It was a beautiful day in the neighborhood and everyone came to play this morning. As always, Emoji was full of life and ready to fire up the troops from the opening moments. The PAX was surprised to see Mudface roll in at 5:29 am and be able participate in the initial mosey around the campus.

The SSHs during the COP got a little out of control. Spit decided to start moving around and that kickstarted a kind of SSH revolution of insanity. The PAX was running into one another, attacking one another and some even headed into the woods. Rumor has it that Emoji has taken a dump (or more) in the woods over the years but there was no evidence discovered during the SSH insanity.

The COP got a little awkward as Spit got a little too close to Mudface. YHC wondered if some names should be changed… to include Spitface or Mudspit or something else…

The “little hike” brought the mumblechatter to a halt and the PAX got to work. Spit and Rounders paced the team but every man fought through the entire thing. Pinkie arrived somewhere in the middle and joined the party.

The final exercises yielded some vomit-inducing fumes from Rounders. He shared that he ate something like a pound of pork sausage last night. Mudface seemed interested in the recipe and gravitated toward the green mist that was surrounded Rounders. Once again, talk of Emoji’s antics in the woods surfaced in the mumblechatter.

There was a lot of laughter this morning. YHC needed that laughter. He has missed a lot of workouts in 2019 and he is looking to get back into the stream of the F3 greatness. As Spit said well in the final moments, “This is more than a workout. We are a brotherhood and we are here for one another.” We all need to hear that and, more importantly, live it out! Let’s keep this rolling, F3RVA!!

  1. Great Q Carpenter. Not sure the last time I had that much fun at a F3 workout! Like you I need that this week.

    Glad to have Rounders back out as a regular.

  2. I felt back at home this morning. It is good to be alive when we are running around like a bunch of crazy fools in the GLOOM!!
