Dec 7th celebrated on Dec 9th published on Dec 12th
It was a cold morning, around 24 deg as 3 pax gathered to honor the heroes of Pearl Harbor. This year marked the 75th anniversary of the attack by the Japanese Imperial Navy on Pearl Harbor. Early Sunday morning, on Dec 7th 1941, hundreds of Japanese planes took off from air craft carriers in the […]
Running Raindeers
This weekend has had nothing but low temps in the gloom and I knew they would carry over to this morning as well. It was cold and breezy when the 8 PAX arrived at the fountain. Some of us stayed in our cars until 5:10 trying to hold on to some heat, while others began stretching and getting […]
In the shadow of the moon, Terrapin Station.
3 PAX reluctantly shook of the urge to sleep in and posted at Terrapin for a completely improvised workout. I did plan a workout, but decided to switch things up with only 3 in attendance. It went down like this (I’ll try to remember everything): Warmup 25 Burpees OYO The Work Grab a block, return […]
AMRAP Mixtape at the Shipyard
The Shipyard was a cold 24 degrees this morning in the gloom. 5 pax broke through the warm fartsack fog to get better and endure some of Fabio’s favorites on the Mixtape. It’s always a good idea to have a Q planned and ready because you never know when you will need to whip it […]
Nursing Home my A–!!!
YHC was privileged to swap with Kobayashi for the Q this am. Originally meant to be an homage to the idea of devoting ones life to a cause greater than oneself, the beatdown instead became a #crowdpleaser to illustrate that, contrary to some slanderous comments on Slack, the birthplace of F3 Greenwood is as far […]
Colder than a … well you get the idea
Conditions: 25 Degrees (COLD!) Last night Weaver sent YHC a message saying that we would have to tack on some extra speed to keep warm for our hill run in the AM. He was right. When we arrived, my watch said it was 27 degrees outside. When we left it said 25. I guess we […]
Runnin with a Purpose
This week we decided to team up with another running group, the ladies of While America Sleeps, to raise some money for a needy family in our community. Our original plan was to run through the Uptown/Maxwell Ave/Connie Maxwell Christmas lights, but all of the pieces did not fall into place to get all of […]
Parking Lot Party
YHC enjoyed the parking lot beatdown on Tuesday and wanted to continue the beatdown there. Four corners were good for the PAX to stay close and could encourage each other to complete the excercises. Disclaimer given. Grab a coupon and meet at the parking lot. COP 20 Squats IC 20 LBAC IC 20 LBAC IN […]
Don’t Make Eye Contact
Interesting start to Fury and the #Mumblechatter persisted throughout, which is a good thing so we could get our minds off of the muscle failure and elevated heart rate induced by a total max effort workout. Apparently the Twitter monkey can stop a whole circus. You’ll have to ask Inspector about this, but good luck […]
I’ll Take Two For Fury’s Revenge
YHC has been posting regularly to F3Greenwood workouts for more than a year now. Rarely has one felt so avoidable. Conditions: Rain and sorta cold. It was 0515, Suck It! The night prior was a long and sleepless night for YHC. There were lots of pee breaks, and kids crying, and work to do’s (WTF […]
