1. Coreshredder
We did 10 core exercises in 3 rounds. Do 3 merkins between each exercise. Round 1 – 15 of each, round 2 – 10 of each, round 3 – 5 of each. We got to hear some of my Friday fun track until my speaker died. (Lame)

2. Mini loops
We had 2 cards with 6 different exercises each. Do 10 of an exercise and take a quick mosey lap move on to the next exercise on list followed by a lap each time. We were able to finish both cards and have a friendship mosey back to the flag ending exactly at 6:15 thanks to my superior planning skills.

COT:
Read John 1:1-3
These words are pretty crazy when you think about it. Jesus is God. Jesus was there at the beginning. Jesus actually was the one who made everything. There’s no getting around it this is a crazy truth that Christians must believe. We are not given an option in scripture to accept Jesus as only a great moral teacher in a pluralistic group of other religions. Jesus believed that he was God and savior of the world and so did his first followers. What do you think about this? Have you ever considered it from this angle? He was either crazy or who he said he was. If we believe Jesus is who he said that he was, we believe in something pretty wild and crazy. But just because something is crazy doesn’t mean it isn’t true.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Ruck Events!
COT:We talked about the trust-based contract between a Q and the PAX and it’s similar between the PAX and F3… the “As long as” phrase. I will continue to follow you “As long as” that trust isn’t breached. F3 has a special formula, a secret sauce, and whatever it is, it works, so my approach is “Don’t try to fix it!” Maintain the strategy of growth, but make sure that the fundamental aspects remain unchanged (This is the Weasel Shaker in me coming out…); free of charge, open to all men, welcoming and encouraging, etc. etc. It has had a huge impact just like it is in my life, and in many others’ lives. Aye!
