We kicked off the weekend with a smoke show! The Wet W***y shared leadership team put together a heckuva a beatdown for our M’s and 2.0’s, with equal parts fun and hard work. We had everything from tire flips, field goal kicks, full-size hungry hungry hippo, tug-o-wars and oh so much more! Dr. Thunder brought the thunder with a great COT to close us out!

And of course, which you're putting in that kind of hard work, you've got to refuel afterwards! Breakfasteria featured a bevy of tasty treats and beverages!

What a blast it was to share a bit of what we do in the gloom with our concentrica! Excellent planning, prep and ex*****on led to smiles for days and questions about when the next one is! Great work, men!

We had a birthday Q at The Levee this week. But it was no ordinary birthday. No, we welcomed Milwaukees Best (or Beast, as he’s often called in the gloom) into “Honor” status as he turned 70!!!

Age truly is just a number when it comes to Beast. He’s still rucking, bear crawlin’, kicking butt, and taking names with the best of them. But more importantly, he’s known for his far-reaching impact both in and out of the gloom.

He pours himself out as a whetstone, leads the charge through countless service and fundraising initiatives, and somehow still finds time to be a trophy husband along the way.

We tip our hats and gladly give “Honor” to a man we’re blessed to call a brother and HIM.

🚨NEW SITE ANNOUNCEMENT🚨

Launched last Thursday, Cottonwood Valley meets Tuesday’s and Thursday’s from 5:15am-6:15am at Leonard Park. Format: standard 45-minute bootcamp workout.

Site Q, Lawrence, shared this strong message with the pax at the launch:

“This name is rooted in the ground where we gather and the community we serve. It comes from the two towering cottonwood trees at Leonard Park and from the city of Valley Park.
Those trees represent strength, endurance, and deep roots. Valley Park represents community, resilience, and the men and families we’re called to lead and support.
Cottonwoods stand tall through storms, dig roots deep, and provide shade for others. That’s the kind of men we aim to become here—strong in adversity, grounded in purpose, and a source of encouragement for those around us.
The Valley reminds us that growth often happens in the low places—the hard seasons, the grind, the moments when we’re tested.
Cottonwood Valley is more than a location. It’s a place where men come to get stronger, build brotherhood, and sharpen one another.
Welcome to Cottonwood Valley. Now let’s get to work.”

Plant | Grow | Serve
This is the way!

Yesterday morning, 4-29-2026 84 HIMs across the greater St Louis area gathered to honor the legacy of Jason Richards, known as Falcon in the gloom.

As we gathered locally on the field he loved at Rockwood Summit, 100’s of men at dozens of AO’s across F3 Nation gathered to take on the Falcon Beatdown to honor man they never met in a town they have never been.

Cause that’s what we do, we lock arm in arm to support our brothers and never leave a man behind, and never leave him where we found them.

If you’re a man looking for something more - more purpose, more brotherhood, more out of yourself -come find us in the gloom.

This weekend we had the privilege of hosting founder Kyle Depiesse for a ruck + workshop.

We opened with a 3-mile ruck in the rain (aka perfect operating conditions), then stepped into Kyle’s “Living Art Gallery”—a powerful time to pause, reflect, and dig into the stuff we usually avoid.

Real conversations. No surface-level. The kind that build stronger bonds and deeper trust.

That’s just a taste of the impact of Guys Trip—and it’s a big part of why we show up in the gloom.

This experience was earned. Huge thanks to Ralph, founder of MABA (Make America Burpee Again), for awarding it to our region after having the most number of PAX to complete all 3,100 burpees.

Grateful for both Ralph and Kyle. If you haven’t checked out yet, do it! Life-changing, impactful work happening there.

Peer-led isn’t just something we talk about–it’s how we operate at every level of F3. From leading beatdowns to stepping into Site Q and beyond, leadership is passed hand-to-hand.

Pierce Morgan has exemplified Sua Sponte leadership and individual initiative during his time as Wonderland’s Site Q. Congrats on a job well done! 👏🏻

This morning he passed the baton to the next man up, Silver Sneakers, and we couldn’t be more excited for this HIM to take on the role and help pave the next 43’ for Wonderland!

This Is The Way!

10 Meramec pax represented the region at F3 Spirit of St. Louis annual Huckleberry CSAUP this past weekend. This is an incredible event which touches on all 3 F’s, with killer beatdowns led by Q’s from across the Mega Region, a fantastic breakfasteria and a fundraising opportunity for The Covering House.

Our resident high impact “Yeti” OfficeSpace (who also serves as one of our region’s 3rd F Qs) offered up his gorgeous beard for The Big Shave. Pax were able to bid for opportunities to take a swipe at OfficeSpace’s beard with the clippers (see second pic for the “before”). All funds going directly to TCH.

Over $1,500 was raised on the spot! High impact!

Congrats to our brothers in on another epic event. The Huckleberry gets bigger and better every year!

Local Rockwood Summit High School student, Quincy Rainey, is battling heart failure and waiting on a heart transplant. So the men of Meramec did what we do and stepped up to support Quincy and his family.

35 men toed the line this morning, in the cold, wind and rain (perfect operating weather in our book) to take on the Cowboy Challenge and raise funds for the Rainey’s.

This is F3. This is male community leadership. This is the way.

The fundraiser closes tonight, if you would like to help: https://app.99pledges.com/fund/F3HOTMOMS

🇺🇸 9/11 Memorial Beatdown – Never Forget 🇺🇸

This morning we honored the lives lost on September 11, 2001—civilians, first responders, and heroes who ran toward danger when the world stood still.

Every rep and every step was a tribute to their courage.

F3 is more than a workout—it’s brotherhood, discipline, and strength forged together in the gloom. If you’ve been waiting to step in, there’s no better time. Come push yourself, find your brothers, and never forget.
