Recover, Recover

Moleskin:

It was great to start my b-day with my F3 brothers in the gloom. Baller took home the Kenny Rogers award by being the first to finish/win the hand of Blackjack. Ultraman was “under the weather” yesterday, but knew that the only cure was more kettlebell, so he showed today for his dose of pain. Toxic brought his lead pipe (just to show off). Tammy Faye and Tuffy got to still do some running at a bootcamp AO. Both are solid dudes and YHC always likes posting with them. Bob Ross helped YHC keep cadence (and always crushes the workout). Out Cold and Ping are both Qing studs now and could’ve easily taken over today, but showed mercy and didn’t. Topgun rolled in this morning in style with his hair blowing in the wind via the convertible. Frogger called an audible when needed to avoid further injury. Glad you still make it a point to show up bro. Talking Heads was waiting to do a real workout like running stairs or something because Firemen are hard chargers. Detox quietly devoured the workout today and could’ve easily done more reps. Titan was Titan as usual. Good to see him at boot camps again. We missed his spirit and it’s back! Amen worked his keg pack ab and also shared the big KB with YHC during Blackjack. Way to push it today bro. You’ve been killing it lately! He also got in some J-Lo so it made for a Good Friday. Frontier was present and accounted for, but had to leave a little early to go hop on a plane for a business meeting (because he apparently has an important job or something). Glad he was able to join us for part of the pain though. Thanks for coming out gents. You made turning 47 a little easier!


COT/Announcements/Prayer/Coffeteeria:

-Blackbeard (injury recovery and work)

-Unspoken prayer requests among F3.

-Remember Pax who have aging parents who are struggling with caregiving and/or health issues (Ultraman, The Force, etc.).

-MQ’s need some Q’s for AO’s. Please consider signing up on the calendar. If you haven’t Q’d before, we will help Co-Q, so don’t be intimidated by it. You can do it! Just let us know and ask.

 

Until next time…
