6 brave HIMs rolled out of their fart sacks to face the frost and flex some grit at this mornings chilly Green Mile beat down. Some say it’s a dying AO, but the dedication and consistency of these guys say otherwise!

To my F3 brothers, I want to pour out my heartfelt gratitude and unwavering support you’ve shown me these past few months. At my first Q I opened up a little about about my journey- I laid bare the chapters of my life I wasn’t proud of. For years before 2020 I wandered down a dark path tangled in an unhealthy lifestyle and surrounded by a rough crowd. This was my world until marriage and fatherhood began to rewrite my story. Even for three years, I drifted lost searching for an anchor- until July 2024 when F3 found me. A special nod to Heist whose relentless encouragement became the nudge I needed to step into this brotherhood. Since that day, every corner of my life, mind, body, and spirit had blossomed in ways I couldn’t imagine 8 months ago. F3 has been a lifeline and a gift I’ll carry with gratitude forever. I pray that God guides me to find others like me that may be lost and want to be found. Thank you all for lifting me up and showing me what it means to belong. see you guys in the gloom!
