Mosey back to COT for a bit of Mary. Maybe…or maybe we were at time.

YHC is always learning at these workouts. Today, I learned that none of the pax had any idea of the name of the closes galaxy outside of our own Milky Way. I also learned that you can’t talk about a manhole cover in a group of all men without there being some confusion on what is meant by that.

Great work by all men. So thankful to be a part of this F3 thing.

Crazy 21s

WARMUP: it’s minnow pond. So, no

THE THANG:
Fast pace 3.75ish miles stopping to do Super 21s.

That’s 1 merkin, 1 squat, 2 merkins, 2 squats, etc. up to 21 merkins, 21 squats. 231 total reps: n(n-1)/2 is the formula if you want it.

Did this back in 2019 https://f3thefort.com/2019/12/19/super-21s-at-minnow-pond/ it sucked then too.

MARY: a little with the 45 seconds remaining when we returned to COT

NMM: listen, every man that posted today is already trying. Sometimes it’s not enough just to try. We have to find ways to be better. Maybe that’s working with more intensity, maybe that’s eating better, maybe that’s resting smarter, maybe that’s speaking kindly to your children… but whatever it is, if you’re already trying and you need better, find a way.

It’s 2025, MEN of The Fort it is time to thrive
