Backblast Big Mo @ the Vet 2/10/2020

Rolled into the Vet this morning about 5:15 with a truck full of goodies.  Mother Nature couldn’t make up her mind if she wanted to pour rain or just spit little bit of annoying drizzle.  I started to set up under one of the pavilions to be safe but then the rain stopped and weContinue reading "Backblast Big Mo @ the Vet 2/10/2020"

Back Blast – The Silo @ North Posh – 02/10/2020

My 2.0 decided to throw a party last night - two separate ones, with the first starting around midnight and the second around 4am.  Needless to say, when the alarm went off to roll out of bed this morning it was difficult.

Pre-Blast – The Silo @ North Posh – 02/10/2020

I have a love-hate relationship with Mondays. There are rarely times that I actually look forward to Monday - normally that's when it's a national summer holiday like Memorial Day or Labor Day.  Outside of the holidays, Monday means it's a work day - and, the beginning of a work week at that. But, youContinue reading "Pre-Blast – The Silo @ North Posh – 02/10/2020"

Back Blast – Wisteria @ Pleasantville – 02/07/2020

BackBlast – louisville lovin’ the hills (Abacus) 2/8/2020

Fair disclaimer that Lovin' the Hills (LLH) is not technically F3 b/c it's not free and it's open to women. Having said that, F3 Louisville was out in force! Nearly 15 men (maybe more I didn't see) were on the course getting better and spreading F3 virtues to the broader community. In many ways thisContinue reading "BackBlast – louisville lovin’ the hills (Abacus) 2/8/2020"
