The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions: Sunny Mid 80’s

FNGs: any FNGs

COP:  Side Straddle Hops (IC) , Little Baby Arm Circle (Forward and Reverse IC)

The Thang:

Case Quarter Corners / $5 Cash Out

Four corners were set up with their respective exercises (‘Mericans, Squats, Calf Raises, Big Boy Sit Ups). Each station was good for 25 reps. (25 cents). The goal is to earn $5.00. Each route to the next station consisted of a transition exercise (Crab Crawl, Bear Crawl, Lunge Walk, Walk Lunge) you could. You could bypass the transition exercise by cutting through the middle, but it would cost you a 60 second plank hold in the center.

Mary: Flutter Kicks and Swim With the Sharks

Numberama: 3

Namerama: Bull, Bedpan, Bobble Head

Pledge and COT

Announcements: Labor Day convergence; Hole opening, Changing of the Guard at the Den, Goose Creek Christmas Parade

Devo: Although we all started with the same goal in our workout, how we chose to achieve that goal was very different from person to person. In life, we are often times trying to achieve the same thing as our Brother, but it’s ok that we take different paths. It’s ok that we do different things to achieve those goals. It’s ok to think you can bypass some of the work, just realize that it may cost you some time. It ok to all work for the same thing in different ways. Be careful not to judge where someone is or what they are doing on the way to their goals.

Moleskin:   As this was my first Q, I wasn’t sure that the goal set was obtainable. That’s ok – set those goal anyway.

DT was there and even Shortcake showed up!

The Thang: 12 PAX got miles in by way of feet. Some ran, others rucked and one showed up for coffee and cash.

Welcome FNG Steve Gilmer. Great EH by Hollywood while he was preparing for an open house. There were many names that he could have been called, but Steve is now known as Gypsy!

DT can’t seem to get out of his own way, again. He has mastered the art of not showing up when he HC’s……

The mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.

Conditions: High 50’s and clear 

FNGs:  Not today

COP:  Stretch while fist bumping other PAX

The Thang:

Run, ruck, ride or show up for coffee.  Get what you came to get. 

Mary: Not working that I know of but Toya was there.  She’s great. 

Numberama: 15 and this includes, like every other F3 event recently, no Double Trouble 

Namerama: Splinter, Flanders, One Bar, Bubble Head (Respect), Stringbean, Shrute, High Stick, Muscadine, Placebo (Respect), Repo, Professor Klump (Respect), Android, Bueller, Shortcake, Sakrete

Pledge and COT Completed 

Devo:  Leave that to the professionals on Sunday.  Shortcake closed us in prayer.

Moleskin:  14 guys showed up to get miles of some sort.  3 were on wheels.  11 were on foot.  Shortcake joined us for coffee.  He shared a praise report that is farm is kicking ass and taking names.  Android brought his dog as did Stringbean.  YHC saw a deer while running.  He was moving very fast.  He didn’t stick around long enough to get named as an FNG so lets just call it deer.    We, however, did not see Double Trouble.  Some of you newer guys probably don’t even know who he is.  Well Double Trouble has been a member of F3 Summerville for a very very long time.  He is very active on FB.  His name is Randy Stewart.  He has accomplished a lot of things from being an Ironman, multiple marathons, and even some Rucking events.  Recently though his excuses have been stronger than his desire to get in the gloom.  It would be cool if he would come out again but it just doesn’t seem like that is something he wants to do currently.  Keep EHing him men.  Maybe it will work.  

Is it in Neutral? Do you have the parking brake on?

Mission:  F3’s mission is to plant small workout groups that are free of charge to all men.   We improve fitness and leadership in the community through regular scheduled workout groups where participants rotate leadership.

Conditions: 45 degrees, cold

The Thang: 30, I repeat 30!,  PAX showed up to The Creamer to either run, ruck, ride or just for coffee.

Moleskin:  For some reason whenever it is cold out, the PAX tend to order coffee and sit outside. I have still yet to figure this one out, but that is for another day.

The return of Shortcake and DHL brought all the boys to The Creamer – sorry Cheetah! It was great to have these two guys back out after a long hiatus.

Happy 39th birthday to Bedrock’s own Benefits!

Many prayers request were spoken as well as many praise requests. T-Claps to Too Much for taking us home in the BOM.

The Thang: 18 PAX took to the mean streets of Nexton and battled the fog/pollen all while getting their desired miles. Some rucked (tied together), others ran and one rode.

Moleskin:  Plenty of memorable moments and quotes all while sitting around and drinking hot coffee.

  • “Yo Hot Tub, the center of my left knee cap hurts when my foot hits the pavement.” – Sakrete- This brought laughter from everyone who heard and a shaking of the head from Hot Tub.
  • “I don’t know if a bear shits in the woods, but an Old Flame does”. – Old Flame upon arriving back to Starbucks down a shirt due to dropping a cannoli.
