F3 Knoxville

Great day at the 1st F3 Knoxville Inner-City Kids Workout

God blessed us today with beautiful weather for F3 Knoxville  to come downtown and hold a kids workout for kids that need male leadership in their lives. 18 F3 HIMs came out to bond with 21 of their kid partners and crush the workout. We also had 8 F3 2.0s in attendance as well as an adult FNG or two that need to come out again!

During the BOM, We shared the importance of leaning on each other in tough times, keeping each other out of bad situations and trusting God to help us through those difficulties. At the end, Christmas came a little early as men brought a small gift for each of the kids. They were very happy and had a great time. Several were asking when F3 would come back again….This may be the start of a good relationship with these kids as we can plan other activities as well. Praise God for the opportunity to be with these awesome kids today. A special thanks to @Tinder (program director at WH) for getting the kids together and allowing us this opportunity to serve theses kids. He is a true HIM!

 

F3 Knoxville Inner City kids workout

F3 Knoxville wants to REALLY make a difference in a Knoxville inner city kids life.
On Sunday Dec 3rd from 2pm-3pm, we will be doing a special workout with kids from the Mechanicsville and Broadway areas. All of the kids have no active fathers or positive male role models in their lives.
This is our opportunity to show them what real men are like.
We will have a fun workout, interact with the kids and let them see positive role models in action. There will be a 45 min workout with the kids where we will partner up for team building exercises and have a special BOM at the end. Many of the kids get very little if any gifts during the season, so the PAX will also be bring a small gift to give to their kid partner from the workout.

CSAUP Event Truckin To The Pound

Men of Knoxville, this Saturday October 28, 2017 you are invited to attend a Completely Stupid and Utterly Pointless (CSAUP) event.  #TruckinToThePound #TTTP

This event was created by the men of F3 Knoxville’s Dog Pound crew as a way to have a longer event such as a Ragnar Relay, Spartan, Tough Mudder, etc. without the added expenses of entry fees, travel expenses, and most importantly the time away from family and friends.

As busy men, just like you we wanted to do something bigger but not have to travel to another city/State/province to complete the event.

So this Saturday instead of wishing you could get out there and do a crazy race come do one with us!  At 0600 we will gather at the Truck Stop aka Bob Leonard Park and we will mosey to the Dog Pound located at Concord Park.  The course is 9ish miles, with 4 stops for mini-Qs or workouts along the way. With some added bonus features if you wish to think of them that way.

 

This event is free!

 

This event is for the High Impact Men (HIM)s of Knoxville to challenge themselves and each other, and help one another get better.

It is a CSAUP event, there are no trophies, medals, prizes or awards. We are all going to go out and get better together. #IronSharpensIron

Start together finish together.  For more information contact Mayberry via DM

 

2nd Anniversary Gathering

Celebrate F3 Knoxville’s 2nd anniversary with a workout in the morning and a fun afternoon of fellowship!

F3 Knoxville launched on a damp Saturday morning on November 7 2015. Over the past two years, literally hundreds of men have come out to the gloom to get better. We have exercised in the heat, the snow and the rain, and watched the sun come up as we grabbed the day by the horns. Men have grown physically and spiritually, and lasting friendships have been made. This PAX has continually inspired the rest of F3 Nation, and is only getting stronger.

On Saturday November 4, we want to celebrate. We will have a convergence workout at the the Asylum that morning, bringing all the PAX together. That afternoon, we will get to fellowship with each other while having a potluck dinner (see instructions below), an “awards” ceremony and a fun game for the wives and kids. The festivities will be from 2:00pm to 6:00pm at McFee park (933 McFee Rd. Knoxville, 37934)

This is going to be a family event so bring the whole crew…girlfriend, wife, kids, friends or someone that you just met today! The F3 “Awards” nomination Google Doc form will be emailed out soon. Please take a minute to fill it out even if you can’t make it to the gathering.

For the Potluck, La-Z-Boy has put together an online sign up sheet. Please click below or cut and paste to sign up to bring something. The link to the sign up is: http://www.signupgenius.com/go/20f0d45ada82faafe3-f3potluck

I, Cap’n Crunch, want to personally encourage and exhort you…come out and be a part of what you have built! Even if it has been a while since you’ve seen the gloom, take this weekend as an opportunity to hit the restart button. Looking forward to seeing everyone at McFee Park on the 4th. Reach out to someone you haven’t seen in a while, let them know they are missed and we are holding their spot in the COT. No man left behind, no man left the same!
