It was an F3Raleigh road trip weekend, as F3 Nation’s second oldest region sent their A-Team up I-95 and points east to lend support to our F3HamptonRoads bretheren as they launch their own region in the beautiful tidewater of Virginia. Judging by the 9 PAX (including two FNG’s) who showed up, these guys already have the fitness-stuff well in hand. Hopefully, we gave them a few ideas, but these guys could show us all a few things.
So with shovel flags firmly planted, we set out to make the most of newly-minted Stinkhill workout at the scenic Mt. Trashmore AO (no joke about the scenic).

COT
Count Off and Namerama, Mike had to leave early so he will be named at a later post. Welcome FNG Triple Option! Gnard Dogg, Epoxy and Costco relayed some of their F3 thoughts and experiences. Mostly what F3 has meant to them and ways to increase participation without ending up with a bunch of guys like MacGruber and Franzia. 😉
Thanks much to Dreamliner and his lovely wife for treating us to some outstanding 2nd F time on Friday night. We look forward to our next visit and invite our F3HamptonRoads brothers to please join us whenever they are down in the City of Oaks.
