QIC failed to put out a Pre-blast so he wasn’t sure how many to expect in the gloom. However, 13 Strong showed in the chili gloom just to see how much QIC would bring. The PAX include 2 FNG’s who were making there second appearance and received their official F3 names, Eli Altshuler (Wild Thing) and Sam Haney (War Eagle). QIC must admit that he was impressed to see that 3 young men had decided to fight off the fartsack and chili air to better themselves.

5:30am Time for the fun to begin. Disclaimer and off we went.

Indian run with one Burpee penalty to begin. Seemed the some of the PAX thought starting with a burpee penalty was a bit harsh.

Well after QIC got everyone off to a bit of a rocky start with the penalty burpee to kick off the morning things seemed to improve. As I think we all know by now QIC loves to throw in pull-ups to the beatdown almost as much a Talladega does. Of course, QIC can’t knock them out like the stud Talladega does. Guys really worked hard to knock them out. Not wanting to ignore the lower half QIC thought what better way to increase strength and stamina and motivate your workout buddy than by trying to push each other around a bit. If pushing doesn’t do it then try pulling them along for the workout for a bit. Well QIC didn’t have a buddy but Talladega and Torch not wanting QIC to feel left out were happy to push and pull QIC around.

QIC thought well things are going well everyone has worked out a little pent up frustration by pushing and pulling one another around, so maybe it was time for everyone to spend time alone facing the wall. Not so sure that everyone was a fan. The playful banter quickly turned to moans and groans as we put our balls to the walls.

Great work put in by all! The 3 youngsters really hung in there and put in the work!

As always a true pleasure to lead such a fine group of men/young men. Nice to see that we had 3 young men who represent the future of F3, our community and nation out to better themselves.
