What do you do when the guy who’s been holding your ruck gear no-shows? Load up an extra bag with a set of heavy bocce balls and roll out in style to the jolly cadence of balls clacking. Nice to catch up with PR and Scram and get to know Bru. Rocked out a little over 3 miles through Larus trails and Stony Point Fashion Park. Deep conversation followed at Einstein along theological lines. God is good all the time! Yours AYE! ~DTH

6 HIMs skipped the coffee on a warm morning and got to work! Rudy needed a minute so we did a quick lap around the block, rendezvoused, and off we went. Travelled to the depths of Bayfront, swung by Studfinder’s cul-de-sac, then up and around Alamo and back to the start. Just short of 3.5 miles. Today we pondered how effective the Paw Patrol would be in real life without having thumbs; would Donald Duck really eat turkey on Thanksgiving; Matlock took notes of Rudy’s hot takes on the Broncos upcoming 6-11 season; and how we can use ice cream…
YHC was excited that we finally have a Giles Resident attending DaPile last Saturday and returned today for a Ruck Walk. We had 4 today and no runners for this cool morning with a Red Sun rising, a great site on our return to Atlee High School from Giles! Simple Giles loop route and totaled 2.4 miles. Welcome Thunder to your second workout and look forward to seeing you in the gloom. Cheers….CB!
Two HIMs grabbed their sack and knocked out 3 miles this morning with some weight on our backs. To spice things up we did a mile carrying a random stone. Had some good chatter about Wonka’s upcoming family camping adventure with both sides of the family. He’s also driving over 30 minutes each way for these workouts. I think he’s gonna be our connection to the Hampton roads for F3! “To give anything less then your best is to sacrifice the gift.” -Steve Prefontaine Don’t Waste The Day!
Definitely not sunny but not far off 70. We still had a great time despite the woods of Larus not providing much if any cover from the deluge. Was great to have 4 brothers out to ruck this morning. Scram provided the synopsis of the 10th Chapter of JPs 12 Rules For Life—Be precise in your speech. Till the next one. Summer tour is upon us. 45MOM for the next installment. Bring a towel for the ride home!
5 wet bandits made their way to the stop sign today. Some dawned umbrellas, some embraced the rain in a more natural way. 5:30 off we go Did the typical route through the hilly part with a brisk pace. We managed to make it past Toby’s house before any HR violations. Topics today were Holly Madison, what age is appropriate for Jurassic Park, the importance of submarine regulations, and TSG found out that Flyboy is the Bubba Gump of Midlothian golf courses. rain was consistent but couldn’t hold us back!
YHC heard the F3 RVA satellite office known as The Clinic was located somewhere in the sunshine state. After five days and 25mi rucked along the redneck riviera, still no sign of any glowing neon calling YHC home. Still a couple more days and miles under load to go. Will report back.
1 HIM turned Into Bristlecone Blvd anticipating the view of tail/headlights in the PFP parking lot since YHC rang out a “ruck tomorrow” announcement over the #newkent channel last night. Beaver really did not want any part of getting out of the fart sack this morning, but I can’t post an OTB ruck and not show up for the men. Getting up and to an AO truly is half the battle, so since I’m here why throw in the towel now? Since I’ve got some extra time this morning let’s give it some extra effort and take her 5 miles…
4 brave HIMs came out to play in the rain this morning. Had we known there was vandalism running amuck in Pountrey, we may have hit the streets earlier! According to Rudy’s Ring camera, here’s what took place… Went down Bellstone Ct to check in on some of our compadres, but lights were off. Loop down to the reservoir and back up past McGruffs to the burnt down gas station and through the rolling hills. Good pace today, rain held off for the most part, and we’re better men for being out there! Lots of good chatter. Fandango wanted to…
Three of the F3RVA pax made it out for this morning’s edition of RH. At 4:58am YHC was considering his options had 2 of his fellow ruckers not made an appearance. Thanks for the company! Given the conditions we headed into Larus where we were afforded some cover from the elements as we traversed red, green then blue and back to red trails. Till the next one.
