F3 Nashville PAX,
It is with great pleasure that I announce that @Toothless is taking over as F3 Nashville Nantan starting today. He will do a great job.
F3 Nashville’s mission is to plant, grow and serve small men’s workout groups to reinvigorate community leadership in Nashville. We do this through small men’s workout groups organized around 5 core principles: Free, Open to All Men, Meeting Outdoors Rain or Shine, Led in a Rotating Fashion by the Participants, and Ending in a Circle of Trust. Our focus over the last 2 years was to create active, visible leadership after COVID shook up F3 back in 2020. We wanted to create the systems and conditions to allow other guys to step up and lead efforts they were passionate about. Then we wanted to find our replacements and create a virtuous circle of leadership within F3. I believe we have been successful in those goals.
I’m proud of where we are as a group. I’m proud of our 21 weekly workouts and the consistency of the guys coming out to do hard work every day across Nashville. I’m proud of @Skeet and @McAfee’s work to set up F3 in Lebanon and Mt. Juliet. I’m proud of @morning star’s work to jump start a group in Bellevue. I’m excited for the potential of @Sunshine and @Chunks’ work to plant a group in #hendersonville. I’m proud of the consistency of the Eastside guys, Westside guys, and Crieve Hall guys. I’m proud of our convergences and CSAUPs. I’m proud that we have our house in order and are ready to accelerate in 2024.
I’m thankful for what this group has meant to me. F3 came to me at a very important point in my life. It has been a joy to be part of this community for the past 5 or so years and to serve as Nantan for the last 2 years. I’m thankful for all those who served along with me, including @Toothless as weasel shaker, @Black Lung as 1stF Q, @Hipster as 2ndF Q, @Right Said as 3rdF Q, and @McAfee as comz/tech Q. I’m thanking for the 40+ guys who served as AOQs over the last 2 years. I’m thankful to @baggervance, @ccr, and @princessaurora who served as the former Nantan brain trust. I’m thankful to @t-cell for EH’ing me to F3.
This role has been very meaningful to me. But, in the words of @Vector, who gave me the opportunity to succeed him as #bomber AOQ back in the day, you have to leave before you are ready. So its about time then. I’ll be laying low for a minute and then circling back to find a way to be “Freed to Lead” again.
We are in good hands with @Toothless. Glad to see him take this forward.
Onward!
@Michelin Man out.
