The first year I did F3, Cosmo brought a coupon for each hand for me to carry with me throughout the beatdown. I pledged to always Q on my birthday…and for the last 3 years I’ve made that a reality. I originally had 4 sets planned for this morning, but it turns out that the exercises I found in a magazine (sup Logger) were WAY HARDER than they looked. On the 304th day of the year, Nomad raked in his 250th post in 2020 #T-CLAPS & Clancy pointed out that even though he had to leave in the middle of his first F3 post (which YHC was the Q), he made it through the whole beatdown today #T-CLAPS
Clancy’s message really hit home for YHC. I started F3 at a time in my life where I would come home from work and lie on the floor and let me kids crawl on me because I did not have enough energy to actually play with them. Three and a half years later I am down 30+ lbs, I run Spartan races for fun, and I am the dad that is outside playing with my kids so much that all of the neighborhood kids come over to play. Thanks to all of you for pushing me, holding me accountable, and being my friend.
F3 Fall Retreat is next weekend, please pay Nomad to secure your spot. Teddy Bear will be starting a cold winter gear order soon, so save up for your AO-specific hoodie or 1/4 zip. Tomorrow F3 Dads is sponsoring our ruck – so bring kids, candy, and costume and meet us at the hill at 0700.
Until next time,
