Mosey back to the AO.  Just for fun, complete 29 Lunges IC.

Count-O-Rama – 12 PAX in attendance.

Name-O-Rama

Welcome “Cathy” – Brad Reed.  He’s a friend of Pythagoras.  He has a background in nursing, so “Cathy”, or maybe more appropriate “Cath-y”.  YHC decided that “Michelob” was “too cool”.

Announcement

Goliath at the Gorge is Saturday 10/14.  If you haven’t signed up, why not?  There are 2 FREE SPOTS.  Who wouldn’t want an all-expense paid trip to Doe River Gorge?  You could even be on YHC’s team.

GrowRuck is in Chattanooga the week of 11/17-19.  See Donatello for more details.  It should be epic!

EH an FNG.

If you haven’t been on the Q, or you haven’t been on the Q in awhile, GET ON THE Q!

Moleskin

Today was my 1-year Q!  It has been a great 12 months.  I have built friendships while becoming stronger physically and spiritually.  I am a lot closer to God and my M than I was 12 months ago.  I have lost 20lbs.  I have run more miles than I ever could have done on my own.  I appreciate the impact that each one of you have had on my life.  I appreciate Kardashian laying the EH on me!  I am a better man for it for sure!

Ecclesiastes 4:9-12New International Version (NIV)

Two are better than one,
    because they have a good return for their labor:
10 If either of them falls down,
    one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
    and has no one to help them up.
11 Also, if two lie down together, they will keep warm.
    But how can one keep warm alone?
12 Though one may be overpowered,
    two can defend themselves.
A cord of three strands is not quickly broken.

This passage embodies a lot of what F3 means to me.  Thanks to each of you for being part of that “cord of three strands”.

Keep Las Vegas in your prayers.  Keep praying for Texas and Florida as they recover from hurricanes.  Also pray for Grillz and  his family.
