YHC has said lots of stupid things and needs to control his tongue (and I’m sure I’m going to continue to say things I regret but YHC will give a valiant effort to use curse words in moderation at least).

Moleskin: Being that this is a silent workout, it certainly deviates from the normal gloom atmosphere; however, I’m sure we can all say that the meaning behind this workout speaks louder than words. Thank each and everyone of you HIMs who attended and stayed behind for some delicious grub prepared by our brothers Hospice, Stalker and Maj. Dad! Living as He intended, in community!

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.

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: 59 degrees, foggy

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.

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: 54 degrees, visibility of .001 miles due to fog

The Thang: 19 PAX showed up, got miles by either legs or bike and drank coffee. Would have been nice to hit 20……Thanks Sakrete 🙁

Moleskin:

  • Sakrete’s HC at 12:30 a.m. the day of would have made the PAX count 20, but he (for once!) made the smarter decision when the room started spinning and avoided a DWI. Just another fartkrete!
  • The fog was heavy and visibility was low, but Pretzel, Major Dad and Redo were troopers and got miles in on the bike!
  • No one fell today.
  • Peg, Floppy, Wee Woo and I got lost. Looking on the map after the run though, it looks like in the future there will be many more routes for us….hopefully!
  • No creatures were sighted that were spoken about.
  • Reynolds came for coffee. His foot has been bothering him since the GORUCK Light on the 16th. Prayers for healing!
  • Shortcake wasn’t there and neither was DT.

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

Conditions: 48 degrees FNGs: None

COP: SSH, TTT, LBAC, Don Quiote, Terrible Ts

The Thang:

With work taking Goose out of state for a while, YHC felt it appropriate to honor Seismic’s original AO Q with three stations representing three memorable Goose Qs. Split the PAX into three groups and rotate stations.

Station 1: 100 Log Get-Ups Partner up and grab a log. Complete 10 Log Get-Ups and 10 Log Sit-Ups. Rinse and repeat until time to switch. This one is to honor one time I was paired with Goose and he was Qing. He had us do 10 rounds of 10 log Get-Ups and 10 Log Sit-Ups. We were the only pair that finished them all that day. I knew as soon as I was partnered with Goose that I was going to be doing all 100 of them.

Station 2: The Standard Pull-Ups until fail, Push-Ups (as many as possible in two minutes), Sit-Ups (as many as possible in two minutes. Shuttle Run. Honors Goose taking us through military standard training for Push-Ups, Sit-Ups, and Pull-Ups, and then running the Shuttle Run with sand bags. Too bad I didn’t think ahead to have him bring the sand bags.

Station 3: The Brick Run Half-mile run with two bricks. This was part of my second F3 bootcamp and my first Goose Q. The entire workout we had two bricks in our hand.

Mary: Goose led Seal Sit-Ups

Numberama, Namerama, Announcements, Pledge, COT

Devo: From Joshua 1. Goose has been a great leader for the region and the AO. This is one of my favorite passages for leadership in the Bible as God commands Joshua again and again to be “strong and courageous.”

Moleskin: The PAX showed up to tell Goose so long until next time. As work takes Goose away from us for several months, Jingles shared some thoughts about the man Goose is and the impact Goose has had on him. Goose has been a positive influence on many of us. I’m sure when he returns he will have a massive beat down in store for us. Until next time budy…
