Late October is starting to bring in the brisk temperatures… perfect for an early morning workout at Calvary Church.

COT
Moleskin:
- As the men arrived at Anvil, you could feel the buzz this morning. The suspense was killing the pax to know what the big announcement was. Well, not really…but I’m sure a few were curious. They would find out later.
- Quiet group during the COP…burpees tend to have that effect on the pax.
- YHC finally has perfected execution of the Triple nickel – this has become a staple at Anvil. Seems simple enough, but my simple mind had a hard time figuring out where the triple and the nickel were. Sorry guys…a little slow on the uptake, it only took me three times to get it right.
- Great job by all the pax out there today! It is always an honor to lead this group of men. What makes me even more proud is to hand off leadership to one of Anvil’s own emerging leaders in Mermaid. I know this site is in good hands with him and Young Love, ensuring that it continues to fulfill the mission of F3 by serving the men of Anvil and continue to invigorate male community leadership!
