Bleep: Prisoner Indian Run Russian Roulette Sugar Cookies: 25 Prone Cobras & 25 Hand Release Merkins Al Gore – hugging big tree while in squat position 5 Minutes of Popcorn Mary Pray us out I pray for this country and for all of our citizens and future citizens. I worry about all of the taxation and insurmountable debit that our children, grand children and great grandchildren will be faced with. Our country was founded on a pioneering drive and determination and an entrepreneurial spirit rivaled by no other. This country doesn’t owe anyone anything and if you want it go out and get it. Get up early every morning, work hard and do the right things in life. Teach your children right from wrong, teach your children not to steal and most importantly teach your children that all men are created equal. You control your destiny. You decide who you are, who you will be and how you will be remembered. Make something happen before it’s too late…..before your flame burns out. Signed, Bleep!

QIC: Alright Alright

Warm-o-rama: The PAX were punished with a #SlaughterStarter (20 burpees out of the gate) because Pepper #fartsacked. We followed that up with a #BataanDeathMarch with the PAX at the back doing our usual Warm-o-rama exercises, 5 Side Straddle Hops then 5 Imperial Storm Troopers on the second time around. We ran to the track and found that both gates were closed, so we continued the march to Bishop Blvd. also known as #FakeTrack.

Tha Thang: Sprint to end of first loop, jog back. Carolina Dry Dock x1 Sprint around first loop and back. Carolina Dry Dock x2 Jog around first loop. Carolina Dry Dock x3 Sprint to end of full loop (by the flag pole) and jog back. Carolina Dry Dock x4 Sprint the full loop. Carolina Dry Dock x5 Jog the first loop. Carolina Dry Dock x6 Sprint the first loop. Carolina Dry Dock x7 Sprint to end of first loop, jog back. Quick mosey back to La Madeleine. Naked Man Moleskin: YHC was quite disappointed about the track being closed, and was going to Omaha to Special Sauce’s Racetrack workout until YHC realized that we had an odd number of people. At that point, YHC told the PAX that we were just going to ____ing run. And run we did. Everyone ran between 4 and 5 miles, so it was a good day. Oatmeal asked which PAX would be the first to sport a long sleeve shirt at a workout when the cold front moves in, and told us all that it wouldn’t be Ina. Safe bet. Rumor has it Ina will be back soon, but he will definitely not be wearing long sleeves. Lots of questions about whether the goal was to break Plus One’s #KTT distance record. It was not, but YHC knew that we would be close. We all needed a run after this week’s stationary IPC. Major #kotters to our IPC Week 0 champion, Coach K. It was great to have him back in the fold. And the possibility of his reappearance was enough to convince Oatmeal to host parking lot coffeteria on a non-Tuesday. All of the PAX stuck around for #coffeteria. #tclaps to DFib and Double Pane for coming out to the toughest cardio test that we have each week in F3 Dallas. Both men have really embraced F3 over the past few weeks and they are quickly moving up the imaginary attendance rankings with strong multi-workout weeks, week in and week out. Lots of OGs at the workout today, with at least 5 of us having been with the group since 2017. Special Sauce, I couldn’t remember when you started, was it 2017?

Mosey…. and we’re done.

We ran out of time before getting to complete the rest of Splash’s birthday burpees so the PAX were sent home with homework.

Thank you to Plus One for introducing us to Kraken Burpees.

Aaarrrggghhh reminded me multiple times of my rule of no more than 10 monkey humpers at a time. That was definitely a tough portion of the workout.

Ultra and others gave me a hard time for throwing down that beatdown with an FNG present, but Fair Weather more than held his own.

No complaints about missing Mary because the 300 flutter kicks pretty much covered it.

We’ve now hit double digits 8 days in a row. Let’s keep the streak alive tomorrow.

Circle of Trust: 6 Years is a long time.  I’ve grown a lot in that time.  I’ve gotten stronger and faster, but more importantly, I’ve become a better leader and a better man.  Thank you all for pushing me to improve everyday.

My story is the same as almost all of our F3 brothers.  The Fitness was the magnet that brought me in.  The Fellowship is the glue that won’t let me get away.  The Faith (a belief in something greater than myself) is the dynamite that will allow us to have an impact on the community around us.  This is where our focus needs to be.  We must do a better job of having a positive impact on the city that we all love.  That starts with growing our forces.  We can change Dallas, Texas and the United States one man at a time.  It is time for us to start taking this responsibility and OPPORTUNITY seriously.  Give it away. Now.
