Today 9 men came together, 5 ran, and 4 rucked, for one hour, and then followed that up with coffee, donuts, and intentional conversation about how to “unlock” more men. This term comes from several F3 sources, and we will be hosting OTB workouts in this manner to dive deeper into the topic, and how to share this message with the region.

If you are interested in learning more, please send me a message on slack. You will be hearing more soon as we explore ways to bring this message to a workout near you!

We had an enlightening conversation about the 3rd F and how to carry out the F3 mission with an emphasis on the third F.

Thanks to all of the men who came out and participated.

“Heavy” Day at ShamRUCK

We rucked the catholic loop, and stopped where we parked to do some light PT with the ruck. Ruckers were given the option to skip the PT and continue rucking, and the PTer’s then jogged to catch them on the loop.

Good times were had by most.

Out COT referenced Proverbs 11:24
“Those who give generously receive more, but those who are stingy with what is appropriate will grow needy.”

Often times we read a verse like this and think about money, and while that may be accurate, what if we are talking about time? I could argue that time might be our most valuable resource, and if we are generous with that time, where appropriate, then we will be be blessed with “more”. I am not saying we will get more time, but I think there is value in managing and not squandering our time, In fact, giving our time, may be more difficult than giving our money.

An OTB run occurred from North Knox. We ran through the homeless streets near Karm, and then by Big Ball to say hello to the PAX mid workout. We traversed across the Henley Street bridge, then back across the Gay street Bridge, running all the way down Gay Street, through 4th and Gill, and then back to the Donut Shop. Good times were had by most.
