Polish or Turkish Get-Ups?

YHC pulled into an empty parking lot 10 minutes before launch.  BOG was the next to arrive followed by the rest of the PAX.  There were 4 over achieving PAX who ran to the site (Mermaid, Dory, Sacagawea & the late arriving Scabby).  YHC got a little “trigger happy” and the PAX departed before Scabby arrived.  No worries as Scabby appeared during COP.

Moleskin:

Strong group of men today at #F3Centurion. YHC tried to fake out the PAX by running past Palatine Hill.  There was some chatter when “Polish” Get-ups were announced.  YHC did not realize they are actually called Turkish Get-ups.  The PAX avoided all fire ants and the heavy rain which is was a plus. Sending our best out to Rip Curl who pulled a muscle during the work out.

Announcements:

Remember that there is more to F3 than just the 1st F.  Explore opportunities to participate in 2nd and 3rd F groups.
