A lively and plucky bunch, most of whom were looking for some relief of the humidity by way of a bicycle, showed up at Mary Munford’s Elementary School on Friday. It’s been really, really hot lately…like, the kind of heat that when you walk outside you just get mad. It’s August, so it’s really no one’s fault that it is so hot, but when someone recommended an Amateur RAMM Gears, it seemed to make sense to a good amount of people. YHC originally signed up to lead the PAX on a jog around the near west end…maybe a new route…
“We may look different on the outside, but under the hood we all have huge reservoirs of potential and a governor impeding us from reaching our maximum velocity… Impulse is driven by your mind’s desire for comfort, and it’s not telling you the truth. It’s your identity trying to find sanctuary, not helping you grow. It’s looking for status quo, not reaching for greatness or seeking wholeness”. -David Goggins 7 PAX convened on the grounds of Timberwolf for some boot camp action. According the the sanitation expert we are still trying EH, the beat down went something like this. COP…
Veteran 2.0’s dragged their Dad’s from cozy fartsacks for a day in the park. Here’s how the animals got covered in fresh cut grass: The THANG: COP #1: Oreo pointed South, and the PAX moseyed to a grassy spot to warm up with a few standard IC reps Each 2.0 assisted by adding in some creative ideas, Somersaults being the most odd COP #2: Disclaimer was provided each Dad would take a lead with the Potato, and Snuff was first to lay hands gently on the tepid earth fruitTriple Check: LBC’s, Planks, and Run COP #3: Snuff called a mosey to…

It’s that time, fellas. It’s time to show that we have the metal to match words with actions. Who will help carry the load? This message is about asking for your help to make a real-life Impact – both in time and effort – on behalf of a group of people who F3RVA has sponsored for the last ~5 years. Most of you are aware that F3RVA helps by feeding residents in the Medical Respite facility at the Southside Health Center. This is on the Q sign-up sheet as, “Breaking Bread.” F3RVA chose to expand in 2020 to help out TWO nights…
Two stalwarts held down the fort to get in a nice 6mile run this morning. It was nice sweltering morning in the gloom, starting out at 78 deg and 95% humidity, and we got it done. NMS – whats great about Lighthouse is that he is up for anything. He has come a long way since he started running for real last year. As we started out, our five mile route turned into a solid six and this is a great route with challenges at the right time. While someone needs to hold down the fort, we missed the summer…
