9 Pax including 1 FNG….Bomb Shelter had an FNG all 3 Workout Dates!  #Amazing!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Built off @Ma’am BOM From Thursday.  F3 being more than a workout but a group of men you can count on.  People that care about you and are there for you in times of need.  I spoke about Foundations.  Without a strong foundation anything you build on top will crumble.  F3 is my foundation, for fitness, fellowship and faith.  F3 is my rock I build off.  Challenged all the pax to look into their foundation, and test the strength of it, question it and look for ways to reinforce it further!
MOLESKIN:
Blessed to have such a strong group of men to spend time with at least 3 times a week!

    CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
    Starting F3 I was the stereotypical Sad Clown, I had hit a rut in life and was in desperate need of a way out. I had been asked to come to an Knoxville AO but I used the excuse that it was to far and to early. Once I was told the AO in Alcoa was opening up I really had no excuse anymore so I figured I should try. I was very worried about where I was physically and not being able to keep up or accepted into the group. While I was right about not being able to keep up completely this great group of guys that formed here never left me behind and always pushed me to do the best I could do. I can’t imagine doing this with any better of a group of guys. I appreciate each and every one of you and look forward to continue getting better together.
