16 PAX including 2 FNGs started their week right at Williams Park. It was a dark and foggy morning in the gloom. A weekend of rain left the fields extremely swampy but YHC was not deterred from using them. With 2 FNGs present, a disclaimer was given and away we went.

Mosey to the field, four cones in a diamond around the shovel flag. Count off by fours and report to your cone. 15 reps of an exercise at each cone, bear crawl to the flag and out to the next cone. Exercises used: Plank jacks, Prisoner Squats, Carolina Dry Docks, Lunge in place. Repeat the circuit again with crab walks between cones.
Jog out to the track, take a leisurely stroll around to get warmed up.

YHC reflected on 6 months of F3. T-Claps to Gnobby for EHing me out into the gloom. As great as the workouts have been, what sticks out is the fellowship with my fellow PAX. It starts in the gloom, but grows at the 2nd and 3rd F events. Get plugged in outside of the workouts. Attend the after work events and build relationships. If you haven’t been to Thirst Quenchers check it out. If the time doesn’t work for you, find some guys and start something else. That’s the model of F3. Hopefully this piece starts to grow like our workouts have. Strong work by all this morning, thanks to Wilson and Man Ram for having me. Spurrier led us out with a great prayer.
