Started with “put one leg in front of the others” for a while. Mixed in a few “lift leg thingy’s” and “arm over your head hip hingers”. Then more put one leg in front of the others with a variety of partner exercises. Great effort from a group with 6 of the 8 having done the BRR or AMBRR this past weekend. And it was a beautiful crisp morning to boot.

Regarding the meaning of life, it’s a few things: Significance, coherence, and purpose: this includes the belief that your life matters, that it makes sense, and that you are pursuing goals.
Survival and reproduction. Realizing potential. And as a Christian, glorifying God by knowing Him, enjoying Him, and living a life that reflects His image through loving and serving others, ultimately finding true purpose and fulfillment in a relationship with Him.

Finally, why is Grease Monkey not in Slack. Can we get him added? I think he’s going to be around for a while…

Run season is in full swing and that called for some hills and distance, so we did a loooong and hilly BLIMP. For each round we did 20 reps of each exercise (5 reps of the at each end, and 5 reps each time we passed the midpoint).

Bonnie Blairs (L/R=1)
LSF (L/R=1)
Iron Mikes (L/R=1)
Mountain Climbers (L/R=1)
Plank Jacks (in/out=1)

Finished with 20 Squats and a loop around the parking lot. Over 4 miles covered. Mission accomplished. MIAGD.

Moseyed around and up the Regency Hill. Warm ups in the Chiesi parking lot.
Thing 1: alternating 5 Burpees/10 merkins at the medians down the hill, back up and then back down. Around the parking garage for squats and LBCs at the next medians
Thing 2: 7s on the Avenue of the Estates hill with jump squats at the top and mtn climbers at the bottom.
World’s sloppiest Indian run back to the flag for some some much appreciated Mary

12 Pax set out promptly at 0530 with a theme around celebrating the number 46 today. YHC gave a quick message about the mileage goal and off we went. 1 mile warmup with 46 seconds squat recovery. Level 1 and Level 2 were unlocked with random stops at times to achieve exactly 46 LBCs and 46 merkins. ✅
One might say the first 36 mins of the workout seemed rather random and unplanned like the Q took a page out of “Q’n by Francois” book.

The final stretch was all you got 1 mile run back to COT. Unlocking Level 46 today with an exact 4.6 mileage. ✅✅

Prayers to the men of SCary to be better Men at home and for Henry.

Make it a great Day Men!

Five HIMs gathered in Gloom on the first day in July.
We were fortunate to have Koka Booth Independence Day decorations up so we could properly say the pledge.
Next we moseyed over to a parking deck for some stretches, thang 1…
On the parking lot we did Double-Decker, Four Corners BLIMPS.
That left us just enough time to take the long-ish route back to the flag.
Announcements:
Hydration Event – Hump Day Happy Hour on Wed at MacGregor Draft House: First Pour at 5:30
1776 Convergence on Thurs at Ritter Park at 6:30
Best of luck to Hermes and his Q in LaLa Land and his activities with Suck Up out on the Left Coast.
MIAGD!

13 guys seeking a good sweat to kick off the weekend converged onto SWW this great morning. 6 for the EC, 4 for the run only option and 9 for the ME.
After a mile warm up loop, the 9 were treated to an admittedly FIA inspired workout, Partner Up, Partner 1 does 20 reps of an exercise while Partner 2 performs a hold (plank, squat, etc). Switch once P1 finishes. Once both done, then 20 merkins and mosey a lap (turned into sprint a lap the last 10 minutes)
Did 15 rounds of this with Merkins descending each round. 195 merkins in total.
Flawlessly executed by all.
Announcements: Get out and post this coming Wednesday for Summer Solstice.
Prayers for all Dads this weekend and for the ability to show our kids what a true Dad is.
5 star coffeeteria and fellowship to wrap it up.
MIAGD and Happy Fathers Day to all!

This week marks three years posting with F3 for me and I am grateful to have you all in my life.

The crowd was excellent today. The Grease Monkey was there and is as fast as you remember him being.

We took off for a warmup mosey longer than Burt would’ve liked. Did a Dora w/merkins, squats and LBCs…a pain train with burpees, Chill Cut Leap 🐸 and a couple AYG sprints in the parking lot to close it out before Mary.

Prayers up for a couple passings and health challenges folks in our community are struggling with.

I appreciate the ability to lead today.
