We got an FNG at this mornings ruck at Pine Fork Park. I had the pleasure of meeting this guy, Josh at the park with my kids on Sunday when he asked me in passing if I’m the F3 guy he see’s posts from on the FB neighborhood page.
This Red Bearded FNG Clydesdale showed up with a 50 lb weighted vest so I decided to carry a coupon in addition to my 30 lb ruck pack for the first half of the 5K ruck to feel like I was pulling my weight.
Choo Choo is downrange for work but he’ll be back soon in hopes to get this New Guy a nickname by Fridays bootcamp. I’m leaning towards Big Red or Duracell.
Josh Perry, grew up in West Point, 32.
He’s got a big red beard. Went to college in Lynchburg.
He works remotely for the state doing bank audits on the data/IT side.
His wife Mary is from Indiana’s Amish country, and met in college, she caught his eye as she ran laps around her soccer teammates. They have 2 boys named Howie(4) and AJ(1.5)
Josh can carry on some conversations so he was expecting a nickname like Yappy which we may have to venture as well.
