When searching for ideas for today’s beatdown, I tried to think of some of the old classics that we haven’t seen in a while. And since we are in the heart of football season (Go Deacons!) it occurred to me that we haven’t seen the touchdown beatdown lately. This is a classic you-against-the-Pax challenge that […]

Counting Up and Down with Disaster…and Hot Wheels
Twenty-three men showed up in the gloom at HCES this morning to help @Disaster celebrate his six year anniversary with F3 (again). One of them was dressed in full winter weather clothing (I’ll let you guess who). There plenty of visitors from Tradition, Skywalker, The Bridge, Lake Norman, and even one from Waco Texas. After […]
Six Years with Disaster
Ten men showed up at MCCP this morning to help @Disaster celebrate his six year anniversary with F3. Some were chilly, some were sleepy, some were hungover (cough, @Poutine, cough) and no one was smiling. Well nothing cheers up the mood like a whole lot of running right @Sandman? @Focker showed up a little late […]
Hey look! A Saturday backblast!
Nine men showed up at MCCP this morning on one of the nicest days of the year. Eight of them showed up on time (cough, @Woodstock, cough). @Pavarotti introduced us to his friend Steve, who is up from Texas to attend the Clemson/UGA game tonight. After we were able to dodge school buses long enough […]
Creative AMRAP Counting in the “Rain”
Twelve men ignored the rainy forecast and showed up in the gloom at HCES this morning to see what kind of nonsense @Disaster had in store for them. They were not disappointed. (Or maybe they were. Who knows?) Eleven of them were there for a formal, sternly presented version of the disclaimer (we’re not messing […]
Feel Free to Ignore my Instructions
Nine men showed up at HCES this morning expecting heavy rain and even heavier mumble chatter but instead were treated to cool weather and a pretty solid beatdown. YHC saw a 100% chance of rain in the forecast so I showed up early with my handy step stool weinke and bag of ping pong balls […]
Worst Disclaimer Ever
Fifteen men showed up in the gloom at HCES this morning to see what kind of stupidity @Disaster had in store for them. After using up most of my standard beatdowns over the past few months, I had to dig deep into my bag of tricks for today’s workout. I tried to sneak one by […]
Celebrity Birthday Beatdown
Fourteen men showed up at HCES this morning to help @Disaster celebrate his 53rd birthday. The school staff already had the balloons up by the time we got there (well done staff) so after a quick disclaimer we were off. Today’s theme (because God forbid I try to host a beatdown without a theme – […]
The 1000, er, no make that the 900 rep challenge
Twelve men showed up in the not-quite-as-chilly-as expected gloom at Mallard Creek Community Park this morning to see just what kind of nonsense @Disaster had planned for them. The Q didn’t fail to disappoint. Several of the PAX were pre-warned about today’s beatdown at @Brinkley’s impromptu fire-pit based sausage fest last night and some of […]
Making Danica Patrick Proud
Seven men braved ominous weather predictions and showed up at HCES this morning to see what kind of stupidity @Disaster had in store for them. In reality, the weather turned out to be not a real problem, with temps near 50 degrees and a cool mist falling from the sky. After the usual disclaimer, YHC […]
