CoT: It’s one thing to workout by yourself, but a whole new event working out with each other, and in the sight of God. Isaiah 40:28-31

28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.

29 He giveth power to the faint; and to them that have no might he increaseth strength.

30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall:

31 But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.

F3 facilitates true growth of ourselves physically (so we can run and not be wear, and walk and not faint), but also spiritually.

COT: Talking about F3 and the motivation that the PAX is showing. LoCo is growing, we have had several new guys over the last 2-3 weeks and the group’s enthusiasm with the upcoming events is off the charts. The motivation that the PAX brings day in and day out is what motivated today’s Q to actually get up and get at it this morning.

Observations: #loco has a busy schedule of upcoming events including finalizing plans on a Ruck Challenge to take place in May. Good to see everyone posting regularly and the addition to the PAX over the last couple of weeks has been great.

We then took a break to run the length of the field and back – one partner forward, one partner backward, maintaining 10 yards distance tossing a tennis ball back and forth. Three burpees when it hit the turf. We did a lot of burpees. Then Dora Round 2: 50 Burpees, 100 Body Weight Squats, 150 Alternating Shoulder Taps (three count), repeat tennis run; Dora Round Three, 100 Mountain Climbers in cadence, 200 side straddle hops in cadence, 300 LBC which was de facto Mary as we were over time at that point.
COT: Grind through the tough times to earn the good times. Nice warm day today feels all the more sweet given we gutted it out all winter through the snow and ice. Thank all PAX for motivating me to get out there in lousy conditions – now let’s enjoy spring.
