Post Growruck/GTE 24 Muthaship

This should not be news, but I feel the need to say this again:  I am not a Rucker.  If there was a line of dudes that needed to be arranged in order from Most Rucking Heckler to Least Rucking Heckler, I would be oriented towards the front of that line.  I’ve shouted stuff to […]

GrowRuck 22 AAR

If you are a man, want to get better, want to get stronger, or like F3 then this event is for you.  This is so much more than a ruck and this weekend is so special.  To begin with, I am not a good writer and whatever I write will not do this weekend justice […]

2021 – Your 41

 King Saul’s army had 3000+ men. All of them were being tormented by a bully named Goliath. Then David stepped up and did something about it. I bet more than one of Saul’s soldiers were saying – “David is Completely Stupid and what he is doing is Utterly Pointless….He is going to get his ass […]

Return of the Mortimer

Save a turkey, murder a bunny

From the CSAUP-leaning mind of The Station’s Jake Brake, came the concept of the Murder Bunny Massacre (t-shirt concept- Centerfold). At 0530, Gump, Jake Brake, and Diamond Dave began with their 1 mile run (sort of a warm-up) then began murdering bunnies. At 0600, 7 of the other 8 pax (Dinghy was running late) arrived […]

Dirty Myrtle Grow Ruck

First:  I’m not a fan of rucking.   Second:  Plenty of you have made it clear that you feel the same way that I do.  Lots of junk talk on Friday mornings from Ram guys to the Friday AM Ruckers.  Like this:  “Hey, better hurry up so you don’t miss Study Hall”.  “Bring me back a […]

30 Hours///7 Weeks & Counting

Assuming that the Christmas Party is held as currently tentatively scheduled on 12/5, you have 7 weeks to do some CSAUP stuff.  As I’m typing this, 6 dudes are getting their 0.5 point for doing the Halloween Hobble.  Couple more dudes will get 1.5 points next weekend for doing Quest for the Crest 50K.  If […]
