CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Today’s workout was a different pace than most F3 workouts.  It was slower, it not as intense, it was not as hard as a usual F3 workout.  Today was planned to be an active recovery workout.  Sometimes in life we need to change the pace also.  You can’t go at top speed everyday and be your best.  Sometimes you need to slow down and have recovery days or transition days.  Today was a transition day for me.  I am still sore from the Iron Pax Challenge last Friday and I know that I need lighter exercise days to help me recover so I can do the Iron Pax Challenge coming up this Friday.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Iron Pax Challenge is ongoing.  Even if you are not signed up and have not participated you could still come out and do the IPC workout on Friday at the Berm.
