COT
Moleskine:
Enthusiastic group today for a special Father’s Day edition of F3 Dads. Special crowd pleaser of the day were the “Dads” push-ups with Dad’s pushing up 1+ kids on at least 3 exercises. Clearly some good week-over-week progress with several kids showing their prowess in Sharks vs. Minnows – I think a few minnows even escaped today. Animal races were clearly a winner yet again, and (with ample water breaks) everyone did well in the whistle-driven circuits on the baseball diamond. Fun ( and sweat) were had by all.
It’s always an honor to be able to lead the fine 2.0s of the F3 PAX, and really appreciate the opportunity to lead F3 Dads for this special weekend. Thanks to Semi-Gloss for the chance to pinch-hit this week.
Apoligies if I missed a few of the names – recording seemed fuzzy in places. Let me know if there are any corrections.
Happy Fathers day!

Great Q Turkey Leg! My kids had a blast and told me so! My oldest even said “Dad, those are good guys…..I know why you like F3 so much”. He’s right!
I still want Dolphin to have to do 25 burpees for bumping into me during the run back from an animal race. I’ve had ice on the ol’ hip all day. Once I get better I challenge you to another scorpion race, Dolphin!
