Today YHC decided it was time to turn back the clock and relive some of my favorite beatdowns of the year. After clicking through pages of backblasts, I was able to narrow it down to three.

In celebration of Bell’s upcoming 40th birthday the PAX did 40 flutter kicks IC and 40 LBCs

To end the celebration YHC had a present for the PAX. While listening to Here Comes Santa Claus by Elvis, the PAX held a plank and did a merkin each time Santa’s name was mentioned. Ok, that was probably more like coal in your stocking, but it’s a long tike tradition at the Eagle, albeit usually to Thunderstruck. Adequately smoked, we circled up.

Continued prayers for Crash Carts daughter.

YHC’s message today was about gratitude toward yourself. This time of year it’s pretty common to set goals and look ahead to next year. It’s also important to reflect back on the past year and recall all that we accomplished. F3 has been a blessing for me and I am truly thankful to get to work out each week, and occasionally lead, such an amazing group of men. AYE!
