The Spider Men of F3 Set WR Indian Run – 2 Miles!

32 pax sucked up some serious FOGGY GLOOM to put a downPAINment on the day and attack The Rock! Today just felt like a perfect day to be a part of F3. YHC was inspired last night while the family and I watched “The Amazing Spider Man”, and Run Stopper just wanted to lay down the hammer!

Moleskin:

This morning just felt like a perfect day to dish out an F3 workout with the foggy gloom. YHC wasn’t sure how many pax to expect with all 3 Charlotte South workouts going for the first time and being so close to Stonehedge, but as YHC kept seeing car light after car light pull in through the fog it was just awesome to see! Strong work by all the Pax today.

It was great to have 5 of the FNGs from last weeks Stonehedge workout back out here at The Rock and 1 new FNG. Welcome brothers, this is what F3 is all about. The workouts don’t get any easier, you just get stronger and faster! Hope to see you at one of our weekday workouts and back at The Rock next week!

Run Stopper had us line up for an Indian Run that took us 2 miles on an of campus tour. YHC got chill bumps seeing the shovel flag lead the way and the pax pushed on strong the whole way. One things for sure, people love Old Glory, The Shovel Flag. People honked and cheered, and gave hooras the whole way and it was awesome! I think Run Stopper started something great here.

Strong work by Ninja Turtle and Sickle as in typical fashion they lead the way on the sprints and up North Face! I wish you could spare some of that youth on some of us!

Until next time!
