YHC has been hearing the chatter about Pullen Park / the Forge since I started F3 more than a year ago. Felt it was time to try it out… break the N. Raleigh circuit and head down south for a Q. PAX of 15 showed up. Franzia hyped up the game beforehand. Hope it lived up to expectation. No FNGs… off we went.
Warm-up
Quick jog to the grassy area before the water (I have no idea what any of these places are called)

third set of steps: dips x 10, dirkins x 10, irkins x 10
Mosey over the bridge, up the stairs and to the tennis courts (Franzia had to the lead the way as it was dark and YHC wasn’t familiar with this place)
First tennis court – sleeping homeless man. DO NOT DISTURB… move to second tennis court…

Partner up – size and speed don’t matter
Partner 1 – run the length of the parking lot 1, bear crawl up hill (and down on the return), run the length of parking lot 2 and return
Partner 2 – burpees… flapjack until team does a total of 100. Hurt. Sucked. Arms were killing me. Everyone pushed through and completed.
Mosey to the parking lot at the entrance.

Prayer requests: Orwell thanked everyone for their prayers, Low Pair in Chapel Hill, and men participating in Go Ruck this weekend.
Overdraft took us out with grace. Thank you, sir.
Moleskin:
- Azul pre-rucked solo. You all should be ashamed of yourselves for making him go alone. Nice work, Azul!
- Site Qs – Epoxy was sleeping and Mr Rogers was working on his tan in St. Thomas. Enough said.
- Franzia can maneuver that park in complete darkness. He was like a sherpa on Everest. Even called the sleeping man on the tennis court.
- Glad i made the trip down south. Great group of guys and great venue.
