Red Friday 9/16/16
9 PAX decided to step up to what YHC was cooking. This week marked 15 years from the 9/11 attacks. YHC remembers exactly when and where he was that day. I’m sure most PAX do. To honor that memory and those lost, we decided to perform the 9/11 workout. The Thang 2001m run (Buy in) 20:01 […]
Rogue Red Friday
Red Friday was cancelled because 24 pax (some of them devoted Red Friday participants, including the AOQ for Red Friday) were out of town running the hills of NC and Virginia in the #BRR (Blue Ridge Relay). YHC thought about it, and decided to see if he could drum up some interest in The Wood […]

Happy Birthday RED Friday
5/28/2015 is the “official” Birthday for RED Friday, but since that falls on a Sunday this year we decided to celebrate the official start to what is YHC’s favorite workout of the week today (8/26/2016). Thanks to a text from Juggernaut containing the Back Blast from the original workout YHC decided to redo that workout […]
#REDFriday turns ONE!
It’s hard to believe, really. One year ago, a few of us renegades who don’t fancy running as much as some of our more cheetah-like brethren decided that enough was enough and struck out to put in some work on Fridays. But we didn’t want it to be just any ole workout. We wanted it […]
A new Hero WOD for RED Friday
7 pax posted in the gloom for the weekly R.E.D. Friday #beatdown at the Epicenter. After almost a year YHC is finally getting his VQ at this. I am not sure why it has taken so long. RED Friday has always been one of my favorite workouts of the week but I guess I have […]
SSG Keith Matthew “Matt” Maupin
Another RED Friday is here and 12 Pax have chosen to honor the memory of SSG Matt Maupin with a “new to #theWood” Hero WOD. Read his bio here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2004_Iraq_KBR_convoy_ambush 84* misting and super muggy Disclaimer (actually, i don’t think this happened) RED Friday’s are, in YHC’s opinion, the toughest workouts offered in #theWood. Today was […]
For Wittman
Four pax came out to honor Army Sgt. Jeremiah Wittman, who was killed in action in Afghanistan in 2010. Number was a little low for REDFriday, so YHC gave everyone a couple of extra minutes to get there. No? No problem. Let’s roll! Mosey to the coupon cage, grab a coupon and mosey over to […]

“And everybody feels so determined, not to feel anyone else’s pain”
7 PAX made their way to another glorious Red Friday workout Q’d by YHC. As we continue to ramp up for BRR, I wanted to get something with a bit of mileage. Scrolling through the Red Friday workout list, I stumbled upon Hidalgo. As a group, we at F3 Greenwood had not attempted it yet, […]
