Convergence. The gathering of the Pax. When the fitness Q proposed a Co-Q Convergence YHC said yes. The Stadium was the perfect place and YHC knew the Pax would be better for the time spent together. When YHC arrived at Gate 5 the Pax were gathering and Grammar the Co-Q was on site and pumping up the Pax. Flags were planted, the hour struck and 49 Pax with 2 FNGs  “circled up”. The Co-Qs did our intros, the disclaimer was given and it was on like neckbone.

COP

SSH x 25 IC

Mustache Squats x 15 IC (Hearing the 49 men of F3 ENC count that cadence and how it echoed around the entire stadium area is awesome. Cool!)

Mosey to the parking lot. The Pax led by Grammar was great to see. A long line of men headed downhill to the big parking lot to put in work together. Grammar gave the directions and the Pax listened.

The Beast = 6 reps at each island in the lot (6) to the top of the parking lot and run back to the start for 3 rounds:

-Merkins

-Jump Squats

-Burpees (some mumble chatter here about “What?” “We don’t do Burpees!” “Man!” “This is going to suck!”)

 

Between rounds Grammar led Plank Jacks, Smurf Jacks and American Hammer.

 

At the end of the Beast Grammar called the switch and YHC took over.

Dora 1-2-3 (All About The Benjamins) Partner 1 does the exercise while partner 2 runs, Reps are counted as a team.

Squats x 100:

Lunges x 200

Merkins x 300 (Called due to time)

 

Mosey back to flag and Jailbreak at the front of Minges

COT/BOM

Prayer Requests for Papa Smurf, injured and recovering Pax, T-Bone’s daughter and concussion, ECU intern whose father passed. Abu with the Q for Runstrong tomorrow, Anniversary Convergence planning begins. Need Pax to step up and take a role or create your role. Lunch tomorrow at Basil’s, Live Well 5k March 11 and Grow Ruck that same weekend. Every Pax can  do something that weekend.

YHC knew that this would be a great time when the fitness Q (who is relentless by the way) called and said YHC needed to Co-Q a convergence. The focus on CommUNITY has sparked a lot of growth in F3ENC during the cold months of winter.  The 49 (not 51 as YHC hallucinated) Pax who posted this morning were there to support each other. For YHC this morning in the gloom was proof that as each Pax accelerates, F3 ENC accelerates and our CommUNITY accelerates. The day is not just about the Martin Luther King Jr. It is about a man standing for the entire community and calling for all of us to accelerate. All of us as men who live out “CommUNITY” can fulfill Dr. King’s vision of a CommUnity that provides opportunity, justice and grace. During coffeteria while talking with Mayhem we talked about doing the things that are outside of the comfort zone. Each post has the potential to take YHC there (this one sure did) as does each day. Being a Respect Pax YHC is still learning that lesson. The purpose of the 3rd F for YHC is to have the “Faith” that we are not alone in pushing our personal rock. Wherever or whatever it may be. Take that chance and share what you’ve been given with your CommUNITY…the WHOLE CommUNITY and YHC has a guarantee from the Sky Q that it will bear fruit for you, for YHC, for the CommUNITY. Thanks for the opportunity to serve.
