F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER.
I am not a professional.  I have a phone.  Workout as injuries allow.

WARM-O-RAMA:

Happy Jacks (5)
Tempo Merkins (10)
Dead Bugs (10)

THA-THANG:
Mosey to the track.

On the track, there are nine stations.

4. Flutter Kicks/Hello Dolly
5. Diamond/Wide Merkins
6. Smurf Jacks/Lunge
7. LBC/Box Cutters
8. Merkins/BBS
9. Dips/ Carolina Dry Docks

Running around the track stop at every station and do 10 of the exercises. Second time around the track do the second exercise listed. If there is one. Third time go back to first. And so forth. If you want, you are allowed to pass a cone and not do that exercise. But every cone passed increases the number of exercises by 10. If you pass 1 cone, then you do 20 at the next cone. You then drop back to 10. So, you can make this go as you want. You could run the entire time and not do any exercises. On your honor. Work yourself out as hard or easy as you want.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

From Dredd’s blog The Collision Learner and Chapter Five from Minivan Centurion Good Drivers
“If a guy cuts you off in traffic, you can take that as “drop dead” and respond in kind. Or you can just assume that he is a bad driver and keep driving reasonably. If you choose the former, that means that you too become a bad driver and may provoke another negative response from him. A good driver wouldn’t do that because it might disrupt him from getting to his destination safely, which is the whole purpose in driving, to get where you are going in one piece.”
With your goals, don’t let the bad change you in a way that could keep you from where you want to end up.

Run/Train to Win!!!!
1 Corinthians 9:24-27
Don’t you realize that in a race everyone runs, but only one person gets the prize? So run to win! All athletes are disciplined in their training. They do it to win a prize that will fade away, but we do it for an eternal prize. So I run with purpose in every step. I am not just shadowboxing. I discipline my body like an athlete, training it to do what it should. Otherwise, I fear that after preaching to others I myself might be disqualified.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

God has given us the Holy Spirit to help us along our paths. So long as what we are doing, or the path we are trying to explore is not in violation of the small still interior voice, we are probably alright. If the action or considered action causes us any sort of distress, it is most likely not in accordance with God’s plans for us.

 

MOLESKIN:
For the sick and elderly.  For our brothers battling illness and their wives.
