Q: Grape
PAX: Strutter, Focker, Spinal Tap, Natural Ice, Freakonomics, bluemule, Patty, Salami, caprate, Old Maid
FNGs: None
COUNT: 11
CONDITIONS: wonderful, especially with the sounds of Freddie Mercury in the background

WARMUP: 52 SSH, 13 LBAC F, 13 LBAC R, 13 OH Press, 13 Seal Claps, mosey to the bottom of the stairs

Aces and faces- stair run with a burpee
Hearts- Merkins
Spades- squats
Clubs- WW1’s
Diamonds- Dry docks

MOLESKINE: do you guys remember doing anything other than running the stairs? I don’t feel like my body even registered doing any merkins or squats. Agreed with the positive feedback that having some stationary work provides for good mumble chatter. Even though my knee really hurt by the end, was able to finish strong thanks to being pushed by some of y’all. Good work out there.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: check slack, things seem a little slow?

COT: Patty is getting married on 9/8, prayers for his friend Tom, Salami is one step closer to selling his place in Cali, Natty and Spinal Tap are starting a men’s Bible study…and I may have missed one more

Tortoise & Hare, Episode 3 of 6

AO: thestronghold
Q: Red Skull
PAX: Decaf, Young and Restless, bluemule, Chunks, hambone, Focker, Natural Ice, Michelin Man, Longhorn, Judy, Right Said, Crawlspace, SalPal (retired), Speed Walker, Baby Boy, Light Weight, Five Points, Temper Tantrum, Unc, Tampax, Skid Mark, Long Way, Trajectory
FNGs: None
COUNT: 24
CONDITIONS: 73 degrees, low humidity, beautiful sunrise – a perfect day for a run.

WARMUP: Assign PAX to their pace groups and begin the standard warmup – SSH, Squats, HBWs, Stretches

THE THANG: Every man was assigned a group to run with. It was the task of each man to stay with the assigned group. Doing so would ensure a Personal Record time for every 4:13 Strong man. Four were successful, six could not do it.

Congrats to Speed Walker (25:49), Five Points (26.23), Baby Boy (26:27) and Temper Tantrum (28:58).

Thank you to all of my Pacers for setting and holding the bar.

MOLESKINE: The 4:13 Strong men are in week 4. This has traditionally been the hardest week of the 40 Day, not because we do anything different, but because the men become comfortable and over confident. Please keep the 4:13 Strong men in your prayers this week…they all need it!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Signing Day for this class will be Friday 8/30 at 11:30am. Join us, help celebrate what our men have accomplished and enjoy a delicious lunch of Hot Chicken with Mac & Cheese.

COT: Prayers for strength, healing and endurance.

Thank you for rolling out the red carpet for me the last several weeks that I have been with y’all!! I have enjoyed every AO, every workout, every conversation and every playlist…well there was actually only one that wasn’t my cup of tea but I digress!! F3Nash has everything a pac could ever ask for woth a perfect mix of beat down, camaraderie and banter mixed in to make it spicy! I leave you with this thought “WHO ELSE NEEDS THIS”. Our mission is to grow and the “why behind grow” is the fact that there are men all around us who need this and don’t even know it!! You have something special and my challenge to on you is to keep looking for those who need what F3Nash has to offer!! :heart_hands: Cal Worthington
