25 PAX gathered at Impromptu to help raise money for F3Carterico and their great cause to help their local community after Hurricane Flo. Kudos to Zinfandel who was the #DancingIdiot and Rudy who was the #1stFollower in a last minute push to get our area PAX to run laps for something more than just bragging rights . . . This time, the PAX ran hard so we could make those who pledged $/lap, to really feel the pain of a late-night drunken decision to pledge.
WARMUP
- Pretty cool to roll into the parking lot and see 4-5 shovelflags and all the PAX dressed in Red (albeit YHC’s red shirt was
smelling like Doughboy’s gloves in the laundry so red shorts would have to do)

MOLESKINE
- It was a SMOKER today; the course didn’t have an easy section
- YHC kept thinking of how HalfBack got 5 laps in last time . . . Impressive but where were you today?
- I would say the course won BUT the obvious winner was F3 and the community
- F3 Carterico:
- Over $2,000 was raised and the number is still climbing
- Excited to see additional videos of the impact they are making in that community . . . Well done fellas!
- You can still donate; check out their website: https://www.gofundme.com/f3carterico-hurricane-relief
- F3 Western Union:
- 25 guys showed up but others who couldn’t even make it still donated
- Great to see SO MANY different guys stepping up in different ways . . . Proud to be a part of this group #Sappy
- Great work by Dasher pulling everybody along this morning
- Nice work by Fuse Box shaking off the ghost of Moneyball and getting to 4 laps
despite substituting lunge walks
- The number of PAX who got to 4 laps is very impressive (14 out of 25)
- Awesome to see some of the newer/Kotters/injured/2.0 PAX still pushing to complete the next station . . . #LotOfHeavyBreathing
- Thanks to those who brought out the speakers to have at the different stations . . . Special shout out to that
terrible music by the burpees
- Great to see Radar . . . SANTA!
