  • Diwali and Halloween Lights

    YHC woke his 2.0 up for this mornings workout and we arrived to find 3 more runners and 6 more ruckers to have a large crowd of 11 this cool morning for a run and ruck session.

    Runners immediatley took off to runa 4 – 4.5 mile route this morning. Ruckers launched and we picked up Bulkhead on the way to tour the Rutland area homes with some great Halloween Lights. We saw one house celebrating Diwali – the festival of lights, so a great morning for a Ruck. We finished with 2.5 miles this morning.

    Great to see Winchester from Spotsylvania this am…he lead the pack with Yardsale. Glad to have Hash running this morning…he is getting ready for the airforce. Spit is training for the 1/2 marathon.

    Numberama / Namerama – Opus took us out in prayer.

    Great workout, hope to see you in the gloom soon…Cheers….CB!

    This how it went down

    Ruckers – Did a walk around Giles

    Runners – YHC and BAM did an out and back of Honey Meadows Estates to get in 4.25 miles. The rest of the runners ran a little shorter route in Honey Meadows to close to 4 miles

    YHC has enjoyed running with BAM these last couple of runs and the mumble chatter about our lives

    Awesome to see a great showing in DaVille

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Ruck Takeover

    6 Ruckers outnumbered the 3 runners in the gloom of Atlee HS on Tuesday morning.

    With full weighted vest and their dog by their side, the ruckers set out for a loop around Honey Meadows and back

    Runners took two different route. BAM and YHC did a modified farmhouse loop finishing with just over 4 miles while Opus stayed close with some school loops

    Great turnout this morning!

  • Cool Runnings

    5 Runners and 2 ruckers enjoyed cooler temps this morning at Atlee HS.

    Runners did a out and back loop that went around the schools, into Taylor Farms, the crossing Atlee Station into Chickahominy Oaks heading up and down the hills on the back of the neighborhood finally return back the way we came. The lead runs got from 4.75 to 5 miles in while second ground got in 4 miles

    Ruckers did their thing with loops around the school for 2.5ish miles

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • A Personal Best for BAM!

    Two Runners and Three Ruckers started from Atlee High School on this amazing Tuesday with temperatures in the lower 50s. With this perfect weather, these were the routes.

    Ruckers – Went somewhere into Giles and possibly other locations.

    Runners – Did the Giles/Craney Island route. Total Distance was about 4.2 miles.

    COT: Numberarama, Name-O-Rama, Announcements, BAM! took us out.

    NMS:

    It was a pleasure running with BAM! today. The pace seemed faster than normal today. The route we took into Giles is about as hilly as a DaVille route can be. In saying that, BAM! said as we approached the AO that this was the first time he has ever jogged 4 miles without walking. Well done! YHC has seem many over the years increase both their running distances and pace after joining F3. As BAM! said, running with others can help with this. Its always great to see this type of growth.

  • Tuesday @ DaVille

    8 Davillians made it out Tuesday for some running and rucking.

    2 Ruckers did their thing

    It was hill repeats day for the 6 runners thanks to Opus’ suggestion the night before.

    We headed to Giles and did 4 hill repeats on the clubhouse loop before continuing on run through Giles into Craney Island then getting one last hill in with the fly over before returning to the Atlee parking lot for 4 to 4.5 miles

    Great run by everyone!

    Spit On That!!

  • Through the Mist

    7 Davillians arrived on a misty but comfortable Tuesday morning for some running and rucking

    Runners: Phonics and YHC ran the farmhouse loop for 4.25 miles while the rest of the runners did a 4 on 1 off run

    Ruckers: Did some loops around the schools

    It felt great to get back out running after missing the last couple of week. Thanks Phonics for keeping a little slower pace but still pushing not to stop

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Has that guy been EHed?

    2 Ruckers and 5 Runners posted to Atlee High School on this perfect and once again humid Tuesday for the Raider Run/Ruck. These were the routes.

    Ruckers – Went somewhere around Atlee.

    Runners – Did the farmhouse loop into Kings Charter and back for somewhere between 4 and 4.5 miles.

    COT: Numberarama, Name-O-Rama, Announcements, Opus took us out.

    It was great having other runners today. Last week, YHC decided to walk with the ruckers since he was the solo runner posting. (YHC was okay with that idea last week.) Much of the conversation centered around Sunday’s storm and damage that was caused by it. Atlee High School still has quite a bit of cleanup to do because of that storm.

    As the PAX was beginning to gather for the COT, a car pulls up and out comes a guy who is getting ready to go for a jog. At least 3 of us knew him and were fairly positive that he had been EHed many times in the past. Maybe one day Bryan will join us, but it does not appear it will happen anytime soon. YHC has tried to EH several people in the past who are early risers and are in fairly good shape but has for years been unsuccessful in getting them to post. Why some are easy to try and commit to F3 and others stay away from it will remain a mystery to YHC for now.
