It was a perfect fall like night in January.  We couldn’t have asked for better weather!  This was the first of hopefully many more movie nights. 17 Pax – Huggies (Q), Soggy Bottoms (FNG), Tool Time, Whitney (R), Flounder, Qbert (FNG 2.0), Wing Nut (2.0), Wiki, Fanny Pack (R), Gangplank, Domino, PK, Pork Chop, Usta,ContinueContinue reading “1917 Ruck 1-15-2020 Back blast and movie review.”

Better late than never… 13 PAX – Huggies (Q), Little Jerry (R), Dunphy, Milton, Meter Main, Viking, Jolly Rancher, Catfish, Nino, Carlton, Grandpa Bear, Double Down (R), Earhart (DR). It was a crisp morning.  Good for some ol fashioned burpees and running. One pax predicted a merlot spill and was indeed correct.  He managed toContinueContinue reading “Huggies Q The Silo @ North Posh 1-13-2020”

DANG was it cold this morning! It was 17deg with a light wind and a few snow flurries.  However, 9 men, including an FNG showed up at Vets to get better and move some weight. PAX: (10) Flounder, Backdraft, Meatball, Geppetto, Whitney (R), Sticky (FNG)(R), Diablo, Kilo, Worm, Plumb Bob (Q) It was important toContinueContinue reading “1/20/20 Big Mo Back Blast”

Will it be cold tomorrow? Certainly. Dress warm, and wear gloves. We will keep moving. Trust me. 45 minutes tomorrow at the County will make a man out of you.

I ain’t gonna lie…it was really cold this morning.  Temperature was 17 degrees when we convened at North Posh, with windchill at 7 degrees.  A light snow was beginning to fall.  Given the weather, I promised the PAX we would warm up quickly and keep moving throughout the workout.  I think there were grunts ofContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast Monday 01/20/2020 – North Posh Hub & Spoke with Coach Dauber”

It was cold this morning but 15 HIMs fought the fart sack and got out and got better. I signed up to Q at the Incubator before I realized I play basketball about every Sunday night and my legs are usually sore the next morning. I had originally planned on doing some running and sprintingContinueContinue reading “Backblast, Incubator @ South Posh, Pelican Q-1/20/20”

Notice:  Take one Viking Ship, add the hills at the Garden = no chance you will be cold After conquering the North (Posh), the Mutt, the O, Pleasantville, the County, and PeWee Valley Fire department, the “Viking ship” is on to conquor new land.  Many years ago Viking ships required work to row the shipContinueContinue reading “Pre Blast – 1/21 – The Cliffs @ The Garden”

The Long Run BlackOps fills a unique hole in F3Louisville, but it is like a well kept secret for some reason in spite of Mr. Hat and the crew continually beating the drum to get this thing firing on all cylinders.  The unique hole is that it begins at 0500 vs. the usual 0530. Yes,ContinueContinue reading “Back Blast – Long Run BlackOps – 01/20/2020”

Yeah, it will be a little cold tomorrow morning. But, we will move a lot at The O, and we will have some concrete blocks to keep us warm. Dress warm; wear some gloves; get out; get better. SYITG Diablo

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”

Tomorrow is a special day.  Yes, it is Martin Luther Day, and I mean no disrespect to Dr. King when I say it is also a very important day for another reason.  It is the 28 year anniversary of a very monumental day in the history of hip hop.  It was 28 years ago tomorrowContinueContinue reading “1/20 Big Mo Pre-Blast”

Last week my workouts seemed to be leg heavy and Sunday night is basketball night so tomorrow we will be focusing on our upper body. We will go hard to try to stay warm. If you have any lower body ailments South Posh is the place for you. SYITG Pelican

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”

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”

PAX(10): Retainer, Potter, Squid, Jitterbug(R), DoubleDown(R), Crotchety, NumberTwo(R), Mr.Kotter, SweetTart, Wapner Mid-forties, rain and wind. HIM witnessed first ever ‘Wapner Board of Pain’, inspired by Nino’s bop, aimed at a high intensity, high rep, continual strength workout. Proved to be challenging and definitely needs some tweaks. Mosey to overpass bridge (pavilion was occupied) did 30ContinueContinue reading “Back blast 1/18/2020 @ The Fog Wapner Q”

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.

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”

90% chance of rain. No running. Plan to stay dry or feel free to play in the rain, your choice just be there SYITG!

It’s always nice to get back out to The County. I was looking forward to Thursday all week and I was not disappointed. In all, we 19 PAX. Here is who came out: Scratch and Dent Rocky Red Card My Pleasure Holy Roller (R) Little Jerry (R) Double Down (R) Hush Puppy Ashley Peach EtoContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast – The Agony @ The County – 1.16.20”

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”

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”

Qing after a big ruck is always rough. I am hoping some folks will save some legs for Saturday. We’ll do some running and hopefully have some fun. No burpee’s. Promise. If you find F-bomb’s offensive this may not be the morning for you…

I was blown away with the double digits we had at LRP! Well done all you HIMs! Much respect for Mr. Hat and all the hard work he’s done to make this one helluva site. Let’s keep the momentum going. PAX – Methane, Pelican, Birdie, Bubblewrap, Uncle Sam (R), Squid, Mr. Hat, Bob Ross, BrownContinueContinue reading “Back blast Long Run Park BO, Friday 1/17/20 “MAX day””

As mentioned in my PB, today is my 1 year anniversary with F3. I have learned a lot about myself during that time. I have gained a new larger circle of friends since then. 7 Pax joined me for what I whimsically termed the loopty loop. Fungi, Abacus, Cratchett, Capt. Crunchberries, Brown Water, Gisele, Gilligan,ContinueContinue reading “BB 1/16 – BO PWVFD”

#RyleighStrong became a national F3 movement on Tuesday. I’m repeatedly in awe at this group and the impact we have when we come together. “More than a workout” was in full effect this week and the energy at The O was buzzing. In all, we had 27 PAX in attendance. Here is the list ofContinueContinue reading “Back-Blast – BoW at The O – 1.14.19”

Get out to Norton Commons in the morning. It might feel cold when we get started, but you’ll be shedding layers by the end. I’ve got a few new tricks up my sleeve. You won’t want to miss it. SYITG.

Backflop brining the lights and the pain to Long Run Park BO tomorrow. We will max our reps of many exercises and there will be minor running. Bring gloves if you got them. Let’s make it double digits with attendance. SYITG – Backflop Q

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”
