The objective is to Honor Law Enforcement with a 2 mile slowzey wearing a vest or rucksack while taking turns carrying the American Flag. 5 min warmup, 15 min thangggg and 25 min 2 mile run (12.5 min avg mile). C’monnnnnnMore F3 kool-aid, yes please. I drink it proudly un afraid of judgement.I will become what I know I am…CoT preview.HC in the

The Thang
Thang One
(Original Plan was modified to keep PAX spread out in smaller groups)
Modified Dora 1-2-3 is 50, 100, and 150 reps.
50 merkins, 100 LBS’s, 150 squats. While one PAX performs the other runs to the top of the hill and back down relieving his partner. Hold plank when finished.
(Modified Dora for times sake)
Thang Two
5th Annual USMS Heroes Honor Run
2 mile run in full kit (vest/rucksacks). Take turns carrying the American Flag.
(Route: I call it the @@ run as he showed me the way. West on the riverwalk, Right on Jefferson, Right on Washington, Right on Aurora (unless you can’t follow directions or read *inside joke)
Recovery Walk from bottom of Rotary Hill
Circle of Trust
On becoming who you’re meant to be:
“Look me in the eye. It’s okay if you’re scared. So am I. But we are scared for different reasons. I am scared of what I won’t become. And you are scared of what I could become. Look at me. I won’t let myself end where I started. I won’t let myself finish where I began. I know what is within me, even if you can’t see it yet. Look me in the eyes. I have something more important than courage. I have patience. I will become what I know I am.” — Michael Jordan, “Become Legendary” commercial (2013)

I broke down what words that came to mind as I read this for the last week. I broke it down to seven.
- Vulnerability – what will they say?
- Perspective – we’re unique that’s what makes us strong – respect one other either way
- Failure – what if I fail?
- Inspiration – take action, get off your ass.
- Belief – If I believe I’m willing to pay the price
- Wisdom – wise to know it’s a journey not a destination
- Hope – A leader must NEVER lose hope – John Maxwell
The noise comes from the stands, “I’m in the M’Fing Arena!”
Final Prayer
Naked Man Moleskin
Wow, speechless (hard to believe huh, LOL). Still on cloud 9. Still flowing with gratitude!!!
I can’t thank you men enough!
I will thank you with my actions.
F3 has changed my life. Thank you Hootie. Fib thanks for having the vision to plant this Tree. It bears much fruit!
50 PAX in attendance, glory to God!
I could go on and on and on and on yet time does not allow.
Special shout out to Baby Hands and Face Plant for helping manage the PAX.
My cup overflows.
Singing off…..
See you @ the TOP!
