The 5 core principles of F3 on display across the RVA region today as #HIMs decided to wake up and take the DRP. It was one of those mornings as a Q that you know there is a VERY real possibility that not a single pax may show up as driving rains from a named tropical storm passing right over the area at launch time. Yet on the other hand, it is one of the those mornings as a Q that you know the mission of F3 is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the…

9 veterans played ultimate. Some wore cleats. Labrat switched sides to try and make it more even, but Team Bodos maintained the lead. OK, it was really just Bodos on FIRE. Handshake likes bobbling and bouncing catches – yet somehow made it work. Labrat got fired up toward the end and pulled out some awesome defensive slapdowns. Lighthouse had never played before, but caught on quickly. Kudos to Atilla and Honeydo on some excellent end zone snatches. Greenbow doesn’t like organized sports, but still enjoyed the workout. Most of us did 10 merkins for every touchdown – GomerPile did more.…
