5:30: Did the F3 intro – Fitness, Fellowship and Faith. Five Core Principles – open to all men, free of charge, always held outside, peer led in a rotating fashion, end in circle of trust (COT), Mission statement is to plant, grow and serve small workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. Credo is to leave no man behind but leave no man where found him. Announced that I wasn’t a professional and to modify exercises as needed. No FNG’s.

One man AMRAP’d exercise one (see below) on parking level 2 while the other ran up the stairs to floor 4 and down the ramps to level 2, then switched.

COT: Although I will have been married to my M for 37 years in April, it is not fair for me to try and give marriage advice because each relationship is different. My message was simply that I hope each PAX member’s day is filled with moments and reminders of how much they are appreciated and loved. I also encouraged them to share that message with those that are important to them throughout the day and every day. Happy Valentine’s Day!
Khakis led us in prayer
