As much of a loud mouth liberal and ungrateful American as I may appear to be, I am extremely grateful for the freedoms enshrined in the constitution that allow me to be so, and so publicly. It’s an honor to recognize the individuals who have served in the military to defend the constitution against enemies both foreign and domestic. Happy Veteran’s Day.

Welcome to the Marine Veteran now known as ODB!

Too much candy

WARMUP: Quick Mosey around HT parking lot to pick up Cubbie who came in hot
THE THANG:
Mosey to the bottom of Grant Farm Drive by the fountain.
11s called where PAX will do 1 squat at the bottom and 10 BBSU at the top entrance to the fire station. There was some confusion as to which side was which as the Q’s instructions may not have been consistent, but we got through it.
Walking 10 count and off to the traffic circle on Stockbridge Dr. The PAX formed a tight circle and did a bearcrawl of pain. 1 PAX bear crawled around the ring while everyone did AMRAP on an exercise that was NOT called by the bear crawler (so you can’t stick anyone with burpees).
Two rounds of that and there was just enough time to trot back to CoT for
MARY:
90 seconds of mary
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Events aplenty, check that newsletter
COT:
Circle of trust was established. What’s on the hearts of the PAX? A prayer for the leadership we attain through F3.

Zombie Survival Training 2024

After a great deal of research it was time to train the PAX in the rules of surviving the zombie apocalypse
WARMUP:
Rule #7 – Limber up
Mosey around the concrete football field
10x Windmill
10x Cherry Picker
THE THANG:
Rule #1 – Cardio
Line up at the end of the painted field. PAX make their way across the field by alternating high knees and butt kickers.
PAX will drop to the ground for 2-count (always double-tap) mountain climbers equal to the count of the yard markers (ladder up to 50 and back down).

Rule #2 – Double Tap
DORA (done in pairs, double, double tap… yeah)
100 squat, 200 merkins, 300 LBC
Partner runs to 40 line and back

Rule #3 – Beware of Bathrooms
Al Gore for 60 seconds

Rule #7 – Travel Light
PAX will shuffle entire length of the painted field.

On the way down they will drop at every length marker for 10 double-count dying cockroach. (to fend off the zombies when they are forced to the ground).
On the way back they will drop to do 10 double-count flutters at every painted length marker.

Rule #17 – Don’t be a Hero
Bear crawl 4 lines (20 marker). Run back to the start adn back to the 20. Then bear crawl 4 lines (40 marker). Back to the start back to 40. Repeat until COT

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Lots of stuff going on. Happy Hour is doing a family 4k. There’s a Christmas party. Bourbon tasting. Convergences on Thanksgiving and Christmas Eve
COT:
Circle of TRUST. Not prayer chain. What’s on our hearts that affects US. We talked about things that affected us, difficulty in our lives that we deal with as men. Revealing truths that, if kept secret, erode our ability to be leaders.
F3 is not a Christian organization but CoT was ended in a prayer by a christian.
