NMM
What an honor to spend our mornings with men aiming high to be better than yesterday. Because of F3, I know more leaders in Fort Mill than all of our local, state, and country governance. My kids assume all dads do F3. They assume all dads volunteer in their community and challenge themselves to be stronger mentally, physically, and spiritually. They think every dad gets up early to do hard things. They assume all dads carry the bags on vacation and have funny nicknames. And in a world where I want my kids to know the truth, this is one fact I hide from them – not all men are as awesome as F3 The Fort PAX. So when you see them, let’s keep the facade going that all men are great leaders. After all, if they watch you, they’ll assume all dads have great friends that do great things. You men give me something to strive for every day.

Thank you.

Super sunrise

5 was the count at Ballroom this morning for a little light pole palooza. We hit chest, back, legs, arms, and abs with plenty of mumble chatter mixed in.

Cold morning, but the work still got done. Even while nursing the Achilles, we found a way to break a sweat and keep moving forward.

Bonus points for one heck of a sunrise to kick off the day.
