Brothers of F3 Nation, sisters of FIA (and your 2.0s),
This year has seen us show up in increasing numbers and dominate all kinds of CSAUP events. It’s time to think about what events you want to tackle next year, and an event you need to sign up for is the Carolinas BattleFrog on April 25, 2015. Want a shot to take Metro down? This is it…if you can handle it.
BattleFrog is an obstacle race similar to a Spartan race or the USMC Mud Run that was started by former Navy SEALs. I ran this race back in June of this year with about 20 other F3 brothers, and I can personally attest that this is a quality race that will challenge you physically. It’s a great mix of trail running, mud and obstacles that gives you a chance to put all that work in the gloom to use. If you’ve never done a mud run or obstacle race before, this is a great way to jump into the fray.
You can read more about this year’s race here: http://f3nation.com/2014/06/24/battlefrog-csaup-game-of-inches/
F3 Nation’s bunny has placed in several BattleFrog events this year and is now a member of the BattleFrog racing team.
BattleFrog is extending F3 Nation an amazing discount for this event, but you need to act soon to get the best pricing. This race has challenges for all levels with both 15K and 5K options. There’s also a kid’s race that provides your 2.0s a chance to have some fun.

Sound off in the comments below once you’ve registered.
In.
I’m in. But I’m volunteering so I can save a little bit of dough. Excited to race with some f3 brothers!
Buzzsaw and Myself are in from the Lake Murray region.
Registered for 8:30 start time 15k race.
I attempted to register, but did not see the $78.00 price as above. Can you confirm? Otherwise the new fee $93.00 + fees, – with the 15% (discount code) back to $93.00.
Took a look at this. The discount code brings the price down from $93 to $78 ($15 off). Mandatory race insurance and service fee brings price back to $93.37. The $78 price I listed above doesn’t include the insurance and service fee cost. I’ll update the text to make that more clear.
HC. Thinking many may have gotten soft with lack of HC’s on this thread. #RedPill
HC – better late than never – looking forward to the race season.
In and registered! EH has been placed on several other F3Raleigh PAX as well!
Anyone going on Sunday the 26th? Pretty sure my kid will have a baseball game on Sat but he wants to race too (tadpole dash).
I’m in, registered, and paid. Now which bourbon shall I bring to toast our conquest with?
In and paid.
FSL is in. Serious course last year and great fellowship with the crowd we had down there. Haggis?? I need someone to chase this year….
I just got an email stating they are canceling the 15k. Well, you can run the now offered 8K twice or run the 8k and get money back. What is everyone doing? I am not sure I want to run the same course twice, sort of bummed they shortened it up.
My initial thought is to take the 30% refund and use it towards the Spartan Sprint in Fayetteville later this year.
I just made the change to the 8k and get 30% back. I will do the Spartan Beast to complete my Trifecta.
FSL doesn’t need to suffer the same course twice in a row…i’ll probably go with the shortened race – and get some $ back. That’s my vote.
Yeah, I don’t see the point in running the same track twice.
Agree with you Uncle. Not thrilled with this change. Running the same track twice isn’t for me.
Box Jump and myself are also taking the $$ and running the 8K.
Has anyone received any information about our official start time?
We’re running in the 8:30 wave.
Thanks. I’m looking forward to it.
Anyone up for a carpool? Meet at The Vine like usual?
