It was warmer than expected.  And a strange car pulled into the parking lot.  An FNG – Brett Barker – stepped into the gloom.  A former college athlete, he’d been encouraged by his friends to join the PAX of F3.  Not knowing quite what to expect he came with anticipation and trepidation.  With an FNG present, YHC gave the obligatory disclaimer, then let the PAX into the gloom.

We stepped over to the hill.  We went 1/2 way up backwards and did the Stop Watch x 7.  Go down the hill and do Star Jumps x 15. Go back up and do it again.

NAKED MOLESKIN

Great to have an FNG with us.  With Peak Week and Key West both moving into neighborhood we will start to see some good numbers.  Bret Michaels shared that since starting F3 he’s down 2 sizes in his waist.

New Mexico hasn’t been active for a while, but hit it hard. Good to have you with us, brother.

Christmas Party is coming up, if you haven’t RSVPed contact Slash soon.
