great words from Dagger. We ended up doing about 2 minutes of open prayer accidentally, which turned out to be great, and people chimed in with their own prayers.

Naked Man Moleskin:

My #2 favorite F3 2023 moment happened behind the Hollywood workout (maybe #3 behind the Buttercup water incident). Mid-workout the group was together headed down the end of the Trader joes corridor to do 15 burpees. We were all very into the workout, dripping sweat, running together intensely, and music going. About halfway down the corridor/hallway a homeless woman nonchalantly turned the corner and faced us. When they turned the corner they saw us running toward them and instantly hit flight mode and let out this death scream while running away. I found this so funny (not because we scared a homeless person) because picture putting yourself in their shoes. Its 7 something am on a Saturday, you’re going about your day and you turn the corner to see a group of us running at you mid-workout. Plus you add in what appeared to be drugs and maybe hallucinogens. Quite a scary site.
