This was first time posting/Qing at the Danger Zone so when I showed up I wasn’t sure if I was in the right spot. Shortly after I arrived Echo pulled into the parking lot and confirmed I was in the right spot. Echo joined me for a 2 mile pre run and showed me the path. Thank you Echo!
PAX: Echo, Animal House, Finney, Rooney, Black Tuesday, Baby Shark and YHC Cheap Seats
I welcomed these Sarpy Boys and explained F3, gave mission statement and Credo. Special thanks to Animal for supplying extra coupons.
This was a coupon themed beatdown so we moseyed down the steps with our coupons to the track to start warm-o-rama
Warm-O-Rama
We started out by running one lap around the track and then went to the field to complete a series of Kalenstenics. Karaoke, High Knees, Butt Kicks and Mario Jumps.
We then completed a round of stretches. Tappy Taps, Tator Taps, Big Ones, Hill Billie’s and Arm Circles
Pre Thang: Then each PAX member took a coupon and ran up and down the steps at the football stadium 3 times either rifle carrying or running with their coupon. We then moseyed down to the field/track to complete The Thang.
Thang
The Thang consisted of completing a group of exercises along with some coupon work. Below is what we did.
There were 3 rounds of exercises. So in order, the group completed round 1, ran a lap and then murdered bunnies 50 yards. After the murder bunnies the PAX would run another lap and complete round 2 of the below exercises. After round 2 the PAX would then reverse murder bunny 50 yards. Run another lap and complete round 3 of the below exercise. Then murder bunny 50 yards and run another lap. The PAX was able to complete all 3 rounds plus another round 1 for a total of 4 rounds and almost 2.8 miles of running.

COT
My COT dealt with “Impact”. I discussed on F3 has a significant impact not only on me but also the people around me. The impact spreads like wild fire to my family and M. The impact I’ve felt in F3 is one that has changed me as a man, leader, Father and husband. To be surrounded by such a great group of men striving for the same goals has been incredible.
I then explained how I’ve recently failed at having an Impact on friends in my life. I shared that one of my closest friends checked himself into an inpatient facility to help with his Depression. It’s been real bad for him and I feel my impact hasn’t made a difference on him. Knowing the Impact the men of F3 had on me, why wasn’t I more involved in my friend’s life? It something I still think about today and I’m happy to say my friend is better but not fully healed.
I challenged to PAX to think of somebody they haven’t reached or impacted that they know they should. Reach out to them and know how powerful their impact can be on their lives. Our mission is so strong that we need to continue to share it with everyone we encounter.
