The Daville Takeover has been a lot of fun this week.  YHC has had the opportunity to travel to several AOs that he has either never visited or rarely visited.  The best thing about F3 is this.  When YHC pulled up to Bettie Weaver this morning after a 30 minute drive, he knew everybody.  It felt like home.  And there was no Gumbo, Rosie, or Wilson.  It was awesome as well seeing Viral who rarely post at Bettie Weaver and Offshore who was there for his first time.  Offshore had posted 2 weeks ago at Green Acres.  Way to travel Offshore!

Thank you McRib for guiding YHC throughout the campus.  All PAX members were very patient as YHC tried to figure out what exercises to do where.  YHC had to use several back-up plans when he could not find the required facilities for 8 Minutes of Agony.

At the end of announcements today, YHC asked the SOJ residents when their takeover week was.  It sounded like it might be coming this summer.  Corporate has done it.  Daville has done it.  It time for the SOJ Takeover, the MOM Takeover, and the Far West End Takeover.  Start planning everybody.

Great job today Twin Team!  YHC did have a difficult upper body workout today and all PAX member performed outstanding.  Even during the merkins and burpees around the field, there was very little distance between the first finisher and the last.
