The Non Convergence Experience

Seeing the Q slot open a few weeks earlier and realizing I was still in need of said AO Q slot for the “box checking”, I eagerly entered my name onto the Q-Sheet. As the days passed, I then realized that the day in question was good ole Thanksgiving. Reaching out to Site-Qs.. the decision was made to stay open giving the PAX another option. With that said – and after a brief EC and no FNG’s in sight, we started with The Pledge… and [Read More]

Without a doubt, that’s the phrase that comes to mind when I think of Dazed and Confused. However, the PAX were none of that - they came raring to go! We had some great mumblechatter in the parking lot beforehand in throughout and it was great to have a couple new and relatively new to F3 PAX. Here’s what went down; We started with the disclaimer, but also planted a seed for safety (to be revisited at COT). [Read More]

Day 28.

Posted on May 28, 2021 | 2 minutes | 228 words |

We Murphed. It was glorious. Almost exactly 1 mile run to a playground at Mama’s Boy’s neighborhood pool. There were tunes. Hello Kitty doesn’t much care for the Rolling Stones. Nobody argued with him. Joe Smith is STRONG at pull-ups. STRONG. By the way, Dazed & Confused is back at Apex High School. Try to park as far away as possible as not to upset teachers with assigned parking spots. And circle up off to the side so incoming teachers don’t run you over. [Read More]

"Vanilla" Cold as Ice Workout

Posted on December 4, 2020 | 2 minutes | 255 words |

When the Q sheet was empty for Point Break on Tuesday, I looked at the forecast for Wednesday morning at 5 am and saw that it was going to be a balmy 29 degrees. I was sold on the Q. But what to do at Point Break, so many options. My only option was to run, run and run some more to keep warm. So that is what we did. Pretty “vanilla” workout for Carpex standards. [Read More]

Small but stunningly strong set of swain swung into Scots Mill around six. A pair of NC State hoodies got out of their cars. Matching. Embarrassing. It’s 5:46, time to get going. SSH start. Frisco rolls up. Casually. SSHs continue. Frisco leisurely unfurls the flag. SSHs continue. The shovel is planted. SSHs continue. Shovel flag is assembled, with care. SSHs continue. Frisco joins the SSHs. SSH halt. Thang: Get a rock from the heavy rock pile. [Read More]

YHC celebrates Three Years with F3 today. I had to Q, and Tortoises - where I used to be site Q - was the perfect place for it. My pre-blast promised Threes, Burpees, Merkins, and Music. We accomplished that. Left Cheek and I pulled up at the same time. I hadn’t met him before, but I could tell immediately that he is a HIM. We talked for a few minutes, then I ECP-ed some pullups to get rid of energy before the rest of the PAX showed up. [Read More]

Hills not Circles

Saw the Q-sheet was open and wanted to do a BRR-style Q with the added bonus of trolling the FMJ PAX on Slack for predictably “running in circles” at the track. Much respect to those guys I wouldn’t be able to keep up. The POGL has some awesome hills and a little bit of elevation checking on topographical maps pointed to my two favorites. Hinton St and W Moore St (aka Cemetery Hill). [Read More]
