F3 Davidson
F3 is a national network of free, peer-led workouts for men. Our mission is to plant, grow, and serve small men’s workout groups for the invigoration of male community leadership. Started in 2011 in Charlotte, North Carolina, F3 expanded quickly to the Davidson / Huntersville / Cornelius area.
Started in 2011 in Charlotte, North Carolina, F3 expanded quickly to the Huntersville/Cornelius area. We currently lead 33 workouts each week through the volunteer efforts of men whose lives have been changed by their involvement with F3.
The three Fs in our name stand for Fitness, Fellowship and Faith — the last of which we define as not one specific religion or faith system, but simply a belief in something outside oneself.

I would like to invite you all to the 3rd annual Soggy Bottoms backyard ultra on May 2, 2026. This is a fun day for all paces where you can run, ruck or walk and trail loop at my families farm in Lincolnton.
We will be raising funds for the Northlake House and Ranger’s family. A donation of any size gains access to the race and 100% of your donation goes right to Ranger and the purchase therapy games for the residents at the Northlake House.
The event is from 8:00am-4:00pm with options to join half or the whole day.
I would love for you guys to come spend the day and raise money for our man, Ranger.
