Great title, C Ed. Thanks. Howdy men and greetings from F3Hickory’s website. Ain’t it a beauty? Couple of 1st F items for discussion. Feel free to read, completely gloss over, and/or provide any feedback you feel necessary. Except you. And you over there in corner.

RAM Happy BDay BJ
Last minute Q for RAM = no problem. Not pressing the snooze for prerun … that’s another story. I thought I was going to be late to take off for a prerun but ended up the 1st PAX there. Here comes Patty, then Thunderdome, then…. two messages from SP and Cuz (one hit the snooze and […]

BRR should be treated as a Ginger in a crowd of normal people, if you will. Maybe I’ve gotten soft in those past […]
…Twas Dark and Gloomy….
…a few days before the storm at the Organ Grinder! I don’t know if you have every moseyed on the Hickory Trailhead Greenway on a cloudy damp morning @ 5:30 am, but its anything but green. Actually its dark – real dark & kinda creepy…and if you know how “The OG” got its AO […]
Super 21’s @TheMount
9 PAX showed up on a warm, muggy Tuesday morning to get better. It went something like this. Warm-up (in cadence, 12 reps) SSH ATT Imperial Storm Troopers Forward Arm Circles Reverse Arm Circles Windmills and last but not least, it wouldn’t be a F3 workout if there weren’t any burpees. 5 Burpees OYO. Now […]
