13 HIM met for a moist 1st day of August celebrating my 7th F3 anniversary this morning. Dang! I can’t believe it’s been seven years! Several months ago I signed up to Q today and it completely slipped my mind. Maybe I’m just getting old….

Seven years ago, Bluewater convinced me at work to come give F3 a try, he said he’d meet me there in the morning. So I showed up….he didn’t.

Ok, technically he did, he just didn’t know Carpex and South Wake had different workouts, so he went to South Wake, and I went to FWD. You know, the one right down the street from our office. No one there knew who Dale Rose was, and I sure as shit didn’t know anyone’s nickname!

At any rate, all things went well. Slack wasn’t a thing at that time and it took me a surprisingly long time to learn there was a sign-up sheet for Q’s, or that you could just look at it to see who was leading what workouts. We’ve come a long way in 7 years!

On to the workout!
No FNG’s, so YHC completed a very abbreviated disclaimer and we headed to the large Koka Booth parking lot for a standard warmup and light stretching before heading to the rock pile at the far end of the lot.

The Thang:
Partner up, and grab an ego rock. Partner 1 does each exercise AMRAP while the partner runs a pickle.
Rows
Curls
Overhead Press
Triceps Extension
Then put it all together for Rock Your Body.

Once we completed that round, we did a rapid fire set of Mary and repeated the sets using a slightly shorter pickle route. After dropping the rocks we headed back with two stops along the way for more Mary.

Thanks again for coming out to help celebrate this milestone. We never know the impact we are having on other pax. We show up, and we lift up.

Announcements:
Hermes had them all: Cleaver run Aug 10th, Golf Tournament coming up, some other stuff.

MIAGD, fellas!
