Introduction

I walked the grounds of Dark Tower on Monday night with my dog “Charlie” to plan our beat down. My plan was to do “Pearls on a String” along the east side of the River Walk and a Dora using the short side of the hill. So with my chalk in hand and my dog leash in the other, I marked down our workout at different stops along the path. Funny, I got quite a few looks and disturbed many young couples enjoying romance on park benches…

Sprints up the Hill 3x.

Circle of Trust

Flush gave us our announcements and noted the good works of Ronda Rousey & Cousin Eddie being led by these fine men. I did mention to the PAX that if you are looking to help people in need to consider the requests from our own homebound services channel and there are plenty of opportunities to serve WSFP & L&F.  I asked the PAX for prayer requests and we ended with an Our Father.

Naked Man Moleskin

The HC’s were slow in coming on and I remembered something Nair had said at Q Source about feeling the anxiety if no one HC’s for your planned workout or HC’s in abundance. I was just going to roll with whatever the PAX gave me and low and behold Flush & Aladdin put out an all call and here comes the support.  I arrived at DT around 4:45 am tp make sure my chalked up course was still in place. Wine in the Box pulls up next to me and we do a little EC ruck and meet up with Ronda Rousey who joins in. Mr. Nice Guy broke his HC at IL to give a little support, what a nice guy… To go to a different workout and take a chance at 5:15am, to go where the numbers are needed is noted. To all F3 men and especially the ones at DT today, you are awesome and humbling!  Thank you for your support.

See y0u in the Gloom.
