Naked Moleskin:
– Great job today by Honey Bee in his first Q and all the pax did a fantastic job on a warm (finally) morning.
– The “little friends” were a great addition to the workout. All the pax loved carrying an extra 15 to 20 pounds around during the workout.
– Honey Bee’s Rock-O-Rama was a big #crowdpleaser as not a lot of chatter amongst the pax.
– Pax were also very quiet during the Jacob’s Ladder and Bearkin crawls. Silent Pax = Hardworking Pax. Great job guys.
– T-claps to Rickshaw who was near the front on all the running and really did a great job throughout the workout. It’s great to see the next generation of F3 at these workouts.
Announcements:
– Lots of new Charlotte South workouts – Bagpipe, Hydra, Strip Maul. Check weekly email for more details.
– Rookie Day May 20 at Base Camp so headlock any guys that are new to working out or just bootcamp style workouts. #F3growing
– Summer GORUCK on August 2. This will be a custom F3 event and will be a most definite #crowdpleaser. Imagine Jack Webb in a bikini this summer? #Scary
– Check out website for details on Memorial Day Convergence at The Patriot Charities event. Lets get a strong F3 showing there.
– Continue to pray for Matlock’s daughter who is having a very difficult time. Be in prayer for the entire family during this difficult time.
All I got brothers. Aye!
