It was an honor to lead you men this morning. The dome held out and the only thing falling was reps and sweat!

As you take this day off, for most, reflect on how lucky we are to have the opportunity to get up and do the Murph. We can get up early and run freely around SCary, enjoy fellowship with friends, and even pray or speak freely at the end of it all.

John 15:13. “Greater love has no one than this: to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” This verse embodies the spirit of Memorial Day. Many gave all to keep these freedoms for us. Let’s not forget that!

Love you guys! MIAGD!

Yogi was the Q and led the charge with 52 Card Pickup! Each PAX pulled a card in rotating fashion. Diamonds resulted in diamond merkins, clubs required squats, hearts were burpees and spades were WWII’s. Within each suit ace = 15 reps, kings = 13 reps, queen = 12 reps, jack = 11, 10 = 10, 9 =9 and so on. Let’s not forget the Joker = 10 of any choice exercise. The deck was split in half with one stack uphill and the other down hill with an 80 yard hustle in between. All PAX pulled cards.

Many thanks to HGTV for organizing Honor Week!

At the end of the workout Yogi offered words of wisdom encouraging all not to hold it in and to lean on your brothers in arms, church family and others during hard times.

Announcements:
Kiffin let us know that Tuesday at Just Dough It they will be running F3 Tokens to Henry’s House. Henry is 9 years old and just beat stage 4 cancer!

Kitty Litter let us know that Monday at 88MPH we will begin The Murph and run down to Ritter do some stuff and run back to Waverly Place.

Prayers:
Life Alert just getting back from vacation working through family conflict.

Pickup mentioned Prayers for those in memory of veterans and those who have given all for our country this Memorial Day Weekend.

9 started with the pledge and a group to get things going.
A mosey and the a Ring of Fire. Multiple rapid fire exercises were had.
Moseyed to the hill and a story was told of how Baylor University came from the pits of basketball success to winning a national championship using the JOY method. Jesus, Others, Yourself. 7s were then done on the hill.
Moseyed over to the water tower and performed merkins and jump squats in the mailbox drill.
Moseyed back to the flag with COT and words of wisdom.
Positive attitude and being an example. How we treat others, how we react to adversity, how we act as Christians.
Finished with a group clap and prayer .
Thanks for coming out enjoy the day.

What’s Up Scary!

A very pleasant morning it was over in the land of up lighted $2M+ houses, pineapples and doggy treat vending machines (WTF).

21 gathered for the ME and I was thrilled with the group of men who decided to join me at JIU this am. A solid group of guys I wish I saw more often (gotta get over to Scary more often).

Started with a 1 mike pre run with Amway, Astro, Chipper, Kitty Litter and Home Grown. EHarmony was out on a ruck.

Pledge.

Standard Warm Up.

Mosey to the Big House Neighborhood for Mr T. We found some hills along with our inside voice (even Yogi and me) and worked the T along with a POS.

We all (we almost all) did 5 burpees every time the words What’s Up were said. I think we did about 40 extras.

Back to the park for a flawless Motivator.

Wrapped up with a set of 140s. Joe Smiff was confused. I really miss both Joe’s and JP’s voices. Smooth.

COT.
21 Pax.

Praises for a young Hank (middle schooler friend of Fleder family) who just wrapped up Chemo for his cancer. There was a big celly. God is good.

Prayers for Yogi who is working through some family and personal challenges. Keep your head up, Yogi!

Closed with a Prayer for Friends.

HGTV asked me to share some wisdom. For me, its be yourself and be thankful for the great stuff we have with our F3 Community. It’s the best.

Later
MIAGD.

Some Ran, Others also Ran.

2 loops – 3 stations. Started as partners, ended as a group. Some gave all, some didn’t. Shoulders are tight.

Great to be out with you all.

Three for the blue collar one mile EC. Wings showed up on time and brought two seminarians that live in Texas who lodged lakeside at the Wings estate for the week whilst taking a class at Shepherd’s seminary.

Mosey, warmups, mosey, pickle with a cherry and CDDs/LBCs, then balls to the wall and squats, then 60%/80%/100% runs x 6.

Much to the YHC Astro’s chagrin another FNG named Jared was not named Subway. 0 for 2!

YHC is grateful for the opportunity to lead this fine group of HIM on his 4 year F3 anniversary. The beatdown itself was a standard IC Light beatdown (11s on the hill and 4 corners with legs and core primary focus), but this one meant more to YHC for some reason. The workouts are a great opportunity to improve one’s self and an opportunity to encourage PAX around you, but the bond and friendships that form as a result are life changing. YHC had that on his mind the entire workout. You all are loved and appreciated more than you know. Keep up the good work SCary!

Continued prayers for Petey and Yogi and a new prayer request for YHC’s best friend Chris who was diagnosed last week with prostate cancer.

High Respects and Honors next week. Get you a six pack they say…

MIAGD fellas!!!

The dome held surprisingly well. We walked around and found 9 covered stairwells. Spotted a 10th but didn’t traverse it. Oofda picked up some trash. We should have been safer crossing Kildaire. Solved numerous world problems.

An assortment of upper body and core focused exercises were executed throughout Ritter Park. Some Murph prep was also completed to ensure the PAX are ready for Memorial Day. Finished with some stretching. A good overall workout with zero running.

6 showed up for the Wednesday night meetup at WELD. YHC arrived first so I have the honor of writing the backblast. Good discussions about work, life and AI were enjoyed. Beautiful spring evening.
