Conditions:30s Cool and Clear 18 pax beat the fartsack and posted for a Dunply Valentines WO. Heard there was 11 pax that did Stridelite but 3 decided not to do BC. I guess they heard YHC was Q and decided to go elsewhere. Could have been 21 at Surge today. You know who you are. …
First up, we welcomed FNG “Enlist” Soaker’s 18 year old son. He reports to Paris Island and the Marine Corps in March. We are proud of you Enlist. As this is Valentine’s Day, YHC thought it would be nice to allow the PAX to do some of their favorite exercises. Grab two blocks per Pax. …
Biggie had to meet an FNG for their first post and needed a Q to fill in at Jumanji. YHC sprinted out of the right field bullpen & claimed the open Q slot. At 0525 hr, YHC was solo until Columbo arrived. Then, King James showed up followed by T-Spot and we were off. The Thang …
10 Pax post to Crypt for a cool morning block workout. Always great the see some familiar faces at Crypt and a few new ones as well. Thanks to No-Help for making YHC almost miss the start since he drug me on a “quick” loop around campus, and thanks to Rocking Chair for hanging with …
Today started off in the gloom with YHC wondering what happened to the stride lite crowd… It was cold and I was feeling like a hot coffee and a nap. But persisted and good thing, a faithful PAX showed up to help start this Valentine’s Day q off right! 2 years of F3 have meant …

Back at the home AO again on this chilly Valentine’s day. YHC doesn’t normally care much for Valentine’s day, but a recent Bible verse made him reconsider… more later in the Devotional. It was good to see the one and only House again! Back in town from KC, this #HIM was ready to make his …
YHC’s disclaimer normally includes “I don’t know your medical condition so modify if you need to.” Well, YHC does know Brainiac’s bum knee won’t allow him move around like he wants so we stayed in a pretty confined area. Good on Brainiac for continuing to accelerate even though he limited. Most pax wouldn’t post. Tclaps! …
Ambush PAX…. What can YHC say? They bring it. Mumble Chatter, determination, spirit, and even a fowl smell that almost caused Marleau.

6 pax came together in the cool, windy gloom to run 6.2 miles. Hemingway went XL. T-Claps to #HIM. The route kept coming near to Stride only to turn back around and head out for more miles. It could be somewhat disheartening each pass. Route looked like this… R on South Lake Drive R on Gibson …

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 …
4 Pax post to Wander on what looked like it could be rainy but was only a drizzle. Bar Crawl (recovering from the ice patch) and Ranger took the lead while Half Sack and Banjo did the harder thing by carrying around the “baby seal” with their rucks for some extra pleasure. The route was …

A few days ago the Wander AOQ threw out some open dates. YHC decided to pick up the Q this morning. Partly to fill the slot, and partly because I need some more Bragg prep. The 3 mile route was intentionally a shorter out-n-back route so that we could get in some PT midway. Here …
12 pax posted this morning for a deconstructed Murph. The pax did the work and encouraged one another in the process. It was a good morning. Conditions: Cloudy and Upper 40s The Thang: Disclaimer/BOM/Prayer Modified Murph: Laps 1 and 2: Cone 1 – 10 Squats Cone 2 – 10 Merks Cone 3 – 10 Squats …

YHC took the Q this morning trying to decide if it would be speed work or a normal 4 to 5 ish mile loop, Why not a little of both. It has been a long time since the Pax took on our fitness test, the Haynes. Another selfish reason to run the Haynes is that …

Weather: 60 degrees, Typical February Morning! Fax # (803)-SPACKLE Shake & Bake had to take a day off today, so he made a call to the Q bullpen. YHC handled most of the duties and Spackle handled the rest, which mainly consisted of complaints and criticism. After all, you can’t spell critique without a Q! …
Weather – extremely delightful. Mid 60’s with a little breeze. So after noticing the weather report for this morning, YHC was pretty stoked about getting out to the gloom for some futbol action. And 14 other men decided they were ready for some action too…. I would be horrible to not start off that nothing …
With 60 degree weather on a Friday, and at the best Friday bootcamp in all of F3 Lexington, there shouldn’t be a surprise that 34 men came together to get their weekend started of right. YHC had a great workout planned, however in normal Scotch fashion the delivery could improve a little. #TWSS Disclaimer Prayer …
15 PAX joined YHC at Ambush today…YHC always enjoys Q’ing at Ambush. These guys can bring the chatter for sure. WeeWee told me Ambush PAX wanted a lot of #GetBetterment so YHC dialed up a previous Q that the Surge boys really enjoyed. In hopes to push the PAX this morning, YHC tried to mix …

