We have been running Currahee for a year now. Special thanks to…

Ten Titans beat the allures of the comfy bed to meet in the gloom for a 4.5 brocode run in prep for the beach bodies competition. The route was north on Pump and back on JRP. YHC took us out. Prayers for Clint and Christine. NMS – Next week is the official anniversary of this AO. Its been fun seeing it grow and great to have some new brothers out. Welcome Homer and Offshore. YHC likes Brocode because it gives folks (most folks anyway) a chance to chat, at the expense of a fitness bending workout. Somehow Ziggy still rated…

7 fearless studs emerged from the gloom to shake off last nights beer induced cloud and attack the day on a crisp cool morning. 5ers – West on Ridgefield to Pine Run, traverse through Gayton ES, East on Church to Pump and return 4ers  – West Ridgefield to Copperas to church, or whatever feels good.  Probation took us out. Prayers for EF Hutton as he recovers. NMS – great morning and maybe the last cool morning for Currahee. Some of the PAX caught an object breaking up in the atmosphere. We think it was part of the spaceX launch. What…

A lucky Seven men joined up in the gloom on a dry 4C day for two routes today: 4 milers. run through and around DRP. 4.4 miles 5ish milers. Route below including Gaskins and the hill on Three Chopt returning through Cross Keys and Dover Hunt to Raintree – planned at 5.5, this route was 6 on the garmin. Pinto took us out. NMS – YHC has wanted to run this route for some time as it has good warmups, a solid hill push, and some hills to top it all off. This was a little longer than targeted, but…

Four warriors beat the warmth of the fartsack to go on a little run in perfect temperatures. Two routes today 4 and 5 mile. Pump to Three Chopt and back. YHC took us out. Prayers for healing. NMS – Not much to report today. Pinto recommends “Cant hurt me” by David Goggins. Intestinal fortitude is for winners. Currahee!

Four men escaped the clutches of the ravenous counteroffer and stepped fearlessly into the gloom on a cool day. Not all were so lucky… or were they? Route was the “regular” route: Raintree, Falconbridge, around DRP, north on Cox to Brookmont, around Crowncrest to Pump and return. 5.5 miles as depicted below. Some ran in other directions. Pinto took us out. NMS – some discussion about impact of covid and recent issues on our lives and those around us. We were glad to welcome Johnsonville to his first Currahee! For Christians, this is an important day of remembrance that in…

Three stallions emerged in the gloom to enjoy some moist air and Wet Asphalt Pavement. The route card shows 5 miles and since we were feeling good, the PAX did not disappoint – pushing to 5.9 total with a bonus trip around the Wellesley lake. YHC took us out. NMS – we are thankful when we for muffin melting weather. Given the steady win and gusts, it was difficult to hear mumble chatter. Most of the run featured the rhythmic slap slap slap sound of running shoes landing on wet pavement, punctuated by the occasional gutteral surprise upon footfalls landing…

I love the smell of mulch in the morning… Three thoroughbreds broke through a bona-fide gloom for a journey into the back nine of West Broad Village retail. One mile out, four triple checks = one mile, one mile back. 3 miles total. Golf Galaxy TC1 – dips & LBC; REI TC2 – chicken peckers & mountain climbers; Home Goods TC3 – Jump Squats & Vee Up; Diamonds Direct TC 4 – Merkins & APD. Pinto took us out. NMS – good discussion of the economy and university impacts. WBV has a metric ton of mulch in a pile and…

Getting back at it for a weekly running after taking off a few months is never fun… but when you are meeting up with your crew it makes it at least tolerable. Accountability to meet someone else at 530 AM is a driving force for many of us to get out of bed in the morning. (unless its below 42 and raining then you are just crazy). ACCOUNTABILITY (Q2.5) – F3 NationRunning AOs can be more difficult to plan than the standard bootcamp. Trying to find a route that will allow for all to push themselves but at the same…

Five fearless warriors look through the gloom and eschewed the fart sack to join together for a run. 5mi route – Pump, Church to Gayton Elementary, through Pine Run and return on Ridgefield. Prayers for Pinto’s M as her family works through the death of her father. NMS. Not much to report today, we were all focused on getting our fitness to a rudimentary improved state in time for beach week. YHC does not mind the cold but we are all ready for the spring warm up. It is nice to have Light in the sky as we finish our…
