PreBlast: 1/20/20 – Black Ops @ The O

Normally, conflicting schedules with the M keep me from posting to the Monday Black Ops @ The O. She and the 2.0 skipped town for the night leaving me the chance to get back out on a Monday. When I saw that a Q was still needed for tomorrow @ The O, I volunteered myContinueContinue reading “PreBlast: 1/20/20 – Black Ops @ The O”

Pre-Blast Monday 01/20/2020 – North Posh Hub & Spoke

Am I licking my wounds from the loss Naperville dropped on us last week?  Yep. Am I pumped up by the awesome numbers posted throughout F3 Louisville though?  You bet. Do I now have an unhealthy dislike for the Greater Chicago-land area? Nah…just respect. Let’s keep the great momentum going from last week and post big numbersContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast Monday 01/20/2020 – North Posh Hub & Spoke”

Pre-Blast : Long Run BlackOps @ 0500 : 01/20/2020

Looking forward to joining the men of the Long Run BlackOps tomorrow morning. Yes, it is going to be cold. Yes, it starts a little earlier than other WOs scheduled on Monday. But, that means you can enjoy that much more coffee afterwards before you go to work. Or, a few extra minutes in theContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast : Long Run BlackOps @ 0500 : 01/20/2020”

Backblast Mumbleruck @ Broadrun Park 1/19/20

Pax Whitney, MeterMaid, Dauber, Tool Time, Porkchop, Snowman, Flounder (Q), and eventually… Worm 4:56 came and went as 7 pax waited on our directionally challenged friend Worm. We stood in 28 degree 15 mph wind wondering if he’d ever show. We sent locator pins, called, shot flares and sent a rescue helicopter. As frost biteContinueContinue reading “Backblast Mumbleruck @ Broadrun Park 1/19/20”

Gonna be a fun ruck tomorrow. Went out and scouted a few routs today. This park has a lot to offer and we will utilize quite a few different trails. Estimating 6-8 miles. The last leg will be near SP so if time gets close we can cut it short.

Back Blast – 1/18 @ The County: Jewel Q

As I said in the PB (which I know most don’t read- not that BB’s are read more frequently) that the County was a special place. It’s special because of the HIMs that call it home. A place that took a random 2nd post guy and treated him like a brother immediately. I appreciate allContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – 1/18 @ The County: Jewel Q”

1/18/20- Pre-Blast Birthday-ish Q @ the County

My first post ever was the now infamous Yoga WOat the Garden. I’d heard so much about how hard the workouts were, I had to give it another go. I showed up at the County for my next post without knowing a soul. They welcomed me with open arms. This is a special AO. I’mContinueContinue reading “1/18/20- Pre-Blast Birthday-ish Q @ the County”

1/17 Backblast Black Ops at Mary T #AOoftheYear

Since my wrist is still on the mend, I advised the PAX via Preblast that this w/o would be run heavy. Digiorno showed up with coupons, kettlebells, and a face of disappointment when he learned how much running we had in store. Conditions – brisk 26 degrees PAX: Plumb Bob, Digiorno, Dauber, Fridge, Deuce, Wham,ContinueContinue reading “1/17 Backblast Black Ops at Mary T #AOoftheYear”

Back-Blast – BoW at The O – 1.14.19

#RyleighStrong became a national F3 movement on Tuesday.

In all, we had 27 PAX in attendance. Here is the list ofContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast – BoW at The O – 1.14.19”

Back Blast – #250 at Cloverfield – 01/16/2020

It snuck up on me, but yesterday at The Foundry [according to the Weasel Shaker] was my 250th post at F3.  So, today was a bit of a personal celebration of that milestone. I remember it like it was yesterday when PK and I met up for dinner to catch-up and he was talking toContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – #250 at Cloverfield – 01/16/2020”

Pre-Blast – The Agony at The County – 1.16.20

Pre-Blast – Cloverfield – 01/16/2020 – Jolly’s VQ at the Garden!

Flounder went crazy on me yesterday and sent a pre-blast for Cloverfield and THEN checked the calendar to see if it was open.  Too late, Flounder, because Jolly’s got this one on lockdown – including a celebration of post #250-ish! So, I encourage you to come on out to The Garden on Thursday and seeContinueContinue reading “Pre-Blast – Cloverfield – 01/16/2020 – Jolly’s VQ at the Garden!”

Back-Blast Wednesday 01/15/2020 – Foundry Roulette with Fructose & Dauber @ The County

For The Foundry workout this morning we set out to give the PAX a full body workout that was both challenging and variable. With that goal in mind, Fructose and I put in several months of planning over the last three days and came up with the Foundry Roulette concept.

1/16 PB – 1 year Post-iversary. BO PWVFD.

Hard to believe it has been a year since Fungi (Airplane and Valdez) finally HL me into coming out. I remember it like it was yesterday.
