  • Running under the stars

    Mumble chatter of previous rucks we’ve talked about trying to get more distance in. We started out rucking into the neighborhood under a shooting star. After a quick loop I let the guys know we’re going the distance. We started to mosey, I called out to the group to pick a house and that’s where we would slow to our usual pace. This is how we continued throughout the ruck to get us past the 5K mark. Intermittently finding markers to run to. This was definitely a calf burner on the hills but a great warmup for the Beaver Q. Choo Choo probably thought they’re was an emergency as we ran to meet up with him to interrupt his parking lot broga/ run session. We did finish up a few minutes early to meet the new FNG’s. Numbers are growing in the lumberyard with a promising 2025. Great work fellas.

  • The games are made up and the points don’t matter

    100-4-100 The celebration of reaching 100 posts before the end of 2024. I started with F3 in May, Choo Choo shortly after and Beaver shortly after that. We all reached 100 posts about the same time. Props to Choo Choo and Beaver for starting up the lumberyard and reaching these numbers so fast. I wanted to do something special and stupid. Everything was 100 count or 100 yards. We even had an FNG. Special thanks to the guys who traveled an hour to be here. Several completed the list and added to it. Great job by all. What a way to finish 2024 and looking forward to an even better 2025. I want to shout of Big Rig for dragging me out on that Tuesday back in May to get me where I am today. I want to thank everyone for continuing to push me since then.

  • Pre CSAUP ruck

    Quick 2.5 mile ruck to warm up for the lumberyard CSAUP. The rain held off for a beautiful December morning ruck. Great mummble chatter with Choo Choo. We had a beautiful view of the morning light poking through the clouds and a Beaver running the football field.

  • We Almost Uncorked a Bottle of Merlot!!!

    It was a great Saturday gloom for 4 HIM’s in The Lumberyard! Choo Choo finally made it out after working downrange in WV this week, it was great to have him back.

    Rendition of a rendition of The Beast and The Alpha. The Omega! 8 reps x8 sets x8 rounds.

Included: Merkins, LBC’s, Squats, Shoulder Taps, Crunchy Frogs, Diamond Merkins. YHC cut it short for the next COP.

    Pool Boy and I almost splashed Merlot! But we kept the cork on it!

    COP 2

    A game I learned down in Newport News. Requires F3 Workout Card deck and Frisbees. Q establishes launch point to throw frisbees to concrete pad. Run to pick up your frisbee after throwing to bring it back. If you miss the concrete = 5 burpee penalty when you get back. All PAX after disc retrieval regardless of concrete or grass landing, flip over their own card from the deck to preform the workout. All workouts are 25 reps. All MOT is the soccer field and back. All 100 count cards are as is. The PAX pulled a world class move in joining me as YHC drew the Bear Crawl card at the end of the workout. Excellent support guys, I’m glad I didn’t have to do it alone, that’s one of the many perks of this group!

    Numbers and Names

    YHC closed us out in COT and prayer. Praying for the health of our HIM’s and family members.

    Last weekends sermon at church has been on my mind, and I want to share it here. It is up to us to choose to be joyful or not in our daily lives. Do everything you can with joy in your heart, even if it might not be a joyful experience.

    Merry Christmas to you and your families gentlemen! See you in the gloom.

    The ruck was cut short at 2.5 miles when an unrecognizable vehicle pulled into the lot. Our curiosity got the best of us, so we went to greet this 1 New Jersey down ranger and his EH’d soon to be brother in law.
    It was nice having these guys join us this morning, Bangkok mentioned the workout had an IPC difficulty level, we’ll take that as a complement all day!

    Had the pleasure of meeting Bangkok and his brother in law Joe on this frosty morning. Bangkok started a chapter of F3 in Jersey about 2 years ago. I can’t remember the whole story about Bangkok’s name but it has something to do with running marathons in Japan I could totally be wrong about that. I had my own reasons why I thought he might have had that name. Joe who does IT tech just relocated here in New Kent with his soon to be wife. Poolboy had his heart set on naming him Snooki but I just couldn’t do it to the poor man.

    Also found out today that Poolboy can farmer carry 2 Cindy’s over 200 yards without touching the ground. That’s after a brutal shoulder work out!

    Be grateful to feel this pain!!!
