MARY

- Got some in and finished with some broga

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Shout out to the guys running Ragnar this weekend!

COT: I told a story about how my daughter encouraged me to participate in the Cactus to Clouds hike. The way she spoke to me and encouraged me is the same way that I speak to her. And it really opened my eyes — kids are just brutally honest and mirror how you treat them and how you talk to them. It was great to see how kids can reflect exactly how you talk and treat them.

THE THANG

Partner up:

COT: The last few weeks this phrase of "Day 1" has helped me navigate some tough family stuff, and has been very helpful shifting my mindset.

With that, I've been sitting with a story from John 12 where Jesus compares himself to a kernel of wheat when discussing his death, in that unless it is planted in the soil and dies, it remains alone. But if it dies, it produces a plentiful harvest.

The kernel has to let go of being a kernel… it needs to crack open, disappear into the dirt, and become unrecognizable before anything grows. The hardest part is nobody holding a seed and planting it gets to see the harvest first. You bury it on faith. The hardest part of the decision is letting go.

Now, relate that to your life… the comfortable version of you, the grudge, or the identity you've outgrown… It stays safe if you hang on to it… but it also stays small, and it stays alone.

So, my question I'll leave you with today is: What "shell" or protective comfort are you refusing to let go of? And will it be one day, or Day 1?

COT: "Peer pressure is good, when the right peers are creating the pressure." — Patrick Bet-David

The right peers encourage us to take risks. They encourage us to Get Right, seek Correction, and Accelerate. They encourage us to push past our limits. They encourage us to fail miserably. Surround yourself with the right people, who share your same values/principles/interests, and they will challenge you to get you to where you want to be as a man, a father, a husband, a friend, etc.

🏔️ CSAUP — Cactus 2 Clouds 🏔️

Q'd by Mulligan

- 8 PAX

THE THANG

- What a day we all had!!! There is officially a new Mother F@cker Mountain and it goes by the name of Mt. San Jacinto!!!!
- So much love, appreciation, and support shared by us all, and some amazing examples of selfless servant leadership exemplified on that mountain!!!

- Shout-out to Joe Exotic, who partnered up and stayed with the Q the second half of the first 10-mile ascent to keep him on path and moving up — without him the first 10 miles in 11 hours wouldn't have happened!
- Joe Exotic and Banana Boat both selflessly left water along the trail for the six who were on pace to run out before the Ranger Station Plateau — a God send!
- Rosita kept pace with Moonshine and Prius, guiding them along the way, sharing supplies to keep Prius moving, and ensuring the three of them found success safely!
- Giant shout-out and kudos to Fluffer and Yackie Moon, who absolutely killed it and were the only two to make the peak and back — completing the most difficult day hike in the nation. Absolute studs!
- MVP shout-out to Buckeye for making the drive and meeting the crew at the Ranger station with refill supplies, getting in 3–5 miles at elevation alongside Joe Exotic!
- Banana Boat — insight, guidance, support, training assistance, and presence for us all. On his third trip up this mountain, none of us could have done it without him. Thank you!!

- Personally, I did not complete the total 22 miles to the peak and down, and I have zero regrets. I'm very proud of what I accomplished, and I would have never even considered this challenge if it weren't for the men of F3 Temecula. Thank you to all who helped along the way — you are my brothers and I love you all!!!

COT: I am so proud of the men that chose to follow my lead and challenge themselves with one of the most difficult physical challenges they will ever experience — so grateful for you men and this group! Gratitude will take us all far in life!!!

Don't sleep on the COT portion of F3: men are listening to what you have to say, and whether they voice it or not, what you share is impacting them. It's impacting me. Keep it up.

COT: Preparing for the Storm

We all understand the idea of preparing for a rainy day. We save money because we know unexpected expenses will come. We buy insurance because we know accidents happen. We prepare financially for storms we hope never arrive.

But what about the rest of our lives? Are we making deposits into our faith? Our health? Our relationships? Our character? Our minds?

The truth is, life's storms are inevitable. None of us gets to choose if they come — only how prepared we'll be when they do.

