The Thang
Walked the loop around Black Panther, which is about 1.8 miles, stopping along the way and doing exercises. First stop was the hill and we did Murder Bunnies up the hill with the rucks. I called them Murder Rucks. When we got to top of hill, we did 52 reps of overheads with our rucks and 52 kettlebell swings. Put our rucks on and did Bernie Sanders down the hill.We then rucked until we got to middle of baseball fields. We did 53 Merkins and 53 LBC’s. We then went to flags and only had a couple of minutes left for Mary. We did ABC’s (spelling out alphabet with our legs).
Circle of Trust
COT was to make sure that you get checked out health wise. I am a procrastinator and have been putting off getting a sleep study, heart scan, and a trust. I haven’t been sleeping well for since i can remember and have been getting 20 min or so of deep sleep a night. After comparing it to other PAX, i realized it isn’t the amount of sleep but quality. I am going in tomorrow night for sleep study. Also will schedule my heart scan today and work on our families trust. Thanks guys for coming out in the gloom today to celebrate my birthday, it means alot to me. I also have had problems setting goals and accomplishing them. Last year i reached my goal of 150 posts and this year my goal is 250 posts, which i am still working on and will hopefully get by end of the month. I also had a goal this year to compete in a OCR race, which i was able to accomplish with the help of being pushed by trailer park. It is important to set goals and make sure you reach them.
Prayer-Prayers went out to my brother Dave, who is recovering from skin cancer of his scalp. Since he had his scalp removed, he had to have a skin graft that lasted 8.5 hours. Also prayers go to the family that lost their daughter to a car jacking and hopefully they are able to find her in the near future. We then said the Lord’s Prayers.
Naked Man Moleskin
Was a great morning with the temperature in high 60’s and forecast said it was going to rain night before but fortunately there weren’t any clouds. Besides the great mumble chatter that we had rucking around BP, we did do some workout exercises. Lot of the guys said to not Q on my birthday anymore since the reps and age (52) are getting up there. One thing I do like is alot of reps. Feel like doing alot of reps make you more sore. The murder bunnies up the hill with the ruck was very difficult since the ruck is alot lower than a coupon. I feel the more i Q, the more I am getting better at public speaking, which has always been a problem for me. I feel fortunate that I am able to come out to the gloom and workout almost everyday as I get older.
