SpeedForNeed does so much more
Not that long ago I came across a tweet by F3Nation about this new thing called SpeedForNeed. It was intriguing, so I looked into it further. This F3 Brother, JRRTolkien, had this plan to bring the joy of running to those with disabilities. I grew up with a younger sister with Down Syndrome, and because […]

Stargate Run With the Runs
The PAX had a good run from downtown Lenoir to the Lenoir Greenway and back to downtown. Several PAX must have stopped along the way and ate something that did not agree with their stomachs. One left early, one had to pull over and take care of business after they left and one was fighting […]
The Bears

Back away slowly, preferably in the direction you came. Walk, don’t run, and keep your eye on the bear so you can see how it will react. We are F3 and we conquer what […]
ER is still the miserablest
Thang? Read here: http://f3hickory.com/2017/08/27/preblast-er-in-reverse/ I honestly thought that w/ the reduced amount of reps per lap, there would be at least someone that would be able to get close to finishing 10 laps. Fake news. Results as follows: Rooster: 4 Beaker: 6 Root: 5 Cousin Eddie: 6 Fuse: 7 Banjo: 6.5 Igloo: 5 Sleeper: 5.5 […]

Preblast: ER in reverse
A preblast? What in the wide world of sports is that? Yes, from time to time, a man will peck out something on the computer BEFORE the workout. Crazy, isn’t it? Tomorrow’s ER format will be Old School’esque. There will be the standard 5 stops per lap. From 3rd Ave and N Center, run to […]
