    Date: October 24, 2022
    Time: 5:30am to 6:15am
    Location: The Gauntlet
    QIC: Geppetto
    PAX: 9 total -Peach, Lego, Hannibal, Huckleberry, Guardian, Illini, Striker, Geppetto, Venom

    F3 – Fitness, Fellowship, Faith
    Mission –Plant, grow and serve small workout groups for men for the invigoration of male community leadership.
    The core principles of F3 are that it must:
    Be free of charge
    Be open to all men
    Be held outdoors, rain or shine, heat or cold (except when the governor says we have to stay home)
    Be led by men who participate in the workout in a rotating fashion, with no training or certification necessary. You versus you. Modify or stop an exercise if you need to. The most important thing is that nobody gets hurt.
    End with a Circle of Trust

    Warm Up:
    Run from Rivercrest lot out to Eckel Jct and into the Ft Meigs Elementary lot back to behind school.

    The “Thang”: Forty-Five second AMRAP, 15 second transitions. After every five exercises we ran down and back twice from portable classrooms to basketball hoops.

    Group One: Merkins, Plank Jacks, Squats, Flutter Kicks, American Hammers
    Group Two: Hand Release Merkins, Shoulder Taps, Never Surrenders, BBSU’s, Box Cutters
    Group Three: Diamond Merkins, Plank Jack Shoulder Taps, Imperial Walkers, LBC’s, Hello Dolly’s
    Group Four: Elevator Merkins, Mountain Climbers, Imperial Squat Walkers, Leg Lifts, Freddie Mercury’s
    Group Five (PAX choice): Hannibal – Mike Tyson’s, Venom – Carolina Dry Docks, Striker – Squats, Lego – Nolan Ryan’s, Huckleberry – Side Straddle Hops

    Mosied back to cars for (12) Merkins for Striker’s birthday, Count-O-Rama, Name-O-Rama, The Six, Announcements and a prayer. Peach was the Six – he was EH’d by OK, got his name because he played college baseball. Came for the exercise, stays for the fellowship. Aye!

    Prayers for Illini’s children and their family on the sudden loss of their mother. Praise for Striker’s 12th birthday

    Moleskin/Spreadsheet from the Gloom:
    Mid 50’s low wind. Great morning.
    Wishing my son Noah (Striker) a very happy birthday!