That's why I believe in having non-negotiables. Waking up early. Spending time in prayer. Reading. Journaling. Exercising. Taking time to reflect before the world starts pulling us in every direction.

None of those things seem life-changing on a single day. But every one of them is a deposit. And over time, those small daily deposits become the reserves we draw from when life gets difficult.

The storm is never the time to build the foundation. The foundation is built while the sun is shining.

There's a quote I love: "You don't rise to the occasion during life's storms. You fall to the level of your preparation."

So my challenge to all of us is simple: Don't just prepare your bank account for a rainy day. Prepare your heart. Prepare your mind. Prepare your body. Prepare your spirit.

Because when the storm comes — and it will — you'll be grateful for every deposit you made long before the clouds rolled in.

🏜️ The Canyon — Unchained (VQ) ⛓️

Q'd by Down Unda

- 20 PAX — VQ for Down Unda

WARM-UP

- Five Core Principles — punctuated by 25 Merkins to make sure everyone was awake
- WARM-O-RAMA (IC): Side Straddle Hops, Imperial Walkers, Willie Mays Hays, W**d Pickers, Slow Squats

THE THANG

- From the goal line, a circuit built around carrying, pushing, dragging, crawling, and eventually sprinting away from the weight:
- 15 WWIII → Cindy Sled to the penalty box → 15 Goblet Squats → Murder Bunnies back → 15 Merkins → Bear Crawl to the penalty box → 15 Big Boy Sit-Ups → Sprint home → Repeato
- Then an Indian Run, then frisbee in the gloom — two teams, a dark soccer field, and just enough visibility to make catching the thing interesting

ANNOUNCEMENTS: See 3rd F channel — Dadventure Gold Mine Oct 24

COT: BREAK THE CHAINS

The weight of Cindy became a pretty fitting picture for the morning.

All of us carry something. Addiction. Trauma. Woundedness. Shame. Fear. Anger. Old habits. Things from our past that we've learned to live with instead of dealing with.

But if we want to Get Right, eventually we have to identify those chains and start doing the work to break them.

Because the goal isn't freedom just for ourselves. We need to become free so we can show up fully for the people who matter most — our wives, our children, our families, our brothers, and our communities.

Challenge for the week: What is one chain you need to start tackling this week?

Don't solve everything. Just identify it and take the first step toward freedom.

Get Right. Break the chains. Be free to Lead Right.

Thanks to the PAX for letting me step up for my VQ. SYITG. 👊

🪨 Stone Cutters — CHAD1000X... 700X 🪨

Q'd by Belding

- 8 PAX

WARM-UP

- Road pre-run

THE THANG

- Weighted step-ups: 2 minutes of work, 15 seconds of rest, repeat
- Approximately 700 reps — a steady lower-body grind that kept the heart rate up

ANNOUNCEMENTS

- Nantan updates

COT: Hero Tribute — Navy SEAL Senior Chief Chad Wilkinson served our country for more than 21 years. He died by su***de on October 29, 2018, following struggles associated with repeated deployments, traumatic brain injuries, blast injuries, and PTSD. CHAD1000X honors his life and legacy while raising awareness of veteran su***de prevention.

Today, we pushed through the monotony of stepping up, rep after rep. Sometimes in life, though, growth requires us to lower ourselves and take a posture of humility. Bowing our heads, admitting our struggles, and accepting help take strength too.

A reminder to check on our brothers, speak honestly about our struggles, and reach out when the weight becomes too heavy to carry alone.

A big shout-out to our downrange brother Cutter for sharing about his journey and his beautiful bride, Cori. 🙏❤️

COT: Standing on the goal line, you can't see every detail of the journey. You see the next marker: the 18, then midfield, then home. Life works the same way. We become overwhelmed when we focus on the entire field. The men who succeed focus on the next step, attack it, then move to the next. Day after day, step after step, an entire field gets covered. The same is true for becoming a better husband, father, friend, and leader. Don't worry about the whole field. Focus on the next line.
