Men, Two years ago today I showed up in the F3 Carpex Gloom at the invite of my fraternity brother, Jamie “Repeato” Roseborough. I had been back in North Carolina for about eight months and things were going well. I was getting in workouts about three days a week in the gym and crushing a strong 2-3 mile solo run on the weekend. Things were fine, right? Wrong. Something was still missing, and as they say, you now know the rest of the story. [Read More]

SWW remains one of my favorite AO’s and with the stash of CMU’s (Cinder Blocks) acquired by Bayonne….it’s even more versatile! I try to keep most of my workouts to fairly high-tempo, constant movement type stuff, and I also try to ensure we hit at least one lesser-used muscle group. Today was no different and the targeted lesser muscles were the back and hamstrings. 25 HIM’s showed up to see what was in store, and I’m not one to disappoint! [Read More]

Perfect morning at FWD! Site I don’t get to a whole lot – great to get together with some fine high-impact men. 14 HIMs gathered – No FNGs, only familiar faces. F3 intro given & we started with the pledge. Moseyed around the parking lot & painted some lines. With all that running out of the way, we rolled into: The Warm Up Circle up for SSH, good mornings, windmills, imperial walkers, hill billies, calf stretch merkins, etc. [Read More]

Rain threatened, but we did not care. 23 HIMs strode into the gloom to do battle with ourselves and be AWESOME! There were no FNGs. The mission, disclaimer, and pledge were recited. We moseyed to the green way parking lot for warm-ups. Warm-ups Side Straddle Hops Good Mornings Cotton Pickers (my hammies were really tight) Sir Fazio Arm Circles Merkins Calf Stretches Thang One We ran through the darkness of the green way heading for the bridge.

In one of the top 5 darkest AOs in Carpex, 11 HIM strode into the gloom to the sultry sounds of Brown Sugar and Many Dirty Deeds were Done Dirt Cheap.

Side Straddle Hop Good Morning Imperial Walkers Sir Fazio Arm Circles Merkins Calf Stretch Thang One Leaving the parking lot, we ran toward the pedestrian bridge and stopped at the crossing so the Q could catch up.

Date: 4/2/19 QIC: WWW AO: FWD PAX: Kitty Litter, Lite Brite, Oofta, Smokey, Titanic, WWW, Yoga Mat My quest to Q once a week is still going strong. I drove the FWD proper yesterday, after work, to recon the AO. What’s deceiving is when you are driving in your car, you do not realize that FWD is in a valley; therefore, to get out of it, there is an incline no matter which direction you chose and venture off to.

After some debate on which parking lot we should circle up in we stuck with the standard operating procedure for SWW.
