  • Focus on Evolution

    A group of 10 HIMs gathered at Ruckhenge on this pleasantly cool morning to kickoff the New Year. With the New Year brings new territory on the map as we hustled our way over to Fisher Elementary to explore the grounds. At the soccer fields we “lost” Dealer and Snip to injury, giving the PAX a chance to practice our casualty carries. We then returned back to the flag for coffeerama at Einstein Bagel. Today’s discussion topic centered around how we have individually evolved from the time we were 26 years old, and some great stories were shared around the table.

    Always an honor to lead the group!

    Announcements:
    – Clean-up day at Rock-n-Roll in the works for 1/10 but may be postponed due to weather.
    – Frozen Triangle coming in early-February. Check Slack for details and sign-up!
    – Happy 50th birthday to our man Bone Thugz!

    YHC took us out in prayer, lifting up Thugz’ kids.

  • Choose your path

    3 early risers decided to face the cold temps for a ruck/walk/run. The Pax started out together for several mins. with each HIM eventually choosing his own path. Big Rig got in his usual run while Rodeo Clown and YHC rucked/walked together for ~ 3 miles.

  • Mean Streets of NM

    A party of 5 hit the mean streets of New Market and the soon to be neighborhood to the south. 2 Ruckers and 3 walkers and countless fartsackers had grand dreams of putting in some morning mileage. With no other takers other than the NM crew and one OC we decided to stay close to home. Overall 4 miles were logged and 5 miles of mumblechatter transpired.

  • Iron Sharpens Iron

    2 Iron Haulers emerged from their fartsacks for a pre Lumberyard EC Ruck and unknowingly set a rather quick pace while having some great conversation. The 2nd of 3 miles was recorded at a 15:53/mi pace. It was nice to see our Saturday crew rolling in ready to go!

  • Rucktrey Standard Saturday

    The lads rucked on a brisk Saturday morning. Part of New Year’s resolutions are consistency and showing up everyday for yourself. This set of pax showed up and did the task asked. 3.5 miles of walking and talking with some heavy loads on their backs (pause).

  • Ruckhenge 123125

    8 of the pax came out for the final edition of RH for the year. The gander through the woods went a little long but it was worth it. Great 2nd F as always, thanks for the company on this frosty morning. Heres to the new year and reaching all those goals. SYITG!

    Announcements: Convergence at Dogpile @ 7am.

    NMS: As always, i felt so invigorated after spending the start of the morning with the fellas. Reflecting on fatherhood, the challenges of the last year and looking forward to whats next. In the past few years I have come across the idea of the past year review. Popularized by Tim Ferris, it suggests an alternative to the typical new years resolutions that we are all too familiar with. Instead, review your past year week by week, month by month and put everything you did, people you engaged with and anything else that you experienced in either a good column or a negative column. Summarize the top positive items/events/company and start planning more of them in your new year. Trips, people who you enjoyed being around, anything that was positive, then as much as possible avoid “signing up” for the negative ones out of obligation or FOMO. I am just really thankful for the opportunity to spend so much time with the brothers of the F3 community. More to come. Have a great, safe end to 2025.

  • Last RR for 2025

    YHC showed up to 3 brothers ready to run or ruck for the last workout for 2025 for Raider Run Ruck.

    Bam ran the farmhouse loop in Kings Charter logging in 4.5 miles.

    Yardsale, Bulkhead and YHC rucked 2.5 miles going through Honey Meadows loop.

    Numberama/namerama – Yardsale took us out in prayer.

    Great workout this morning gents! See you in the gloom soon! Cheers…CB!

  • Ruckhenge 122425

    Twas a merry Christmas eve morning that saw 5 of the pax assemble for a walk down some of Stony Point’s well illuminated streets. Nothing fancy today though we did tackle a few hills. Thanks for coming out this morning and here’s to a great festive season.

    Announcements: New Years Day convergence at Dogpile.

  • wear your BROWN pants

    The NOS cold-weather ruckers brought along our beloved 60# Sandy for an up-hill down-dale trek across new terrain. The promise was something challenging enough that wearing brown pants might hide the fact you shat yourself in the process. The goal was to use fingers of woods behind/between neighborhoods to circumnavigate an apartment complex near SPFP – and we succeeded in that goal. Also it turns out there are some really lovely open hardwood spaces to walk through in these back neighborhood nomansland areas. Enjoyed the banter as PAX tried to figure out where they were during the ruck, and felt challenged with some deep thoughts at Einstein. Until next time, yours AYE! ~DTH

    COMING UP:

    • 12/23 NoToll – Rosie’s annual 12 Days beatdown down and gift exchange
    • 12/25 Forge – DTH Christmas Whoopin
    • 01/01 Dogpile – New Years Convergence starting at 0700

  • We Did 10

    At 6am YHC and a newly enhanced House Party hit the streets. We rucked through all the usual Rockwood Park hot spots – even passing Boberry and Big Rig on the paved nature trail. Apparently they arrived early and got in a 9 mile run – impressive! Our total mileage was not revealed.
