There’s always more
I’ve been tossing around several topics to write about this month. From how we’re a fraternity – a good one, mind you. That led to fraternity jokes. To warnings about how winter is coming and finally to introspective thoughts about my 5th year w/ F3. With that in mind: 1: I knew a guy who […]
Back Farts
Weather: moist….very, very wet! Cousin Eddie be sweating me on making it for my Q this morning. Although, in his defense I did miss my last Q at ER a week ago. So there’s that. But I was there and so were 5 other guys for Iron Pixie ish workout. warmup: SSH and Humpies Mosey […]
Hilloween
Last week at Arrow SP asked me “What’s the route?” My response “How should I know, I’ve got the Q next week.” Well after Arrow last week we decided to do Hilloween for Arrow, what does that mean for YHC? It means that I forgot that I was on the Q this morning. The good […]
Blocks, Laps & AMRAPs

Mosey for a lap around the block and back up the steps to where we started. Everyone grab a partner and a block. Partner 1 runs lap while Partner […]
Burke County Iron
Weather: Bit cool. On a scale from T-Shirt to Balaclava, if Tooth Fairy were posting he’d be in a Mock Turtleneck and pantaloons. Thang: Warmups. Standard: who am I fooling, aren’t they all standard? Mosey to football field with a brief stop to pick up a rock per pax. Starting at one end zone, drop […]
The Tower: Parks and Reps
YHC was pretty excited about Q’ing his first Tower workout: a new AO with lots of new places to explore, like the Hildebran Community Park, so we went there… but first the warm-up (all in cadence): 20 Side-straddle Hops 10 Little Arm Circles 10 Reverse Arm Circles 10 Humpies 15 High Knees (called High Knees, […]
Name Change at Whipping Stick
Ok, so you may be wondering about that title. Slack had a thread going about changing my name. I have been known to bring a snack cake to a workout to give out at the end. Most of the time, it’s honey buns or TastyKake donuts, thus the discussion to change my name. I got […]
Wait, who showed up for Infinity?
Lenoir held its own version of nearby festivals that honor aliens, Bigfoot, ghosts, or other rare sightings, as Babyface, Friar, and Hanger were the only pax to brave a cold gloom. Babyface has moved on to Granite Falls, Hanger has given his life over to the soccer gods, and Friar is busy busting through his […]
Choose your own adventure
Weather: cold enough for Powder to sport a toboggan and long pants. Also TF busted out the pantaloons. Thang: Sometime in mid-October 5 years ago, I started coming to F3 so I wanted to go a little old school w/ the pax today for my own lil F3versary. Way back on those days, the Q […]
1st Pres > Corinth
I generally don’t F3 on Tue/Thur so I was surprised to be asked to Q Howitzer. I showed up early to get a lay of the land, I haven’t attended a howitzer before the great remodel of union square… spoiler, its the same, however, the cannon is on a pedestal, which Jordache so eloquently pointed […]
