Dredd knew that New Year’s is a good time to take stock in where you are in life.  That is why 13 years ago, as he identified sad clown syndrome, he chose New Year’s Day as a motivating day to launch this thing we now call F3.  Sad clown syndrome is still prevalent.  It’s grasp on men is unshakable without constantly assessing where we are on our journey.  Many have started but have fallen off the path.  And although the syndrome is multifaceted one of the main aspects is a tendency toward physical indifference and decline.   That’s why the first section of Q source is titled “Get Right.”

As your new 1st F Q I am here to help, advise, and motivate your 1st F.  To get the year off on a good start I thought it would be a good idea to assess our current level of fitness.  You cannot know where you are going unless you know where you are.

On New Year’s Day at 7 am at Martha Rivers we will have a Convergence/Assessment.  All other AO’s will be closed. This will not be an annihilation type workout but rather a true you vs you workout.  How fast are you, how strong are you what kind of endurance do you have?  Did you slide at the end of 2023?  Are you stagnating in your growth?  Or are you at the top of your game?  Now is the time to find out where you are and determine where you want to be.  There will be multiple proctors there to encourage and provide candor on form and technique.  I also plan to repeat this assessment later in the year to track your progress.  Now is the time to stop making excuses and start making changes.  So set your alarm, shake off the hangover, grab a block, and drag your lazy ass down to Martha’s House on Monday January 1 and recognize that now is the best time for you get right.
