Since my first Post not quite a year ago, I’ve been lucky enough to run into countless men that I never would have had the chance to meet without F3. It’s truly been an honor and a material change in my life to be touched by so many special people.
That said, immediately after my first Post, there were several people that I knew would soak up the Kool-Aid like I did. Top of that list was Snowden. We’ve been buddies ever since I was his customer a decade ago, and, we’ve been working across the hall from eachother for the past 2 years. As he would attest, we’ve been through some, um, “stuff” together. We’ve been plotting to do a co-Q since last Fall, and just haven’t been able to make it happen due to schedules, etc. Lo and behold, this week it finally worked out, and 22 Swamp Rabbit PAX got a Tag Team Treat courtesy of YHC and our favorite #MumblechatterExtraordinaire.
By the way, this is what happens when Snowden gets an idea in his head:

- Always fun leading the boys. Even more fun when I get to share the Q with a good friend like Snowden. This was one of the most fun times I’ve had leading the PAX through their paces. Hope everybody enjoyed
- Burpees are #SnowdenKryptonite. Anytime you wanna shut him up, throw ’em into the mix and things will get eerily quiet
- Considering the long GORUCK simulation we had the following day, the duckwalks might have been a bad idea
- Snowden knows that YHC is prone to pottymouthedness, but I’ve managed to keep it (relatively) clean in deference to the PAX. All that went out the window when Nature Boy accidentally dropped that sandbag on my face. Just glad there weren’t any 2.0s present. Apologies if I offended anybody with the sailor-like diatribe that ensued #nofilter
- #Tclaps to Gluten, Brown Shorts and Ponzi for some tough effort. Keep at it boys.
