Introduction
I saw Thanksgiving Q open just before Reindeer games and had a special idea in mind but not sure it would work. I wanted a Q dedicated to what I am most thankful for but was also a good overall workout for the PAX.

The Thang
It was a long set up today in the field, that looked more like an airport runway. I set up cones in the field that our GPS watches would track to spell out what I am most thankful for.
We headed out to the field where I instructed PAX to turn on their GPS. Each letter had multiple lights or cones where we stopped to perform exercises as a group. F (5 burpees), A (10 merkins), M (15 big boys), I (20 lunges), L (25 parker peters), Y (30 squats), after the last light I instructed pax to turn off their GPS. ALl the pax were gracious enough to help pick up the lights quickly. We then moseyed back to the lot where Thang 2 awaited, 11’s including Blockies & Chest Press, Pax made it approx half way through and at 5:55 we circled up for Mary consisting of American Hammers, Heel Taps, Flutter Kicks, Freddy Mercurys and Merkin ring of fire.
Circle of Trust
Being Thanksgiving I shared that my Family is what I am most thankful for, but not just the good parts, the health of my children, them doing well in school and the laughs we share, but I am also thankful for the difficult times, the struggles as they are a time for us to learn and grow together and I believe making it through the hard times makes us closer. I also wanted to thank my M specifically for putting up with me during RDG and picking up my slack because she knows how competitive I am. Lastly I wanted to thank my F3 family and F3 in general, I started this to get in shape for my kids, to get healthier, but its grown into so much more for me, I am pushing myself more and more and thankful to the PAX to help lead the way.

I truly appreciate everyone that came out and enjoyed this unique BC today, I am humbled by the messages and other PAX sharing the GPS tracker of the message. Thank you
