CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
A general shout-out of appreciation, recognition, and encouragement to the PAX, especially the new(er) guys who are staying consistent. The more times guys regularly post, the stronger our accountability magnet becomes. Big time praise for Orange Julius who fought through merlot splash to finish strong. Congrats to Choker, Green Monster, and Snookie for their induction into the illustrious Club 345. Momentum builds as the snowball (1) gets larger, and (2) moves faster and faster down the hill. Let’s keep adding PAX into the funnel and posting as much as possible during the week to keep F3 Memphis “full steam ahead.” 

MOLESKIN:
QIC continually impressed with the perseverance of the PAX through a tough BC and adverse weather conditions. 16 PAX is a solid number on an especially gloomy Saturday morning. “The Thang” was a gasser–there was enough meat on the bone for all to be challenged. Partnering up and sharing the load between the pairs reinforced the importance of bearing our brothers’ burdens and pushing each other to our limits. Partner carries cemented the unspoken lesson.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
VAPE session NEXT Saturday (2/24) immediately following Mothership BC.
