Introduction
Pre-Blast – Thursday 10/13 0515 The Mammoth – Lot of great options tomorrow including a VQ! – If joining YHC tomorrow at this bad ass AO works out for your schedule/plans…I would love to have you. Bring your coupons and be ready for a little bit of everything. AOVQ so we won’t stray too far as I am still learning the lay of the land! Drop that HC in the thread!
Got a message early from Road Trip. He woke up feeling like crap so he was going to pull his HC and have Aladdin cover the 6. I am glad he made the right choice and listened to his body and took care of his health. Sometimes that is the toughest decision we need to make in the morning.
Nice little chill in the air but I am thinking/hoping we took care of that pretty quick. Blinky challenged Aladdin to use the Big boy coupon and I couldn’t look like a bitch at my own Q … so BigBoy coupon it is!
Went over the 5 core principles, disclaimer, mission statement, and credo. Hit play on the music…lets go!

After all PAX went up the hill, we did 20 reps of whatever exercise they missed while they were going up the hill .
Group of 5 PAX sideways toss up the hill. Once a PAX tossed the ball sideways to the guy next to him, he ran up to the front of the line. Did this up and down the hill.

CoT –
Life without passion is simply existence.
I have been reading a book that Donkey passed over to me. I know Aladdin and some other PAX have read it before too. Endure. It is written by Cameron Hanes. There have been a lot of cool things in the book. A lot of inspiration parts of his story. I have been writing down various quotes/messages and this was one of his early quotes that stuck with me.
Find your passion. For some of us, including me, it is F3 and getting out and after it every morning. For others it could be running, music, family, work, etc, etc. Whatever it is…find it. Enjoy it. So many people out there do not find their passion and are simply sleep walking through life. We only have so long on this planet. It would be such a shame to life a plain/mundane life during these peak years of our life.
Almost as important…once you find your passion, SHARE IT. You never know who out there may just find a similar love for what you are doing.

Lot of top PAX (in my opinion) who joined me today and I was honored and humbled. When the HC’s started to roll in I knew I was going to have to bring it. This is a fun AO and we barely even explored it. I will definitely be working this one into my rotation.
Honored – BC
