversation topics including iPhones reading people’s minds.

  • Do you have the mobile ID?

    YHC wanted to double dip this morning and get a pre Purple Rain warm up so I snagged the Q late last night. Wasn’t sure anyone else would show up but was pleasantly surprised. 3 HIMS rucked the walking path at Rockwood. Nothing fancy, just grinding out 2.88 miles in just over 52 minutes before the morning light. There was some chatter about Grow Ruck, mobile ID versus global entry versus TSA pre check, and life stuff.

    It was high 30s but felt much warmer. A great start to the day!

  • I LOVE YOU

    A frosty foursome gathered for the Valentine’s Rockwood Ruck and enjoyed 3 miles of solid bromantic conversation. We also toyed with a little Garmin spelling bee, and won first place!  (see Slack for Garmin image)  

    It is true my beloved F3RVA PAX, I love you. Yes, ALL of you (whether or not you like it).  But I’m truly thankful to have reciprocated love from so many of you. F3 is a powerfully unique brotherhood, but like everything else in life, you’ll reap what you sow. Keep pushing past the status quo – iron sharpens iron. ~DTH
