Credo
VG graciously joined me on a 2-mile ‘shake out’ run to get limber before the beatdown. YHC advertised this week’s Flatline as “Root Canal Friendly” in order to entice my friend out into the gloom, and he obliged. In...

Glad we didn’t have to work out in a tornado this morning #thirdcoreprinciple. (I hope everyone’s homes & property are ok!) 8 pax ignored the forecast, showed up, and showed out this morning at the Greenbrier Farms Clubby. There...
Read moreHow do you get a beach body? You take your body to the beach.
YHC has been pining for Spring Break for some time now…the colder temps and the monotony of early sunsets doesn’t affect me the same way or to the magnitude that it does others, but I have been dreaming of sunnier evenings in the...
Read moreParliament was Jumpin’
Cold mornings at Parliament require constant movement, but the AO moratorium on running means Burns is bringing the ropes. This was the third or fourth time leading some version of this workout at Parliament and it does the job pretty well. WoR...

The route (insert down arrow emoji here) https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/6400523254/ The hill was tough going up but fun coming down. The gunnin: SSH, Lunges, Merkins, Alt Shoulder Taps, and American Hammers. 30 sec on, 12 sec off. We did...

YHC has been out for a hot minute and was glad to get back into things this morning. Last week I was battling a strong case of the “want-tos” along with general stomach discomfort that manifested itself over the weekend as a full...

Cold again. Ho hum. Didn’t stop a bunch of studs from shunning the fartsack and getting better today. What a bunch of HIM. Rubber Ducky let me talk him into the EC run, and Schlitz joined us. 2 miles for a warm-up is sure helpful when the...

YHC has now put on this workout on the Thursday closest to my F3 birthday for 7 years (1/12/18 was my official start date). Read to the bottom for a summative evaluation of this workout, including past BBs and PAX totals! It’s f*ckin cold...
Read moreF3WS Royalty Returns, and a Upper Body Beatdown at TRQ
Green Acres gave me the EH to Q last week via Slack, and Green Acres is the kinda guy you can’t say no to. So nice and mild mannered but could easily separate your head from your shoulders. If I had a daughter I would hire Green Acres to be...

Who keeps letting this guy come back? WoR – mobile to get warmer faster. SSH, Whirlies, Imperial Walkers, Toy Soldiers, and Michael Phelps all x12 ic. We made our way from launch up to the courtyard in front of the med school, and found a...

YHC proclaimed that the EC run would start at 0500 on the dot, and rolled in the parking lot at 0502 to find a couple of loiterers. Thankfully they didn’t leave me behind, but they’re bad at following directions. The run was excellent...
Read moreThe Simplest Conspiracies are the Easiest to Believe
A bit of a subdued mood this morning – lots of late nights all around, except for Lamb Chop who seemingly was blissfully unaware of any elections results. Not sure how he pulled it off, but we filled him in. YHC wanted to ensure a good...
