PreBlast The Extender @ The Mutt Digiorno Q #F3Counts

Sump Pump was right, temps around 60 all week. I wonder what his prediction is for my Q tomorrow…Plain Cheese or The Works? Get out of the fartsack and go somewhere to support your F3 brothers.

11-16-19 The Hurt at The Mutt Backblast

Sump Pump sent out a slack message saying he was injured and needed someone to take his place for his Q.  I don’t get a chance to make it out very often on Saturdays so I decided to be the next man up.  I wanted to keep moving to stay warm, have some fun butContinueContinue reading “11-16-19 The Hurt at The Mutt Backblast”

Preblast 11-16 The Hurt at The Mutt

Next man up!  That’s what we say when the starter is injured.  That’s sorta the way it’s been for my beloved Boilermakers since we’re currently on our walk-on 4th string QB, but I digress.  When Sump Pump messaged a few of us saying that he was on the DL and he needed a back upContinueContinue reading “Preblast 11-16 The Hurt at The Mutt”

St. John Center for Homeless Men Merkin Challenge

Calling all PAX and AO’s for a wonderful 3rdF opportunity.  I met with St. John Center recently and with the winter coming they are in need of white crew socks for their members.   St. John Center for Homeless Men is a great local non-profit that helps homeless men address the barriers to housing andContinueContinue reading “St. John Center for Homeless Men Merkin Challenge”

BB – The Hurt – 10.19.2019

PAX (3): Soft Top, No Show, Deuce (Q) Weather: a little chilly, but for mid-October it was pretty nice out there.

When the Rooster call, what do you do? Back Blast – 10.15.19

The Rooster is one of the most unique names for a workout, but I love the premise (or what I assume to be the premise). We don’t get up for easy, and the rooster is typically seen as a wake up call for many, but for others we are often up before the rooster is,ContinueContinue reading “When the Rooster call, what do you do?

PB 10/17/19 Sump Pump Q – The Extender at The Mutt

For those still reading, bring your gloves, running shoes and maybeContinueContinue reading “PB 10/17/19 Sump Pump Q – The Extender at The Mutt”

McAfee is bringing the meaning of The Rooster – Pre-Blast 10.15.19

In the Chinese Zodiac, the Rooster signifies honestly and fortitude, both physically and morally. The rooster animal totem is also thought of to be very bossy, but not in a bad way. Tomorrow at the Rooster, I plan to bring something to test your physical fortitude, and you can decide who to let be theContinueContinue reading “McAfee is bringing the meaning of The Rooster – Pre-Blast 10.15.19”

PAX (5): Pepperoni, Glen Ross, PED, Wham!, Deuce This was a group effort to lead.  We ran all through the neighborhood, stopping at various locations (6-7 stops) where each PAX would call out an exercise and the amount of reps.  We did just about everything we could think.  It was perfect weather and a lotContinueContinue reading “BB – B.O. at The Mutt – 10/11/2019”
