Well it’s not the first time we’ve witnessed jeans being worn to battle, but this is the first time the man sporting jeans knew this was Battle. In Gump’s defense, he was simply dropping off his son for a wrestling tournament. There was some serious EHing going on that finally convinced Gump to enter Battle …
When it’s your turn to Q, you always find that extra gear to push the pax outside of their comfort zone. Legion always has that extra pressure to exceed the expectation of the pax. Word came late in the evening that JarJar was bringing in another FNG. We are not really sure what he does over at …
It was a beautiful, muggy morning and Chaser showed up looking like he had already jumped in a pool. YHC confirmed that he would stay for the entire workout for this Q, even though he had another golf match to attend. YHC shouted out something stupid and quick that resembled a Non-F3 approved disclaimer, that …
YHC has missed Battle for the last few weeks based on gaining more miles on the weekends. Rotation was up for a Co-Q with Misfire, but he has a back injury that kept him grounded. There is a reason Battle uses a CO-Q approach, and the Pax demand all out intensity for the full hour. …
It’s Battle, enough said. Conditions 38 degrees, yea that’s cold. The Thang: Wingback Run to the Frosty Artificial Tundra for a quick warm up: SSH-20 IC Butt Kicks-20 IC High Knees-20 IC Round 1-Move to 40 yard Line: Bear Crawl to the goal line 15 Bottom Burpees Reverse Bear Crawl back to 40 15 BB …
YHC is fresh off the Ragnar Trail Race with many other PAX. Grand time was had by all. Serena in particular had so much fun on the easy Green Trail, that he decided to run an extra 2 miles. These miles were completely pointless and unnecessary, but Serena ran them anyway. Call it getting lost, stubborn, confused, …
2 brutal Qs last week and Heist tapering for RAGNAR so it’s probably a good time to have a nice easy Q to let the body recover right? Nah. It’s the near death experience of Legion that solidified YHC in F3. YHC was half in/ half out for a few years before Legion. Now YHC never misses …
The last two Legion Qs were brutal! Tuesday was an aggressive Splinter led Q, and Thursday was another great Dealer’s Choice. These back to back Q’s had a residual effect on the PAX muscles and minds for days. We originally set a monthly AOQ day as a day to reel everybody back in to ensure …
It’s the day after Labor Day. It’s also the first Tuesday of the Month, which is designated as AOQ Day at Legion. This can only add up to one thing, WORK! YHC certainly needed to create something horrible for the PAX to remember throughout their workday. Conditions: 71 degrees, clear, and very humid The Thang: …
It’s always fun to set up a convergence between Legion and The Woodshed. These two AOs are 1.5 miles apart, so the choice to attend one versus the other is based strictly on how hard one wants to get pushed. YHC thinks the Legion rock is bigger, but always like to attempt settling that argument …
Last week YHC realized he was double booked for Co-Q. First was Co-Q at Battle with Wingback. Second was Co-Q for the Q School Bootcamp with McLovin and Cornstache. With all of these great minds, we got the details all worked out quickly. YHC would do the first half of Battle, and leave nothing in …

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.” It’s difficult to think of another statement that so concisely sums up the core principles of what we believe in …
Always a pleasure to Q a workout. Even a bigger pleasure to experience a Q with your 2.0. Bullseye (13) says he thinks he is too big for F3 Dads (now that he has posted to Legion with YHC). Bean (11) was excited for her first Co-Q, but woke up with a 101 fever. She …
First VQ by YHC was cancelled due to lame work excuses stacked around tax season. This time around it was going to happen. Countless Legion posts certainly set the framework for what would be a Q worthy of Mumble Chatter coming to an abrupt end. Conditions: 74 with abundant, warm moisture The Thang: Disclaimer Warm-up: …
In addition to The Mission, YHC has been a regular at Legion now for a few months. The time had come to step up for the VQ and get on the regular Legion rotation. Many have stated that the night before the VQ, that nerves are tense and sleep is a bit difficult. For …

YHC is introducing a slightly modified structure to Legion. We have our traditional Monthly Murph, Convergence with Woodshed, and regular Q rotation. Now we have added in AOQ Day to kick-start each month at the proper pace. Then we end the month with Guest Q day to welcome in travelers from distant AOs, and Poker Day to add in completely unpredictable …
As the new AOQ for Legion, YHC has noticed that Legion is slowly creeping up the list for most Pax posting in F3 Columbia recently. The sad observation is that the other AO numbers appear to be shrinking. Our core group of Legion Legit Pax do not want to grow by simply stealing other area …
While sitting in the gloom waiting for the Pax to arrive, YHC tweeted out a brief definition of Battle. Battle: “Part of war which is well defined in duration, area and force commitment”. U know it’s hard, just post. The men that post to Battle expect to be pushed and know it’s going to suck for a full hour. When …
It was entirely too early to see any shadows, but there is a street light or two known to cast a shadow in the gloom near Hampton Park. Early reports indicate that the Groundhog stayed our for a pleasant day of lounging in the meadow to casually welcome in the early spring weather. The Legion …
Fresh off seeing the Clemson loss in person and only posting once for the week, made for a good foundation to orchestrate a reasonable level of suck for this Q. P200 training has kept YHC apart from the #bellmagic for weeks. It was time to bring a moderate level of pain and punishment to those …
Six pax jumped on it for a jolly Saturday morning. Since YHC fogot that he had the Woodshed Q, he took the Battle Shovel Flag from Splinter after the Thursday Christmas Splinter beatdown at Legion. There was plenty of time to plant the Shovel Flag at Battle, then mosey back over to Woodshed. Turned out …

Its was the VQ for YHC with the Stumble gang. Noteworthy comments from the Pax included, “Why didn’t you tweat out the route”, “why didn’t you build a route on Strava”, “Why didn’t you tell us your plans before we got out of our warm beds”… Ok notes taken and I will do better next …

9 men shook off the fartsack threads and braved the rain to try out IronYard at its new Wednesday home. With the MudRun tucked away in the Archives, YHC stumbled upon a large amounts for “free/creativity time”. Perfect timing to piece together a creative challenge for the Pax. Since this was the first launch of the Wednesday Ironyard …
Over 400 pax converged at the Leatherneck Course in Gaston, SC for the 2015 Fall Edition of the Super Bowl of F3 – THE LEGENDARY ULTIMATE CHALLENGE MUD RUN. This was a year of the “First”. The fact that this was YHC’s first EVER MudRun was completely overshadowed by much more worthy “First” acknowledgements. Thanks …

We trust all of you are excited and ready to be a part in our largest gathering of F3 men. When F3 Nation descends upon the Leatherneck this Saturday, we will definitely turn some heads and draw a lot of attention. There are a few logistical changes, so this PreBlast is an attempt to provide sufficient detail …
Flea was first on campus for first Kettle Bell experience. I handed him a nice 30 pounder to break in. He was concerned that we were the only two on site at 5:27am. I assured him that we would have a one on one personal training session if needed, but we would not ditch the post. 1 minute later 7 …
YES It’s that time again, so get ready…the MUD RUN is coming! YHC will be the Q for F3Nation this year. Your Regional Q’s are being finalizing. Many regions have an assigned Mud Run Q for the Fall, the full list should be completed and displayed soon (updates will be made to this blast to …
