F3 The Snooze – June 16, 2023

After a brief warmup we headed to the field behind the McAdenville YMCA for a little DORA action.

When that was finished we ran back to the park in McAdenville where we played F3 Wordle.

So for each letter that was correct and in the correct spot we would do 10 reps of an exercise.  For each one that was correct and in the wrong spot we would do 20 reps.  For each one that was wrong we would do 30 reps.  The first word was DREDD and they guessed it on the sixth try. I told them that the words I had selected were related to F3. The second word was Faith, but we ran out of time.
