Maybe next year.<\/p>\n<p>The point of this backblast, though, is not to ruminate on the workout and what may or may not have happened. I&#8217;d like to take a few lines here to thank each and every one of you. This morning I was working out with 13 other men, but over the past 5 years I&#8217;ve worked out with hundreds of HIM, looking to accelerate themselves and others.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve had countless conversations with yall here in the dashpax &#8211; conversations about my life, my career, my family, and my faith, among other things &#8211; and it&#8217;s proved to me that it&#8217;s not just the workouts that make us stronger. If it hadn&#8217;t been for the exceptional efforts put forth by Bevo, Greenspan, Snooki, Fokker, Jar Jar, Chisel, and a handful of others at our church&#8217;s Christmas party, I never would have heard of F3. Bevo, Gelding (moved to Ohio), and I were in small group together, and they really laid on the EH thick after that party.\u00a0 After about a month of foot dragging, hemming and hawing, a few I dunnos and I&#8217;m not so sures, I told them I&#8217;d meet them at Urban Assault (wtf is that?). I had no idea on this day 5 years ago that I&#8217;d stumble into something that would alter my life in such a positive manner; on 1\/12\/2018 I walked up to a group of 20 men using funny words and giving a particularly short gentleman a hard time, and walked away from that morning having had the most fun of any time I could recall since moving to Winston Salem about 18 months prior (<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.google.com\/document\/d\/1lSRzABHqN9Ns2YxfEbbaOLGGywcrAjgPUKUzTDTc3ks\/edit?usp=sharing\">here&#8217;s the backblast from that workout<\/a>).\u00a0 Since then, wordpress tells me that I&#8217;ve Qd over 130 workouts and posted to hundreds more&#8230;I&#8217;ve been the site Q at 2 different AOs, been asked to be the 1st F Q&#8230;but most importantly I&#8217;ve been empowered by all of you to be a leader in places other than F3.\u00a0 I could wax poetic for a few more stanzas, but the message wouldn&#8217;t be amplified any&#8230;I just want to simply say thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>YHC has, in my humble opinion, the perfect WIB workout.
