Whoah, 13* was a bold kick in the retreated crotch this am.  10 PAX made the right choice and took the RedPill this am to be there for their brothers.  YHC was a bit nervous at 05:25:30 when it was an empty lot but thankfully, the cavalry finally arrived.  Some quick paperwork at 05:28 and mosey over to pick up Veg and Dr. Smartt.

 

Mosey down to soccer field and track where the day’s Evolutions would take place.  Take a lap around the track with some side shuffles, butt kickers and high knees.  Circle up at mid-field.

Thang:

APFT consisting of 2 mins max Merkins, 2 mins max Big Boy Sit Ups, 2 mile run.

After Merkins and BBSU, we did some more calisthenics and movements so no one pulled anything.

As we got back to the start line YHC realized timing had hit the fan so we would do 6 laps instead of 8 and multiply out those times for the 2 mile score.

Time.

NM: it is days like today that make us better, not necessarily physically but mentally.  Glad that today wasn’t going to be a solo Q ala Bad Boy several weeks back.  Part of the beauty of F3 is posting for that other HIM…such a different world view than most employ.  With the cold weather, YHC wanted to make sure we got plenty of loosening and warming up in, hopefully as the year progresses and weather turns we won’t be rushed and will be able to do more after the APFT.  Blue Mule and I came to the conclusion that having a heavier partner or at least one that is pretty close in weight is helpful when anchoring on the BBSU.

BH: continue to lift up those brothers who are going through this season having recently lost loved ones.  Also, think about someone you haven’t seen in a while and reach out to him, CCR and I amongst others, have all the PAX contact info if you need help.
