500 pax converged at the Leatherneck Course in Gaston, SC for the 2015 Spring Edition of the Super Bowl of F3 – THE LEGENDARY ULTIMATE CHALLENGE MUD RUN.  There were some impressive perfomances from the pax ranging from 16 teams completing the course in under 1 hour time to some first time participants conquering the course in impressive fashion.  Our time spent with the Heros from Operation Enduring Warrior provided plenty of #3rdF for the Pax, while the #F3BeerBoat provided more than enough #2ndF.  It was only fitting that the day would included a couple rain showers since F3 workouts are held rain or shine.  A Great Day for F3Nation!

Conditions: Low 60s, partly cloudy, some light rain, perfect for a CSAUP event

Operation Enduring Warrior Presentation:

• Jared, one of the OEW athletes and Mud Run Participants, expressed his appreciation for all F3Nation does to support their cause in help veterans regain their lives after return home from active duty.
• Then Brian from OEW presented Sway and YHC with a Plaque to F3 to express their appreciation.
• Followed by Sway and YHC presenting a check for $5000 to OEW on behalf of F3Nation.  #TClaps to the Pax!

BOM – Prayer by Chaser – “One day our bodies will be void of strength and energy… but TODAY is NOT that DAY!” – AYE

Beginning at 8:30, the pax embarked on the 6 mile course featuring 36 obstacles.
