Introduction

The chain is only as strong as the weakest link. Come out and not only get stronger but make your brothers stronger as well. Don’t let anyone tell you life is not a race, it is, it’s just not run alone. Many more words of wisdom to follow.

Warm-O-Rama

  • Tappy Taps x15

  • Plank, rotate to right hand then back to left

The Thang

The Thang was a team race around the outside of the Bear (about a mile), broken up into 2 teams. The rules:

  • All running between AOs was Indian Runs
  • Couldn’t move on from the AO until the whole team was there
  • Team had to add up to the totals at each AO
  • The individual doesn’t matter
  • Have to do the circuit twice

The four different AOs that were hit:

  1. Playground – 30 pullups, 60 Durkins, 90 dips
  2. Hill – Dora with half the team running the other half counting; 60 big boys, 60 burpees, 60 bonnie blairs
  3. Tennis courts – 12 sideline to sideline partner wheelbarrows
  4. Parking Lot – 100 Thursters, 100 Rows, 100 Goblet Squats, and 100 Curls

Circle of Trust

I was thinking what makes F3 so great and it’s being out here with you men. It is making us better and more importantly showing us how to be actual men. As scripture says:

“Let us make Man to our image and likeness. And let him rule over the fish of the sea, and the flying creatures of the air, and the wild beasts, and the entire earth, and every animal that moves on the earth”

We were made out fo the image of God himself. Take what you do every morning, building up your mind, you willpower, your body and your fellowship to go achieve great things. This a great way to start the day, but it’s what you do out there that really matters. I’ll end with a quote from Pope Benedict:

“The world offers you comfort, but you were not made for comfort, you were made for greatness”.

 

Pray requests were made and ended in an our father

Way to go gentlemen, pushing each other and making everyone stronger in the process. It sure was fun and I’m glad to run the race with you all.
