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.

Conditions: brilliant
FNGs: none
Two ruckers, sophia and stringbean, continue to prepare for HTL by showing up too early to move too much weight
The Thang:
We ran the loop. YHC increased his pace due to bubbleguts 1/2 mile in. YHC managed to keep up with Urkel and talk about feelings and what not to try and make it back to the municipal building to dispose of whatever was attacking his innards. it needed to get out and my negative splits were glorious. YHC asked Urkel to cover the rest of the workout, as YHC was unsure of just how long it would take. it seemed like a lot all at once. The good news is at 0545 while everyone else was gathering at the flag, YHC walked relieved to the flag to finish his Q duties.

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.

Devo:
When you ask what people think of when they here the word Father. Depending on the relationship people have with their own father will result in a positive or negative description. If we want to be a Father to our children as God is a Father to us, we must communicate intentionally with our children and set time aside to set the example for our family.
Moleskin: The Pre-Blast indicated a plan of the “Hateful Eight”. During the “warm up”, YHC indicated the plan to perform Burpees as part of the “Hateful Eight.” The mumble chatter was a show that most did not realize today was April Fool’s Day as YHC would never bring Burpees to a running AO, so we ran. The run was longer for some as a search team was assembled to look for missing car keys for Fanta, unfortunately, the search was negative and Fanta was forced to walk home.

Devo: YHC talked about how God puts scriptures in front of us sometimes and it is not always clear why. YHC talked about a quote and scripture the he read this morning that was made very clear after running with the FNG. The quote by an unknown author was “Be Strong. You never know who you are inspiring.” The scripture was Philippians 2:4-Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others.
YHC talked about how as the last few days wind down on the job, coworkers are coming up and mentioning how inspiring it has been to them to hear about the workouts and the events YHC has done with most of you all weirdos. F3 and YHC have gotten people off the couch and into a different mindset, just by being around it. Awesome. But more importantly, YHC had to opportunity and privilege to run with the FNG and when and if you are lucky enough, YHC hopes you hear his story of inspiration. His spirit, faith and resilience is truly remarkable. Thank you Inspector Gadget for coming out and inspiring YHC on this chilly morning.
Moleskin: Mr. Kiser has had so many surgeries and body part replaced, it only seemed fitting that we name him Inspector Gadget. Remember, we are a simple folk around here!
Welcome Inspector Gadget (respect).

Loaded up two tires and headed over to the field. Broke up into groups of two. One group pulled the truck and pushed it back and swapped positions. The other two groups did step up with the tires, took turns flipping the tire back and forth, and lbfc’s. We did that until all groups took a turn. We did some more step ups and headed back to the flag.

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.

I decided to shake things up a bit from my first couple of Q’s. No strongman workouts today. However, I do believe the pain was brought as evidenced by the evil stares and mumble chatter at the end.
