Introduction

Woke up to rain pounding down outside but we don’t get up for easy in F3 so I dragged my a$$ out of bed on for my 42nd birthday beat down.  5 other HIMs came rolling in & prepared for the impending beat down.  It was nice to see some familiar faces on virtual & also some new faces I have missed seeing!

We quickly got to work!

The Thang

Thang 1:  42nd Birthday Bash

  • The Q will call on each PAX to pick 3 numbers. The Q will draw those corresponding numbers from a deck of exercise cards.  If the 3 numbers are over 21 (black jack) we will perform 42 reps of each exercise if the the number is under 21 the PAX gets to choose which of the 3 exercises they want to remove from completing.  After the 42 reps of each exercise are completed then complete broad jumps for 21 yards & then Bear crawl 21 yards back to garage.
  • MODIFICATION:  If you are staying in garage or basement you either SSH or jump rope until the 6 is back.
  • After each of the 5 PAX’s had a chance at a hand of “Black Jack” Dilly called dealers choice for the last round calling on the PAX to complete 42 burpees.

Thang 2:  11’s

  • With a little time left we did 10 reps of shoulder press then 1 coupon curl; 9 shoulder then 2 curl.  Rinse & repeat until the ladder is complete.

Naked Man Moleskin

It is all in a state of mind.  There is a 10 day time period every year I celebrate some of the largest milestones in my life.  April 23rd Anniversary, April 25th my b-day, & May 1st my 1st child’s b-day.  I look forward to this time every year as it usually involves a lot of parties, vacations, time with extended family etc.  However that is not happening this year.  When I thought about this a week ago I became a bit depressed that these things would not be happening & started to feel sorry for myself.  Then I realized that I still have my job, I can still pay my bills, all my family is healthy, & I am going to celebrate with the ones that mean the absolute most to me (including you guys).  It is important now more than ever we focus on the positives & not the negatives. The things we are grateful for not that we regret.  The things that bring us joy not sadness b/c not only for you but everyone you interact with your “state of mind” matters.

 

Life’s battles don’t always go

To the stronger or faster man;

But soon or later the man who wins

Is the man who thinks he can

 

Dear lord thank you for this opportunity to wake up early in the gloom & experience your greatness.  We are humbled for the opportunity you give us every day to be in your glory & serve you as leaders in our community.  Watch over those that are not as fortunate as many of us & give them healing & strength in their struggles.  In your name we pray.  Amen!
