Never Trust the Forecast
The forecast was the 20s with lots of wind, so the HCs were few and far between. I was Q so knew I would be there. I woke up to a glorious morning, temps in the mid 30s and light wind. Cheech and Princess beat the fartsack and joined me. The rucked and I continued...

HIN BB 1.30.19
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qDJIyGVK_T8 No time for standing around talking. It was too cold. At 5:30am we left the bellers behind for a . . . ROLLING WARMARAMA @ The Patio - SSHs 15 IC @ Swaggart's Black Ice Rink - CPs 15 IC @ the eastside CCC parking lot -...
Celebrating Mom at the Boondocks
This was going to be a difficult day for YHC, as today marks 2 years of the hardest decision of my life. My dad, brother and I had to say goodbye to my Mom. I could not think of a better way to help take this off my mind than starting my day with my F3 brothers. It...
The Dread Not So bad Backblast…
What I like about the Dreadnought is it typically does not give you enough time in the moment to reflect about how tough it is....What i love about the Dreadnought is the immediate aftermath and the feeling you get when you know you have pushed yourself harder than...
Frosty QAR Backblast
Luckily I am still recovering from jet lag and was up early which gave me time to scrape my windshield off this morning. When I looked at the forecast before I did the Preblast, there was no mention of 31 degrees and frost.At least the no wind part was right and it...
My BB sucks compared to Ron Burgundy’s
The Q was excited to head to the green mile this morning because he got an HC from Boil. It is a special day when that happens! With 3 minutes until a hard start, the pax was still shuffling in, except for Boil. At 5:30 the mission statement and disclaimer were...
2 Years…Where has the time gone?
YHC changed the AO from the Big Rock cutting board to Shevans Park. It was there two years ago that I started my F3 journey. It was a time when the Table Setters and the Band of Brothers met together for a time of mingling and Warm-A-Rama. As you get older it’s the...
Not too frigid at the Fort (Benjamin that is…)
With Ricardo still fighting the cough due to cold, YHC agreed to the Q this morning. Seeing that Griswold and Ronnie B., both Knarr, regulars were themselves Q ing today I wasn't sure how many Pax would show today. Blart's HC last night gave me the assurance that at...
3 burpees at FOD
The weatherman lied about this morning. According to my thermometer, it was much colder than forecasted, 28 degrees when YHC left the house. But, that did not deter 7 brave pax, including Pasquale who we all thought had forgotten that the west existed. Arriving...
Brandywine Mile
The Brandywine mile consists of a 3 mile loop around the Brandywine housing development and golf course off of HWY 24 in MHC. The PAX and I would take off this morning with an extra challenge. Since we had PAX that wanted to be there but couldn't because of various...
SHIPLAP’s 24 hour ULTRA for Carteret Community Theater – Hurricane Florence Recovery
Tomorrow I will participate in the Tideland 24 ultramarathon race at the Cedar Point Recreation Area. 64 participants will run a 1.3 mile trail loop for up to 24 straight hours. The goal is to complete as many miles as one can during that time. You can quit whenever...
Trust in the Lord and keep your powder dry!
Twas the second day of the week and F3 Carterico was coming alive. The morning stars were shining brightly over the battlefield and the fart sack enemy had been defeated once again. A group of highly motivated, highly dedicated, and dang near suffocated pax would not...
A Bridge Mosey
19 men gathered to Sweet Beans on a beautiful Carterican morning. Temps were in the low 40s for perfect running conditions. The 5 mile route would be across the bridge to Island Grill and back. Road construction on the AB bridge allowed for clear lanes to run on. We...
You down with OPE?
YHC has been looking forward to his Swashbuckler VQ every since Holiday Mansion offered up the opportunity. I knew that only the studliest studs would show given the forecast and the pressure was on to deliver something that would at least approach a challenge for...
