ONE pax shot out of bed, formed a circle of one, and ran off into the early Pacific Gloom. Temperatures were 70 and sunny. According to the wet suit wearing wave riders, the following may have occurred: Route: Niguel Road west across Pacific Coast Highway. Left at the Beach Access Staircase. Down the access road to Salt Creek Beach. South the jetty. Two laps up and down the beach. Return up (it’s about a 15% grade, so literally up) the Access Road to the stairs, and reverse the route BTTVSF. Call it 5-6 miles. For efficiency purposes, number, name, and…

One PAX answered the bell and took on the challenge of a 15th and Dodge beatdown. Temperatures, at least for the moment, were 70 and sunny. According to the two ladies walking their dog downtown, the following quite possibly occurred. COP – Jog two blocks to the federal building, conveniently offering fully mirrored windows, thus giving the COP the feeling of a bar class. A circle of one did the following: SSHs, DQs, IWs, DMH, WWIIs. Run up/west on Capitol to the top of the hill (about 6 long blocks). When the road ends, turn around. Mosey back down the…

One PAX pulled on the red board shorts to hit the sand early and oil the post BRR joints. Conditions were 70 and sunny, sandy and slightly breezy. Terrain: flat (except a right/left tilt down to the water). Think Baywatch meets The Gloom. According to the solo walkers on the beach, the creepy dude in black did most of the following: Pre-COT: hide non-running shoes and socks in the dunes. COT: Roughly 20-30 reps per exercise. SSHsIWsSSHs (v 2.0)HillbilliesDead Man HangCalf stretchLBCsFKsWWIIs Mosey northbound from the hotel property to the next property. 7 condo buildings meaning 7 stops on the…
170 F3 and FIA PAX gathered for one of the coolest experiences YHC has ever had with F3. Not just because it was the 20th anniversary of the 9/11 terror attacks but because it was about 160 men +/- and 10 +/- women that got together to push their bodies as far and hard as they could. The workout had fairly simple instructions. Start at the bottom of the Lincoln Memorial and run to the top and back, do an exercise for the 6 and repeat The catch was you did the stair climb 26 times (wow) YHC’s legs where…
18 F3 Grand Stranders and YHC started off the new month running against the wind on the beach in to our backs in the streets. Time flies when you’re having fun happy hump day. This how it went down COP Mosey down 6th street do the oceanfront. Stop just before access to the bed for sets of merkins and LBC’s Indian run in two different lines from 6th street to 11th street Head back onto the road stopping at several street corners more sets of merkins, SSH’s, LBC’s. Between corners we would either bear crawl or crab walk up to…
10 gathered. 8 ran. 1 cooked. 1 rubbed his heal. Temps were sunny (for sure) and 70 (in all fairness, YHC didn’t check). According to the little fuzzy caterpillars all over the roads, this is what happened, more or less: Gather at Casa de Vinny & Co on Wendover. Run west and south, before returning north and east. Turn left, right, left, and left again. Find a lake. Circumnavigate that lake. Turn right and go to the railroad tracks. Do not cross the tracks. For that matter, never, ever cross Buford. Return up a big hill, take the trail to…
FNG’s out ranked the grizzly veterans this day 4 to 2 but No Worries YHC and DTH had the skills (provided by God and F3RVA) to make this work. COP (Disclaimer, Principles of F3 and some other jazz) DQ’s, Helicopters, Imperial Walkers, Russian Soldiers, Merkin, hello dollies and LBC’s Mosey to bottom of the hill, Light pole ally up hill Run to first light post 5 merkins, second light post 10 merkins, third 15 up to 30 Mosey walk further up hill where the slope gets a little more intense 11’s Bernie Sanders up the hill (kind of like the…

1 lone PAX (YHC) made an 1 hour 15 minute trip to Buckingham (Charlottesville Area) to make a GP appearance and just visit a new AO. COP: SSH’s, DQ’s, 3rd Graders (Cherry Pickers), Imperial Walkers and Merkins No mosey: 21’s PAX does SSH’s in cadence while Q counts to 6 and then stops. PAX is supposed to count in their head to 21 and stop. If not in sink PAX does predetermined exercise, PAX never did get in sink. Don’t remember all the exercises but there where many Burpees, Merkins and Ball Dippers Again No mosey: 6 minutes of Mary…
