May 28. Members of F3, a national network of free, peer-led workouts for men, honored the fallen on Memorial Day next to the Veteran’s Monument at Rotary Plaza in downtown Cornelius. Their mission is to “plant, grow, and serve small men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership.” Locally, F3 serves the communities Cornelius, Davidson and Huntersville, as well as Charlotte. The three Fs stand for Fitness, Fellowship and Faith — the last of which is defined as not one specific religion or faith system, but a belief in something beyond oneself.
