Cards & Corners: The Golden Buffet

Leave a comment

This morning we split into two teams and raced from opposite corners, meeting in the middle after each card to pass a stone down the line – a reminder that even in competition, we’re still connected. The stone didn’t care who was winning; it demanded we work together, person to person, before heading back to battle.
Then we switched it up. Each PAX got to choose their own combination – exercise and travel method – building their own personal challenge. Some chose wisely, some chose pain, but everyone chose to show up and push through it.
That’s the thing about F3. We compete, we choose our hard, we suffer together, and somehow we leave better than we came. The parking lot at Golden Corral isn’t special, the exercises aren’t revolutionary – but the men who post in the gloom? That’s what makes this different.
Iron sharpens iron. Well done today, men
