Cousin Eddie’s 1st F3 anniversary – A day of gratitude


Cousin Eddie’s 1st F3 anniversary – A day of gratitude 

 

I showed up early to warm up a little due to the much cooler temperatures and to go over the beatdown I had planned in my head. The police officer in his cruiser was probably thinking who is this stupid ass stretching and running circles around the parking lot. After about ten minutes, I was saved by Fescue pulling in and shortly after the rest of the cars pulled in.

 

5:30 Let the fun begin.

 

Mosey around the parking lot. Butt kickers, high knees, and carioca mixed in. Circle up for warm-o-Rama.

Glad to see Swing state, Bagboy, and Hat trick who were some of guys responsible for naming yours truly with Cousin Eddie.

 

Thank you to the 10 men who showed up to support me on my one year anniversary in F3. But my thanks doesn’t stop there, I would like to thank every PAX member I have had the pleasure of working out with this past year. I completed my 239th work out since starting F3 and 199th of this year; however, some backblasts weren’t entered but who is keeping track. You have dealt with me for 42 Q's now. I’m proud to say that I’m a better version of myself because of this group. I’ve lost 21.2 pounds, am a better husband, father, son, and leader. This group has helped me de-stress and be a better communicator. Lastly this group has helped me to improve upon my mental health. 

 

Until we see each other again in the gloom, probably tomorrow, it’s been a pleasure this past year,

Cousin Eddie
