COT: YHC thanked the HIMs for kicking the tires on thedriveway. YHC encouraged the PAX to take advantage of the many offerings of F3 TheCapital Region, from running and rucking, to HIIT and strength training, and everything in between. YHC mentioned Michael Easter and the “harder to kill” concept as a way to improve overall well-being and resilience by intentionally exposing oneself to discomfort and challenge, both physically and mentally. YHC encouraged the PAX to continue their F3 journey by strengthening physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, and to consider adding thedriveway discomfort to their routines.

Next week the PAX will get to experience the workout that inspired thedriveway. SYITG!

Great work, men!
