YHC took us out in prayer thanking God for our health and the strength and desire to improve our health.
Moleskin. As YHC spent two of the three Holiday weekend evenings as grillmaster and overindulging, YHC planned a run heavy beatdown to cleanse YHC system to begin the week. It was great to have yet another record PAX for DaVille. Welcome to all FNGs that posted this morning. Phonics has been EHing some of todays FNGs for a couple of weeks. Keep posting to improve yourself and the other members of the PAX. YHC did not hear much mumblechatter this morning, probably because YHC was sucking wind most of the workout. Abacus has been talking to YHC about the hill at the end of service road behind the football field since the first DaVille beatdown. YHC put it in todays plans and we had just enough time to traverse the steep incline during Jacobs Ladder. AS we arrived at the bottom of the hill, YHC asked DDAY (he ran track at Atlee) if their was a name for this hill. He responded NO, so YHC initially dubbed the obstacle DaVille Hill. Upon return to the shovel flag, Abacus suggested an appropriate name for the hill would be MC Hill. Reasoning for the name comes from Meg Menzies (maiden name Cross), who was an avid runner in the Hanover/Richmond running community. Unfortunately, Meg was taken from her family and community in a tragic accident a few years ago. As the first F of F3 is Fitness, it felt appropriate to honor Meg with a steep hill that was used this morning to increase the fitness levels of the men of F3 RVA.
DDAY (amateur movie producer) was filming this morning’s workout. As YHC is alerted to its publication on social media, YHC will post.

Way to work this morning gents. As always, it was a pleasure and honor to lead the men of F3 RVA.
6 FNGs!! The cot must have taken 45 minutes alone. That’s the most I have seen for a AO. Nice work Circle K. Hey thanks again for shovel flag I will get some good beer for you and Lab Rat!!!
COT’s at DaVille have been interesting to say the least the last couple weeks! So glad to have the massive in flux of participants to F3, and well done to Circle K for keeping it all together this morning with the variety of fitness levels that posted….not an easy task. I am looking forward to see what this new Pax is going to morph into over the summer.
Loved the MC Hill Jacob’s ladder portion this morning.
MC Hill – what a honor to run on that hill that has now been so rightfully named. We now need to make a placard and a shoe memorial to cement the name.
Just think the last 3 workouts under Da’Ville we have seen a total of 17 FNGs named. KaBOOM!!!
6 FNG’s – freaken DaVille is killing it – well done !!!!
I’m wondering if Lab Rat, Abacus or Circle K got a motion passed at the city council meeting that requires all Mechanicsville men to get out of the fartsack and head to Daville. That FNG count is as strong as new rope. Well done, boys!
