A notorious nine launched from Dogpile at 0400 for a walking tour of Richmond. Conditions were 70 and sunny, perfect for a 10-mile CSAUP. From Dogpile we trekked north to The Diamond for our first pit stop. YHC attempted to demonstrate how to tie a bowline knot, but it was rope-master Machismo who educated the PAX. We headed south down Hermitage into the heart of the Fan and lost Big Rig somewhere in the neighborhood as his time with us was also planned to be medium and sweet. Eastbound down Monument/Franklin to Monroe Park for pitstop #2. Continue south to…

3 amigos from the Bermuda boys(Posh, Shaw-Shank and yours truly) decided to do a little rucking this morning(I needed something after the week I had). We took off from the lot, ventured behind the football field where there’s a trail with a bridge. The trail once it gets warmer will beat great spot for sprints and farmers carries cause it gradually goes uphill so the legs will get a nice burn. After that we were in a neighborhood that the homes were very nice(probably in that 400-700k range). Walking around the neighborhood, seeing a couple little dogs yelping early in…

  • The PAX: machismo, DTH, DD, Sable, NTB, Meatball, Broadway, DoubleMint

8 macho men took the trails of Machismo’s backyard for a multi-wooded ruck. We started heading through waterlogged fields, crossed a damn, over the hill, through the woods, but to Grandma’s we dare not go. No, there on the return, there was yet another log. This one weighing in at a speculative 800#s together we hoisted said burden to varied shoulders and marched near 300 yards. Maybe this log is better left in the woods. Prayer requests for DTHs acquaintance going through detox from Alchoholism. Dad’s family bearing the burden of his father’s death. Also add Machismos neighbor Kerri at…

9 Prodigal sons including 7 FNGs spent 2 mornings (8 Saturday, 4 Sunday) of their Men’s retreat prostrate and visiting darkened corners multiple times. The statement was made “To plant, grow, and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.” Our core values were shared: Free of Charge, Open to All Men, Outdoors (rain or shine), Guys lead in a rotating fashion, and ends in the circle of trust. A disclaimer was given if not believed. Warmerama: YHC led the pax through various renamed and demonstrated exercises including SSH, UKS, Copperhead Squats, Lunges (why doesn’t…

2 dudes in search met this morning in search of a few easy miles. What they found was 5.5 brisk miles and some invigorating conversation on life and leadership. There is no plateau , you are only accelerating or decelerating. Let’s get after it!

4 swift of feet joined YHC for some off the books elevation change on the best hills SOJ has to offer. Since we made it official with a COT, I should give the PAX their deserved data points. I don’t want Heist or Swoop to miss out since they are near the top of the leaderboard. YHC and Doozy rolled around Tarrington for a bit before Yeehaw, Swoop and Heist joined us for a trip to check on Gumbo’s old house followed by a venture up Twin Team. 5 miles, EHing some ruckers, and a coffeeteria (with another EH) we…

5 of RVA’s elite rucking crew threw on some weighted packs, grabbed some extra weight, and headed out for the morning. Route was Libbie Market, down the hills to the bat cave and to the Huguenot Bridge – cup o’ joe on the bridge, back up the hills. Tclaps to Heist for grabbing the extra 40# and not giving it up for the return up the hills. Good to see the large Sunday Funday crew at Libbie Market post ruck. More ruck options coming up – tomorrow am at The Forge, 0530 GTE 47 Training Ruck Sunday at 0600 -…
