Today’s Saturday journey took me to Batesburg-Leesville and to the men of Smokehouse. When I think of B-L the first thing that comes to my mind is it’s high school football team. When I played HS football at Columbia High School in the mid 80’s we had a game against B-L high. They had a …

4 PAX posted this morning to a gloomy #BATTLE. YHC was on the original schedule but with the P200 looming in less than 14 days, our team was doing a team run. YHC picked a very worthy candidate to fill in but he forgot he was going to see a wonderful lady named Anesthesia the …
YHC is participating in Chyna’s Brotastic Lent Challenge which require a certain number of reps, burpees and planks each day. This led to the idea for the Modified Mountain. Conditions: 50 and wet. Started raining on us during warmup but stopped as we began workout. The Thang: 9 PAX started with a mosey to the …
Weather – clear, high 40’s YHC was excited to have his second Q at stride. The PAX turned out and we had a good showing starting with 10 PAX and ending with 12 PAX. The YHC is finding out that he is getting a little older and that seeing up close is getting to be …
25 Pax posted at Urban Legend this morning to help YHC and some others celebrate 5 years in the F3Nation Gloom.

Weather – mid 40’s. Pretty awesome for some futbol. As of now, you know how we Clash PAX do our backblast. Because it would be just way to hard to do a complete breakdown of the game, we do highlights. Well today, we only bring you one. And it is not that there was not …
Quisenberry summed it up perfectly when he said that Team Canseco winning 8-7 over Team Booster when YHC was Qing was like an underdog going on the road and winning one when they probably shouldn’t. Standings after 6 workouts: Team Booster leads Team Canseco 3-2-1. Still a lot of season left. Anyhow- now to business- …

10 pax defied the #fartsack to come get better with Iron Mary as QIC. As the pax circled up to wait for the beatdown to begin, they learned that Iron Mary was sick and that YHC would be leading the workout. YHC spent some time last night planning a workout to make an attempt to …

Thanks to the Men of Depot to fight the fartsack and posting for betterment. Disclaimer/COP The Pax of Depot were patiently waiting …
Yes it was a bit cool this morning. But we have seen worse. Not sure why our numbers shrink when YHC has the Q. Could be I am not that good at this Q thing, or I might need to change brands of mouthwash. Okay guys, no hurt feelings, I will keep coming back and …
4 pax beat the fartsack and freezing cold to post at the Snakepit this morning gloom. Despite seeing the mounds of sand around the AO, YHC help back from using them in the WO. Hard work was done this morning. Hope YHC was able to keep the pax warm. Always enjoy seeing the Snakepit pax. …
Testimonial and Wall of Text Incoming. You have been warned! This week marks YHC’s 4th year as an F3 Brother. Listening to Long Haul and Cheech was one of the best decisions YHC has ever made. (Gonna drop the F3 Lexicon for this next part — Cobains) I have never felt physically fit in any …

So as I am the only pax that is still going with the #noburpees2019 theme @Smokehouse, I had to think of something else that I loved just as much as burpees, yep those who know me know i just love Running. The goal was to push over 2 miles but since i forgot to start …
YHC is limited to where he can post due to his work schedule but The Stand is on the way to work and YHC loves to come visit the #HIMS there!!! Need to make it a more regular thing!!! YHC had a good weinke planned but the weather screwed the pooch on that one so …
YHC saw a WOD yesterday and did the only thing that can be done. Modified it and brought it for the Pax to try out. It seemed that all the Pax are ready to go to Vegas. Weather: Why is it cold? It’s March! Around 30 with frost on the ground Disclaimer/Prayer The Thang: Mosey …
Well another AO gets a taste of the beers on the wall routine. Like my past couple of Qs, I mixed this in with Mary. Since it was really cold, it was kinda good to not do cardio and suck in a lot of cold air. We had 8 PAX today. Conditions: cold, I mean real cold, but …

Posted for Meter: Conditions: cold and wet After a brief warmup under the breezeway, we found ourselves on the way to celebrate Pancake Day at Waffle House when Chimichanga rolled up five minutes late. Juice said something about accountability while Pdubs flashed his headlights from his warmed up F150. We somewhat hesitantly welcomed our new …
11 PAX posted this morning in the gloom in search of some #betterment. Wanted to get some good 1st and 2nd F this morning. Don’t wander to far away from home (Surge) but YHC was looking through the F3 Lexington Q sheets looking for a spot to Q several weeks ago and saw an open …
Seven studs converged on Foxhole this morning. It was cold and very wet, but we got to enjoy some combine-like work in spite of it all. And yes, we got to spin the wheel! Here’s how it went down… CONDITIONS: 37 with rain (and a few flakes of snow) ending just before go time. THE …
YHC woke around 3am and heard the soft pitter patter of rain outside, but knew the pax were counting on a good workout this am, so instead of turning off the alarm as has been done so many times in the past, YHC glanced at the outdoor temp gauge, made a mental note of the …

Quisenberry invited YHC to put a new spin on our region’s original AMRAP. After several evil laughs, the plan was finalized. Here’s what a block version of the Kamikaze looks like.

This Q was not as nearly Risqué as the title makes it sound. It was supposed to snow in greater Lexington this morning and it was definitely raining when YHC rolled up to Shank. With this in mind, a modification was needed to keep the PAX dry and healthy. Why not just do a fun, …
Yesterday I checked the Q sheet for open slots and came across an opening at Detention for today (and Tomahawk on Thursday). So I figured I’d sign up and make a trip over to visit the Detainees. We had 4 PAX for a 3 mile SL and made it through the very slight cold drizzle okay. Shoes …

8 pax made the decision to get better at the Roost on a fine Thursday morning. Toothpick was there early putting in some miles and barking orders at a wayward pax stretching in the lower lot. That wayward pax made his way to the virtual shovel flag and it was none other than Urkel. After …
Before YHC helped launch F3CAT, you could find him roaming around The Hollow. Nearly 2 years after the CAT AO launch, there was an opportunity to return to the home AO and lead the pax for a birthday Q. Celebrating my 47th trip around the sun, called for reps of 47. It’s worth noting that …
A lot going on this month. P200, LRAH, Bad Weather, and Recall is raising money for Make-a-Wish. Always cool seeing PAX stepping-up and doing something God has call them to do. This Spring Recall will be hiking 28.3 miles to raise a goal of $2500. As of this morning (3-4-19) he is 27% of the …

YHC was pretty pumped about all 5 lights being green on the way in this AM. Only slightly disappointed to find the Icehouse lot empty… not for loneliness or jealousy of the fartsackers, but because he wasted a rare on-time arrival. Banjo and the baby seal made the best of their time together – flipping …
