For the past two weeks several PAX, including myself, have been putting themselves through the F3 IronPAX Challenge that is being put on by F3 Greenwood. I was excited about the opportunity to compete against other Pax across other regions, and also test myself through some difficult challenges. However, I did not expect for theseContinueContinue reading “Crucible Back Blast – Week 3 IronPAX Challenge”

Uncle Rico 1 YR Q @ North Posh Back Blast

BackBlast #theFOG BlackOps Q School at #theCounty Abacus Q 8/18/18
Last December Dark Helmet graced F3 Louisville with his presence and pontificated wildly about the proper way to Q a workout, the leadership roles of F3 and life. Since then, our PAX has grown significantly. In fact #thecounty was not even on the radar last December and now the site is drawing 20+ HIMs everyContinueContinue reading “BackBlast #theFOG BlackOps Q School at #theCounty Abacus Q 8/18/18”

IronPAX Week 1 Challenge at the Crucible – Back Blast – 8.7.18
Yesterday began the 2018 August IronPAX Challenge. This has been in anticipation for several PAX members over the last few weeks as we have waited for this to arrive.

Crucible Pre-Blast – IronPAX Challenge Launch – 8.7.18

The Silo Back Blast – 7.30.18
After a long day on the lake yesterday, I woke up this morning feeling quite sore.

Uncle Rico @TheCounty Pre-Blast
I have heard the County has been pushing the 20’s every morning. What better way to start off the morning than a little eleven vs eleven football with yours truly as the Q. Be ready to throw the football over those mountains.

Inaugural Crucible Backblast – 7.17.18

Drumroll please…. I made an FNG spill today
My brother (Drumroll- FNG) gave me two awesome gifts for my 40th. A surprise trip to Tampa for some horrible fishing and great beer, and his first post to an F3 workout. I am not sure which meant more. Ryan has supported me through this year, always listening to my stories about F3, andContinueContinue reading “Drumroll please…. I made an FNG spill today”
BackBlast #theFOG Abacus Q 6/23/18 @poshlands
Fear slows me down from time to time. Driving home from today’s post I saw a small bird attacking a large predator bird. Do birds experience fear? I have no idea. I know that small bird was running the big bird and having a good go of it. The small bird appeared to be actingContinueContinue reading “BackBlast #theFOG Abacus Q 6/23/18 @poshlands”
