  1. Great backblast! Thanks for the great time. I smell a Mule coming up.

  2. Talk Box

    That was the best Saturday morning I’ve had in years and years. I can’t wait or the next event. Thanks to Dredd and OBT!

  3. Skipper

    T-Claps to Haskell who was responsible for 2 of the 3 FNGs. Now you know how he got his name…”Yes Mrs. Cleaver, Wally and Beaver will love the Goat!” Or rather, Klinger and Lucky Charms.

  4. Springfield

    That was a straight up good time. It was awesome getting to meet and sweat with some of you guys that we only read about in backblasts. Looking forward to the next. I was Googling CSAUP today and came up empty so thanks for the clarification.

  5. Thanks OBT. As always.

  6. Gnarly Goat

    For some reason Saturday morning running The Goat I couldn’t shake images of my early Saturday mornings as a kid watching the Bugs Bunny Road Runner Show. The cast of characters and plots were pretty much the same… (Dredd = Foghorn Leghorn tutoring the Chicken Hawk, Moses = Roadrunner, AP getting trampled = Wile E. Coyote getting hit by a train, I myself felt like Sylvester Cat when he got beat to a pulp by a baby kangaroo he thought was a giant mouse, etc, etc. I saw a lot of great athletes out there, and more importantly I saw a lot of men digging deep. Everyone just kept coming back for more beatdown! That’s all we can ask of great cartoon characters! BZ and thanks to all those who led, organized, filmed and endured.

  7. My favorite work out yet (better than Spartan race). Thanks to all the leaders that made it happen and did such a fantastic job organizing and pulling it off

  8. Floppy Disk

    Great backblast OBT! Also thanks to everyone who put in the time and effort to make this great event a reality! I agree 100% it was one of the best (and hardest) times I’ve had in a long long time. So glad to see OBT’s Garmin report saying we covered 12 miles! Now I have confidence I might actually be able to finish the Spartan Beast in Oct before the sun goes down. Can’t wait for the next CSAUP event!

      Forgot to mention my most memorable mental image of the GOAT…130+ guys in the dark at 5:30am SHOUTING out cadence to SSH! Loved the fellowship guys, thanks so much!

  9. The GOAT rocked. Who would have thought something like that could be so much fun?!?! I can’t wait for the next event.

  10. Drive Thru

    WOW. OBT, DREDD and ALL the Q’s that took the time to pull this event together – Thank You 134 times!! That was Awesome!! Who would have thought that getting up at 415am to go run, sweat and workout for 4 hours would have been fun. Sign me up for the next one. D-T

  11. Loved it. Painful, but loved it. Thanks to all who put this together. F3 has been a God-send for me.
