QIC: Simmons
At 5:00 The Pre-Runs headed out. I believe it was 8 or so guys out on the run this morning.
At 5:30 Simmons welcomed PAX to F3 and thanked them for coming out for his Q. He reminded them of the mission to Plant, Serve, and Grow small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. He then covered the 5 core principles of F3. 1) Open to ALL men. 2) Always free. 3) Always held outdoors. 4) Lead in a rotating fashion. 5) Ends with a Circle of Trust (COT). He also stated, “I am not a professional! And to modify as needed!” He stated the credo of, “Leave no man behind and leave no man where we found him!” Lastly, he asked if we had any FNG’s (there were none).
The Warm – A – Rama
Pax completed 15 Tappy Taps and 10 Big Ones. PAX then lined up along a curb in the parking lot to perform step aerobics with Richard Simmons himself (wig and all)! Step aerobics were done to the tune of “Dancing in the Street”, and PAX definitely showed off their moves!
Last stop for Warm-O-Rama was on the turf to run a suicide using the soccer field lines. PAX then numbered off into four groups.

COT:
“Keep Being You”
As I prepare myself for fatherhood I just wanted to let everyone know how thankful I am for all of you guys in F3. You may just be talking through your night, but someone is always watching. Im learning from all of you and your stories. Even if you had a bad night the night before you posted at a workout, because you were camping out in the back yard and got zero sleep. What I heard was you have an idea jar that your kids get to pick from to keep activities fresh and exciting for the kids. So I mainly just wanted to thank all of you guys for giving me little nuggets of wisdom for fatherhood.
