  • When: 05/02/2022
  • QIC: Saigon Sam
  • The PAX: Snowden, Bada Boom, Bada Bing, Left Turn, DDay, Valdez

6 Pax joined YHC in the gloom of HardNocs and we brought in some extra “no seeums “ to attack the pax during the workout for extra suckiness!   We spare no expense for adversity at HardNocs!

No FNG’s and Disclaimer read.

F3 is Peer led,  Free, Open to all Men, Outdoors rain or shine and always ends in a Circle of Trust.

With Fallen coming at the end of the month YHC found a workout deep in the Exicon to help the Pax get Fallen ready!

Mosey back to circle.

Upon return, YHC discussed putting something on the calendar that scares you a little.  For me that’s the Fallen, for LT that may be an Ironman for a newer Pax it may be a 10K.  Always look to accelerate and drive accountability by settling your sites on a goal that stretches your limits.

“What man actually needs is not a tensionless state but rather the striving and struggling for some goal worthy of him.” Viktor Frankl

“No discipline is enjoyable while it is happening—it’s painful! But afterward there will be a peaceful harvest of right living for those who are trained in this way.”
