This was my first time back in a while and I'm hurting today but it felt really good to get back with the guy and work my body. No Bars had a great time and I was really impressed with how much of a workout this was for him. He said that he was working muscles he normally doesn't work so this was indeed a workout! FWIW, he ran 10 miles on the tobacco trail the day before. For a guy that placed well in the Lake Placid Iron Man just a few months ago to say this group is for real from a conditioning perspective is impressive.
It was also my first time socializing after posting with some of the guys and it was a lot of fun. It was just coffee and talk but I came away more complete than I've ever experience since my joining F3. This group has definitely been one of the best things I've done since moving down here.
