Devo: YHC took a minute a spoke on the passing of my grandmother on New Years Day.  Never miss an opportunity to say Goodbye to someone you love and let them know how much you love them.  Tomorrow is not guaranteed.  She celebrated her 88th birthday on Monday and by Wednesday evening she was gone.  Don’t take tomorrow for granted.

Moleskin:   This was a fun one.  That PAX quickly figured out how to apply the brakes on that slide.  That thing would launch a little kid in the air.  Might be fun to watch at the anniversary party.  I would nominate my kid but I can’t swing the doctor bills after he is sent into orbit.  Shortcake joined us again and was like he never missed a beat.  Great work fellas.  Thanks for letting me lead.

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.

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: 61 degrees, looks like winter is finally gone!

The Thang: 24 PAX got after it on various routes, modes of transportation/exercise and some for just coffee. Plus a dog. No, it wasn’t Dog Balls.

Moleskin:  Great turnout. Could have been 25 if DT got off his ass and actually showed up to something he HC’d to. Plenty of laughs at his expense, but it was glaringly obvious that Shortcake missed him. Even Sakrete’s dog Charlie got out of bed for some 2nd F.

Great to see plenty of PAX either running, rucking or riding this morning.

Conditions: 60 degrees and a shower of pollen

The Thang: 15 PAX showed up, including 1 FNG,  got miles and drank coffee. One came only for the coffee and it wasn’t DT.

Moleskin:  Nice turnout with only a handful of HC’s. Unfortunately, some of the HC’s decided to fartsack – y’all were missed. Welcome FNG Fortnite – Ben Johnson (Professor’s grandson) and safe travels back to Michigan.

Tinker was out there getting some rucking miles and brought one of the coolest dogs around – Sarge!

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.

Conditions: high 50s and breezy

FNG: They were too scared to show up.

Warm-up: Dropping a deuce at the Speedway.

The Thang: Men gathered. Men used their legs to get from point A to point B and back to point A. Some did it on a bike. Some did it until a weighted backback. Some went from their car to Starbucks and back to their car.

Moleskin: The paper kind are about $15-$20 on Amazon. The foot padding kind are about $5-$10, also on Amazon.

Devo: Cherish your wives. Pour into them (if you’re mind is in the gutter, it’s ok, that’s Biblical between a husband and his wife.) Treat them like you did when you were trying to date them. Spend the same time and effort keeping her as you did when you were trying to get her.

Here are the resources I mentioned:

Conditions: 50 degrees

The Thang: 15 PAX set out to get one thing accomplished, miles!

Moleskin:  Great turnout with only 4 HC’s. Miles were had, by way of either rucking or running. Great to see Shortcake and Rabbit Ears back in the gloom!

T-Claps to Flanders who while running a 6 miler stated the most he has ran in a long time was 1 mile. Dude crushed it!
