First, HoneyDo, thanks for organizing this past weekend, YHC knows that organizing a group of F3RVA guys can be a challenge in and of itself; and then adding other folks from F3 can add another layer of complexity that is not known to most. HoneyDo, thank you! To everyone that participated this weekend and in the GORuck event itself, thanks for extending yourselves and being examples of servant leadership and hospitality for F3RVA. This morning, after the work, SAAB shared some news about a neighbor of his that YHC knew. YHC was shocked and saddened to hear the news that he had passed away this…

43 PAX from across the F3 Nation came out to Dogwood Dell on Saturday night to find out the answer to the question on everyone’s mind: Would we be getting in the James River? Turns out the answer was no but we did the following: Muster Up in Amphitheater for admin stuff: Roll call, Ruck inspection (apparently TYA’s unabridged version of War & Peace is 30 lbs) and assign team leader of Cowbell. Move over to field next to dogpark and form squads. Mess up #1 rewarded us with 113 Ruck Squats. Some more warm up, secure coupons, and other…

The PAX: Marmaduke, Wilson, Nancy Lopez, Don Draper, Danny Kaye, Tobit, Doozy, Orange Crush, Bullseye, Döner Kebab, Radar, Posh, Honeymoon, Recall, Viral, Rosie

16 of RVA’s best men skipped an extra hour of the fartsack to show up at NoToll to get better. Dr. Tryhard has been stricken with the plague and unfortunately could not fill his Q slot for today but that was just fine since there are plenty of men to step in and fill the void. YHC took the lead to start and after a short mosey to the parking lot, informed the PAX of the intent to Hot Potato. Warm-up with some SSH, IW, Peter Parker, Mountain Climbers, Alternating Shoulder Taps and LBC. Quick 4 corners in the parking…

16 able-bodied men posted for some miles (15 remained so). Instructions were given, street name pronunciations were corrected and damnit, YHC still can’t find the correct exit off the trail onto the road. In any event, it was Sunny and 70, perfect conditions for some miles and some fellowship. The routes were as follows: 6 Milers – head up by the baseball field and past the Robbins Center and jump onto Bandy Rd to Three Chopt. Take Three Chopt to Patterson. Patterson to WestHAM Pkwy. Left on WestHAM Pkwy and follow that all the way across River Rd (cross either…

4 strong showed up for a gusty Heartbreak Ridge adventure this morning. Hot Potato Q went like this: Fireman Ed — Warmup lap on the track followed by SSH x15 & DQ x 10 to get moving.

4th F Feature

By No Idea on March 25, 2019

When: 03/25/19
QIC: No Idea
The PAX: Mudface, Rounders, No Idea

3 men shucked the fart sack and donned the ruck sack on a beautiful 55 degree morning. Rounders joined YHC and Mudface, and set a very brisk pace with a very heavy (55 pound) pack. While getting in 3 miles, much was discussed, including what irritates us and what amuses us, interrupted by a lot of vigorous 4th F announcements—a LOT. We felt sorry for the runners going in the opposite direction. As usual, I have No Idea what I’m doing.

No Q; No Problem – Roller Coaster is always ready…

QIC: Gumbo
The PAX: Bullseye, Doozy, LugNut, Orange Crush, Rosie, Swiper, Gumbo

7 men enjoyed perfect conditions this morning for some miles. 6 River Run regulars and a Swiper sighting. No Q on the sheet – no problem, but when the decision was left to YHC the call was easy (if unpopular)…River Downs Roller Coaster – to YHC’s house and back with a couple of gut-punch hills in between. Rosie and Swiper cleared the path for the rest of the PAX – someone had to keep Swiper on the route and Rosie dutifully stepped up to the task. YHC, Doozy and Orange Crush took turns pushing and pulling each other — much…
