20 descended to the Gauntlet today. I told the pax they were behind and to push harder – but they finished early and did some EC. I never praised them for it- but they killed it. Deck of Death deployed to finish the ME.

Amazing crew at Jack it Up today! Things are really heating up over at Jack Smith Park with @halmark and @spayed heading the site! Crushing it! Make it a great day men!

What a day to celebrate the GLUE of F3! 30 showed up to get better and to get to know their fellow PAX.

We moseyed around both pickles and warmed up inside the park with a brief recap of yesterday’s topic. Then it was three rounds of GLUEs (Getups, LRstepups, Urkins, E2k) prior to circling back for the headlamps.

Thang 2 was a fellowship partner run to the bridge. We did some partner clap merkins on the way, and some partner WW2s on the way back.

Thang 3 was 2 truths and a lie. If a PAX fooled the crew, we did burpees. If not, the PAX does burpees. Approx 7 rounds, then circle up in Plank. We learned about how a few PAX got their names. French Lick spiked down the opportunity that I didn’t even realized that I had set. So good.

Back to the flag in a slightly asterisky fashion, and that was it.

Special thanks to Oofta for the consult on the content of today’s workout. Culture week rolls on a Point Break tomorrow.

We kicked off Culture Week with the pledge, the mission, the core principles and asked the question “where would we be without those guidelines?” Many culturally minded topics covered, like the history of our region, starting with the Mothership workout; down memory lane to discuss growth in our nation, our region; we reflected on our first workouts, their impact on us, asking “why did we come back for a second workout?” Other topics covered like the Magnet effect, Starfish organization allows all of us, as leaders, to be Freed To Lead. We did some exercises. During VQ lead exercises we drove home the fact that each PAX can take lead on 1stF activities, that he can make old ideas better, or create new 1stF ideas and go for it.

So many topics, so many men, so little time, not the easiest to cram all this together. And although the workout was not long or full of burpee variations and many challenging exercises I do hope the PAX continues to embrace this week’s unique experience where we gather in larger than normal numbers and discuss together the variables that make the Magnet, the Glue and the Dynamite.
