COT: YHC shared he recently completed a heavy ruck challenge with Hightower. Proper training and preparation helped achieve the goal and not get hurt in the process. YHC also shared that his daughter is back in the hospital, and the family is trying to figure out next steps. No amount of preparation is enough for these sorts of family events, but F3 (and particularly the men of F3) has helped YHC meet the moment and lead his family throughout this difficult season. The men of F3 show up in the gloom to do hard things so we are prepared to handle the hard things when they come into our lives. (And they do.) YHC also shared that his heavy challenge training isolated him from the regular F3 beatdowns, and he expressed thanks to be back in the gloom with the HIMs of The Capital Region. Thank you, men.
