Once Upon a Time....
Sit as I weave a story of pain and dismay. What better way to work out than to embrace our child hood stories of kings man, giants, and childhood fancy. Well at least that's what I thought. YHC set out on a quest to…

YHC answered the call for Zima to Q at the Abyss. Having wanted but never been there, had to scout out the day before. Lots of open space at Palisades Park Elementary (and well lit). Ideas started popping in my head…

Ask not for whom the Year tolls- It tolls for thee
The morning dawned chilly but clear as I approached Pantheon on the first anniversary of my intro to F3. Alas my "sponsors" Howitzer and Bing would not be present due to having moved (Howitzer) and injury (Bing). Fish…

Clydesdales got options
This AO has become my new favorite. It has something for truly everyone. Yeah it's a running workout, but probably has some of the finest #mumblechatter in the Fort. Guys who do kettlebell, they post here. Ruckers post…

It was moderate...sort of
After a couple high-tech Q reschedules, my number was drawn to Q our supposed "moderate" AO at the Yard yesterday. I've heard this place is moderate but I know some of the regular PAX and they're not so moderate…
