Pax, There will be a 60 minute July 4th convergence at Tredegar/Brown’s Island/Belle Isle on Wednesday, July 4th at 7am. It will be very similar to the Memorial Day beatdown, but there are a lot of untapped resources around that AO where we can try new things out. YHC will start us off and then it will be Hot Potato, so think of something different to do from Memorial Day if you get called upon. This also gives those Pax members that could not make the Memorial Day beatdown a chance to post at this great AO. This will be…

The 3rd Anniversary Convergence was a double-dip extravaganza to celebrate three years of F3RVA. Thirty-nine (39) of the faithful gathered in the darkness at 0600 at GridIron, and forty-three (43) of the faithful, plus seven (7) FNGs — fifty (50) in all — gathered at 0700. By my number-cruncing, it added up to 60 different people posting at one or both workouts, with 10 posting early and not late, 21 posting late and not early, and the balance double-dipping. It was a perfect early autumn morning, and the grass, sand, and pavement were bathed in chilly morning dew, which we…
