WE READY

Posted on January 18, 2019 | 2 minutes | 372 words |

AO: Slippery When Wet QIC: Staubach It was an honor to do my VQ with this great group of men. I am very appreciative for F3 and all that is has done for me in my life. Thanks to @bluewater for getting me out there last June. Here is my VQ backblast: It was pretty nice, about 40 degrees and a little damp. My nerves were high as I headed out for my VQ. [Read More]

Powerlines

We began the workout bright and early with a strong showing of 25 HIM’s. The weather was cold and damp but none of us regretted leaving the cozy fartsack for a morning of hard work and fellowship. Warm-Up Sooey started us off with a light jog to the parking lot. SSH: 15, Good mornings: 10, Merkins:25, PlankJacks:15, Mtn Climbers:15, The Thang 1 Another short mozy down “Powerline hill”. 7’s Burpies at the top and Merkins at the bottom. [Read More]

12 HIM’s posted on a chilly January morning for what YHC announced would be a Murph. Well, it turned out kinda that way, with legendary mumblechatter. Joe Smith - you shoulda bought a Maytag. EC departed 0510 on schedule, route modified due to ice: YHC, Poolee, Wonderbread, Denali, Chanicleer, Joe Smith , Grease Monkey. Warm up: Good Mornings, Windmills, Michael Phelps (in consideration of the Murph to come) The Murph: [Read More]

I Thought Disney Was Warmer

Day 4 of #QSwapWeek had YHC and Yoga Mat repping the squad…..with no Carpex flag. Whoops… Lots of guys showed up for this one. We can recount them in the blurry picture to be sure. Warmup - Yoga kicked things off with a warmup that by the end felt more like a beatdown! Merkins and shoulder work. The Thang Run to the big giant parking lot one would typically only find in Orlando pulling up to the most magical place on earth. [Read More]

Blocks + Rain = Pain

After posting several times with our fine F3 brothers in Hickory, NC this fall, YHC came to appreciate the versatile, yet potentially lethal concrete masonry unit (CMU aka “cinder block”) in a workout. Call it an implement, a coupon, whatever you’d like…they’re 38 pounds of jagged edged concrete. After a quick run to Lowes’, where CMU’s can be found for under $2 a piece, YHC decided to create a morning around them. [Read More]

A Q-versary Murph

Posted on January 3, 2019 | 2 minutes | 356 words |

Last night during dinner I was explaining to my 2.0s what the workout for the next morning was going to be and why. As I read to them the heroic account of Micheal P Murphy and his ensuing death I became immediately convicted of why I called the Murph for a workout. While physically it is quite a challenge, my hope is as we endeavor to complete such a feat that we are taking a moment to remember the all the great men and women who risk their lives everyday in defense of the United States of America.

Let's Inflate a Blimp (learning to count)

Posted on December 7, 2018 | 2 minutes | 394 words |

Back in the F3 game after three weeks of work travel, holiday feasts and the not-so-occasional Fartsack, YHC and 13 other HIM’s rallied this Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day to inflate a Blimp. Or so we tried (there was a disclaimer that the Q, regardless of all attempts at mathematical education and related engineering training, often loses count). EC preceded the workout with Denali, Joe Smith and YHC for 3 miles around Symphony Lake on a fellowship pace (to avoid losing YHC, sluggish with a touch of a snotty nose…), with a much appreciated last-mile intercept by the ever-dependable Term Paper.
