32 degrees, no problem. The strong 11 that took the Daily Red this AM got better. Kukoc was Kukoc: showed up late but still got the most miles in. And he passed Dunphy, which we think is why he shows up late. Moist and Muggy Tape joined YHC on fast ruck. We kept a 15 …
A few weeks ago, our fearless AOQ Blue Rhino negotiated a Q swap with Lumbergh, so YHC was voluntold to make the drive out to Pleasant Hill and visit the men of Ambush. A task which I happily accepted because you’d be hard pressed to find a funnier group of guys or a better example …
YHC has had a tough time waking up on Monday mornings as of late and usually settles on a 5:45 neighborhood run. Saturday I saw Pop Off at the convergence and he asked when I’d be back to Wander, to which I kind of mumblechuckled but made no commitment. Then Sunday afternoon, we had a …
Today was a special bootcamp. I won’t rehash everything I said in the preblast, but I was absolutely blown away by the support for Faye shown by the men of Detention, the men of the other F3 Lexington AOs, and the men of F3 Nation across the country. Thumbs Up put together a slideshow highlighting …
During the days of February 10 – 13, our community suffered a tragedy as 6 year old Faye Marie Swetlik was abducted from her front yard and found deceased almost 4 days later near the home of a neighbor. During those 4 days, hundreds of law enforcement officers and first responders spent countless sleepless hours …
On January 26, 2016, 41 PAX showed up on the campus of Oak Grove Elementary for some #additionbydivision and launch F3 Lexington’s newest AO. At the time, none could fathom what this lil’ AO would become and how many lives it would change. YHC wasn’t there that day, and spent about 5 months being EH’ed …
Today was my first ever visit to Detention. It’s a good hike from my house but a promise is a promise and I told Boo Boo I would Q if he showed up to the Stride Party. Well I Q’ed today…….still waiting for confirmation Boo Boo was at the Stride Party. He must have been …
As you, dear reader, may or not be aware, almost a year ago, YHC was enjoying a nice ruck at Wander when I came upon a patch of black ice. This caused my legs to comically fly out from beneath me while the weight of my ruck carried me to the ground. The final result …
Several weeks ago, YHC and Shades Of Grey ended up having a couple of beverages together at Keg Cowboy and decided it would be fun to do an AOQ swap day and as such, declared December 10th the perfect day for it! It’s been a while since I’ve been to see the men of Graveyard, …
YHC put out on a request in the Detention Group DM yesterday to see if anyone wanted to bring the pain today, which was met by crickets. That is, until Waze remembered that years ago, he once visited Detention for the Gauntlet and we ran the Expulsion and suggested we do that instead! For those …
As an AOQ, it’s a great feeling to see the Q sheet filled up with a bunch of different guys ready to step up and lead the PAX. Variety, different leadership styles, and new ideas are what keeps the PAX energized and ready for more. I’m fortunate at Detention that we have a great mixture …
YHC’s travel schedule has been crazy the past few weeks, so it felt great to be back out in the gloom with the Detainees! As always, the PAX showed up in full force to tackle the Iron PAX Challenge, and for the 2nd week in a row, an FNG was in attendance for the show! …
Editor’s Note: #TClaps to Caravan for bringing a strong VQ that completely eliminated all chances for mumblechatter. Rumor has it that he also ate breakfast before he came out!! Here’s how it went down: WEATHER 70 and more humid that we’d have guessed STRIDELITE 7 PAX total to take on Big Timber DISCLAIMER/PRAYER WARM UP …
Editors Note: T-claps to Danica for a great VQ! We won’t forget this one for a while. As the 7 PAX left for Stridelite, a Lexington deputy stopped us to let us know that a shooting had taken place across the street and there was an armed fugitive on the run. It certainly made us …
Hard to believe it’s been 3 years since Tardy and Banjo convinced me to set my alarm and actually come out to my first F3 workout! At the time, I had the same excuse as all other FNGs…”Y’all are crazy! 5:15 is way too early! No way I’d ever get up that early just to …

When YHC grabbed the Q on Monday, it was right before the MRI for the ol shoulder after the ice “incident”. As I laid in the tube of death, I figured I’d put my weinke together as I waited. I figured I’d break out the @F3Gear Workout Deck again, but try to mix it up this time …

When @F3Gear tweeted out that they were releasing a specialized Workout Deck of cards, YHC was one of the first to snap up the pre-order. Once they were produced and arrived, I couldn’t wait to use them with my brothers at Detention, except at that time the Q sheet was slap full. They sat and …
While YHC has known several of the regular PAX out at The Stand, unfortunately I had not made the effort to travel out into the gloom with my brothers at Deerfield. That changed a month or so ago at Salsarita’s when Chinstrap voluntold YHC to jump on the Q sheet (by putting me on the …
YHC came huffing and puffing back into the Icehouse parking lot at 4:59 from some early morning Stridelite only to be informed that the Q spot was wide open and had YHC’s name on it. So after a quick prayer, off we went into the gloom! Conditions: 72 and the never-ending humidity of Fall in …
*SCENE* Etch-a-Sketch is at home, spending countless hours per day preparing for his Jumanji VQ on June 28th. Running through his weinke over and over again, trying out all the exercises to ensure his time his exact. Then his phone buzzes. *RESIDENCE OF ALTER BOY* Tuesday, June 26th. Alter Boy wakes up in a cold …
What’s that? A Wander backblast? Written by someone other than Banjo? Miracles do happen… 4 PAX came together on a surprisingly cool Monday morning to get a little bit better than we were on Sunday. We checked the clock, saw it was 5:00 (which means we had at least another minute until Banjo rolled in …
YHC made a commitment late last year that I’d visit each AO in Lexington at least once and Q at each AO in Lexington at least once. I want to get out and put in work with all of the men that make this the best region in F3 Nation. So where better to start …
YHC has been guilty lately of taking all the Fs that F3 has to offer without really giving back the way I should. I have been relying on just showing up and having someone else have a workout prepared, which is easy. So after realizing this, I popped open the Q spreadsheet and signed up …
The day started the same as any other Wander day, a few PAX milling about mumblechattering while Banjo rolls in on two wheels at 04:59:55. As we waited for him to perform his normal morning rituals, we noticed a green package being pulled out that appeared to be wrapped up nice and tight like a …
While our fearless leader is off gallivanting around Key West and cruising around Cuba with his M, YHC was left in charge of the shovel flag and thus, ended up with the Sunday Q. 21 PAX, including both flatbacks and weirdos, chose the harder thing and defeated the fartsack. Conditions: 71 and clear, low humidity, …
