F3 Greenwood

Half and Half

Morning in the Wood: 52*, lil’ cloudy with a lot of commitment. 30 pax realized getting better doesn’t happen accidentally. Half the pax went XL. All of us had fun and got better. #f3counts YHC was one who went XL, so the day before a conversation was had with Kobayashi to ensure the 5:15 crowd […]

It pays to be a WINNER!

20 bright eyed and bushy tailed pax showed up in sub zero temps to welcome YHC for his VQ.  While YHC was setting up for the races Uncle Jesse honked as he drove passed The Shipyard on his way to meet Flossy for a short 11mile sprint around town.  Meanwhile, unsuspecting pax gathered in the […]

Over the Hill

Conditions: 38* F and Clear The Thang Starting from the FountainHead, run north on Main St. to Cambridge. Turn left and stop and wait for the six. Run to the top of the bridge and keep going until you get to the first intersection. Cross over to the other side of the road and run […]

Angie, they can’t say we never tried

So this initial plan was for the Red Friday workout to take on the dreaded benchmark WOD known as Angie.  That said, due to the increased numbers, YHC had to modify.  My thought was that the lack of space for pull-ups would inhibit the PAX from experiencing Angie the way it is intended.  So I […]

“I thought Dora was a kid in a TV show”

16 pax welcomed YHC on his AO Tour of #TheWood. After a smashing time at the Epicenter Tuesday, it was time for putting the Shipyard through it’s paces. YHC was thinking he arrived early but 2 pax were already present and ready to roll. One of these men was our long lost HalfStitch. Welcome back! The weather was perfectly […]

A Juggernaut-sized #DRP

YHC has been stewing on this workout for some time. Bounced back and forth between a twisted #DeckOfDeath, taking a trip to #AMRAPCity or a nice #StringOfPearls. At about 10:30 p.m. last night, the decision was made – a difficult #StringOfPearls. So here’s how it went down: Conditions 42° and wet from last night’s rain. […]

Pre-blast: GOP Debate Convergence 2/13 – MAIN THANG

When:  February 13th, 2016, 7AM Who:  All PAX…all workouts…anyone from around the country traveling in (even the Ruckers…come do your crazy, “I have cigarettes, bacon, and gunpowder for breakfast” workout)…Republican, Democrat, Tree hugger, or “Drill Baby Drill”-er What:  Region-wide Convergence (and further out for those visiting from out of town) Where:  UPDATED – STARTING LOCALE […]

She’s like the wind

The endless twitter banter that is F3 Greenwood recently took a turn to a topic near and dear to my heart…Patrick Swayze.  Gopher suggested I be renamed Dalton which I would gladly accept, although I guess Uncle Jesse (John Stamos) is not too bad.  Back to Swayze, What a man!  Super fit, good looking, all the […]

Just A Friendly Competition

YHC loves any time I get to compete in a competition. I guess that’s why I always enjoyed playing sports and other competitive activities growing up.  YHC hasn’t done a Team VS Team workout yet and decided that  since this was my first time to Q at the Shipyard I would make it happen. Conditions 40’s with […]