The intended purpose this morning was to do an entire Q without standing up.

YHC got voluntold he had the Q this morning, and after watching other non-professionals do this for a while figured it probably time. There were 15 HIM who stepped inside and converted C55O104 O6 and 78O2 into 55CO2 and 52H2O (you may have to look that up.) Mumblechatter was light as the PAX took it …
It had been too long since YHC had visited The Hollow. So, when the call came from AOQ Scotch, YHC jumped at the opportunity. Now, legend has it that these Hollow boys have been putting up great attendance numbers and are absolute beasts. So, figured it was super important YHC bring something a little different …
WEATHER: A beautiful 50 degrees in February THE THANG: Circle up for SSH for 20 and TTT for 15.

YHC always enjoys his time out at Surge. These guys work hard and get after it. There must have been 8 or 9 of us for stridelite. Maybe more since counting is not my forte. Anyway when the 5:15 hit we had 19 men in the parking lot, although one was on two wheels sliding …
Not sure where to put this. So, I’ll put it right up top. Canseco was not the most overdressed today. Somehow, Swanson found enough layers to take that title. 16 PAX answered the call for the #Granolikaze. As usual, the PAX pushed hard, focusing on correct form and complete reps. Conditions: 51 deg with clear …
After last weeks “Time Trial” workout, YHC was motivated to get back out in the gloom at The Bounty to continue working on speed. 7 PAX felt the same and were happy to take the DRP for some speed work betterment. Here’s how things went this morning at The Bounty. Weather: 41 and perfect run …

YHC was tapped (for some reason) to lead the officially official #Tread launch. Some of us XLed for an extra 30mins, and due to someone’s miscalculations (not naming any names), YHC did the disclaimer and prayer on the fly.

The best Friday bootcamp title took a hit this AM when Notebook took the reigns at Urban Legend. While last week’s QIC, Bulldog, is known for his preparedness, meticulously setting the scene well in advance of his duty, Notebook is the opposite. He plans as the the pax run needlessly around the AO. The juxtoposition …

Chilly in the school yard today. But once we got moving with some mindless, conversational labor, turns out it wasn’t so bad and we even got some work done. 4 Detention faithful put in some manual labor makin small rocks at the bottom of the hill into small rocks at the top of the hill …
Conditions: COLD COLD COLD 20s, clear 5 pax for a FROZEN CAT WO with YHC. The fartsack snagged a few of the regulars but I commend the 4 that posted. Navy Bean said he couldn’t say he liked YHC workout and he felt a new kind of pain. YHC mission accomplished. Good work men! FNGs …
The Turning Point Twitter guy called for #DRP & smokeboots Wednesday evening. To post in temps that feel like low 20s is a hard thing that does require a red pill. Smokeboots were also required this AM for this smokefest. Plenty of burpees, a little bit of running & some strategic plyo movements earned us …

The Bounty has been “running” for well over a year now so we thought it was about “time” to start tracking our progress. This morning was the first timed workout for the 1600m, 800m, & 400m. We will keep track of these times for the pax. We will time every other month to see the …

It was another great morning running with the PAX of @F3Stride! 11 brothers showed up to get a little better.

The new Friday morning norm for many F3LexSC PAX is Urban Legend…a bootcamp option on Friday mornings at 5:15 (starting point is the 9/11 memorial in downtown Lexington). Why?

13 PAX came to play Futbol this morning (12 of which were on time… cough, Pebbles, cough…) at the Grand Stadium at River Bluff.
