ANNOUNCEMENTS: Read your newsletter

COT:
Praise for health, family, F3. Prayers for family with illness, aging parents, traveling mercies for parents coming to town.

It was another great morning with my F3 brothers. The humidity was high, and so was the effort from the pax (all respectables today!). YHC heard some chatter about whether certain elements were ‘moderate’, but I don’t think anyone present this morning was unhappy about how they felt at the end of the workout. Having 50-plus and 60-year-olds out at 5am each morning, pushing ourselves, should make us all feel proud and extremely blessed. Few would have thought we’d be doing this at our ages! It was a pleasure leading the group today, and I look forward to the next one. Stay young, gentlemen!

Happy days

WARMUP: ssh, windmills, imp walkers, hillbilly walkers and Peter Parkers, all in cadence
THE THANG: a round of 13s – 2 stations were set up a hundred or so feet from each other. Station 1 the pax did merkins and shoulder taps – starting count was one. The pax migrated to station 2 via lieutenant dans, and at station 2 did big boi sit ups and American hammers ( or was it Russian twists, I forget) – starting count was 12. The pax returned to station via a mosey around the parking lot.

The task proved a bit ambitious for us, as we reached 6:00 with a couple of rounds left to go, but at f3, we get paid by the hour, not by the rep, so the effort was honorable

After reminiscing about the old abc wide world of sports, we spent some time brainstorming some good f3 names inspired by IP of our youth. Don’t be surprised if an upcoming fng goes home named something like Danny Zucko, Fonzie, or Grimace.
MARY: negative ghost rider
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: prayers were lifted for vuvu and other pax in attendance
