Ah Agoge…. That training ground for warriors located on the campus of SEBTS. 8 PAX eagerly arrived at the VSF to start their week off right. Curiously missing were the brothers “hair”, and Chong. Apparently where ever Chong was, he was 90% sure to be “there.” Following a weak disclaimer with short pants and short sleeves in tow, we were off on a jog towards the quad.

- When we post to our first F3 workout, the PAX give us a nickname. That moniker just represents who we are in the gloom. As the PAX depart, they resume life as normal and their real name. What the PAX do in the gloom, makes the PAX better at the real world. Genesis 32 tells of the first F3 workout, before F3 was F3. Jacob wrestles with the Angel in the gloom. No matter the pain that the Angel inflicted upon Jacob, he continued to fight not giving in until the Angel blessed him. Finally the Angel, blessed Jacob with a name change. Jacob, which means “grabber” or “supplanter,” became Israel, “he who struggles with God.” The rest is history. We struggle, not quitting or leaving a brother behind, through the workouts, only to bond together in the end knowing that we finished together. Go after life in the same way. Behold your families, friends, jobs, and strangers, and make others the most important things in life aside from God. We are on this journey together!! Aye!!!
