COT
Thanks so much for the warm welcome and the kick-ass effort today. It was an honor and a privilege serving as your Q. The workouts, our 1st F, are important. But so is the Fellowship, our 2nd F, and the relationships that Fellowship strengthens. Apply that lesson in your broader life and focus on strengthening relationships with those around you. Aye!
