For some reason, YHC was nominated to write a BackBlast for F3 GrandStrand’s Blue Ridge Relay (BRR) Team, “Worse Pace Scenario”. This is a daunting task considering that this CSAUP officially started Thursday at 1pm when 16 Pax converged in the back lot of BombSquad to load 2 Vans with equipment, water, snacks, and a …
Shoutout to Waffle House for being the only establishment open during this icy morning. Like our first middle school girlfriend, we knew we should have had better standards but you were the best we could do at the time. This morning could be considered a CSAUP event – it was so icy that the mosey …
AO: InterRegional Conditions: Mid 30’s to Low 50’s It all started about a month and half ago when a couple of PAX got together for some 2nd F Festivities at the Grumpy Monk. Not long after sitting down, ordering apps, & swigging some suds somebody suggested that we needed a CSAUP! Immediately, Sunshine sprang into …
No need to plan this one, the work out was created for us. IPC Week #1. I warned a lot of guys about what last year brought and not to be fooled by WK 0. Week 1 was going to bring it. And I believe most of us highly underestimated what was a meat grinder …
Event: GrowRuck 17 Sandhills AO – Pinehurst, NC Conditions: Cold, Windy, Wet This journey started several months ago in either August or September when Flash announced that Grow Ruck 17 would take place in Pinehurst.

Asheville Spartan Super (Black Mountain, NC) How did this come to be? Sometime this past spring, YHC noticed Rousey’s Slack post about the Spartan. YHC had participated in a couple of Spartan races back in the days before F3 and before he got out of shape but now posting to F3 beatdowns, YHC figured, …
2019 Dragon Boat Races Conditions: 79 degrees, sunny, slight breeze, perfect Alternative Backblast Titles: (1) “We Were Robbed by the Myrtle Beach Police Department”; (2) “ The Thrill of Victory & The Agony of Defeat!!”; or (3) “Just the Tip” Let’s be honest, we all signed up for the Dragonboat Race to win!! No one …
AO’s: BombSquad, The Village, The Tower, The Rivera Regions: F3 GrandStrand & F3Republic It 4:30 am as the PAX begin to arrive at BombSquad to load up our Van #2. Only one van (transporting 8 HIM, right?) would be making the trek this morning as Van #1 (carrying 4 HIM) left for Columbia the night …
The 2018 edition of the Palmetto Swamp Fox Adventure race was held St. Patrick’s Day. There was a fine showing of F3, with our members comprising almost 20% of the field. With those numbers, and hopefully more next year- WE WANT OUR OWN CHECK IN LINE! Steve Morrone is a fine race director, and this …
