Late nights (2 in a row) chasing 2.0 HS grad around to various awards ceremonies on the opposite side of town wore out this old man. Add to that, up at 3:30 for some GrowRuck training prior to the 6-7 w/o, I had to modify frequently. My apologies to the PAX, I’ll try harder next time.  Still heard lots of midwife noises and heavy breathing along the run. Ok, let’s mosey.

GrowRuck 03 – New Orleans June 9-11 combines F3 Grow School with a GoRuck Tough. You don’t want to miss this! If you’re sitting on the fence about this event, sign up today. This is a custom GoRuck event, which has been specifically designed for F3 to help reinforce the Leadership Development training that the PAX will be exposed to over the course of the GR03. As a FenceSitter, you will have nothing but regret for a long time to come, as the PAX that do participate come back and retell story after story of this transformative experience. So, don’t miss out – sign up!   http://bit.ly/2nWxT5H Ruck training is underway – to join the chatter on Band.

Convergence: YHC is seeking opinions on holding a “Convergence” on Saturday, June 17th prior to Fathers Day.  This convergence would be held at Memorial Park “7-8 or 7:30 – 8:30 or 8-9” Invitations to all “M’s” and “2.0’s” are highly encouraged and this would be a chance for more 2ndF.

Twitter/Band: We have a good comms system going for F3 Houston via Twitter and Band.   Get on either and look up F3 for regular updates and #Mumblechatter. Inferno or one of the other PAX (YHC included) can also help get you hooked up.
