VSF firmly planted in frozen concrete at Crabtree Valley Mall for the PAX of 23 at this week’s Flood Zone. YHC put together a set inspired by Charlotte F3ers Blue (non-stop action) and Hitman (music) who lead memorable workouts at F3 Nation’s original Wednesday morning workout Gamucci. My first post @ Cherokee left me in the most pain and got me started, but my first post at Gamucci was lead by Blue who showed how me how far there was to go. Entertainment was provided this morning as the PAX got to to roll back in time a little. There’s no easing into the weekend at this site, today was no different.
