  • 5 Burpees (the nickel)
  • 10 Merkins if at an odd mile marker (e.g., 0.25) or 10 Big Boys if at an even mile marker (the dime)
  • 25 Big Boys if at an odd mile marker or 25 Merkens if at an even mile marker (the quarter).

The last man reaching each mile marker should run on through to the next mile marker without doing the exercises.  In that way, he will not always be the last man to a mile marker.

We will finish when we have returned to mile marker 0.0.

Mosey back to AO.

Four men.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Before going into Jerusalem to be crucified, Jesus prayed on the Mount of Olives.  He asked his disciples to pray as well.  When Jesus had finished his own lengthy prayer, he returned to find all of his disciples sleeping.  He told them to awake.

We often are guilty of “sleeping” before our God, not being aware of His presence, of the miracles that occur around us, of how He may be wanting to speak to us in our everyday activities.  We need to be awake to these miracles, these whispers, these opportunities.  Throughout our days, we can enhance our own “awareness” by asking, “What is God trying to show me here, what might God be saying to me now?”  We can even do this in times of hardship.  God wants us to hear Him, even at times of suffering.  Be awake for His voice, His presence, His love.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM
We reap what we sow, but not in the same season.

This is a biblical principle that we would do well to heed ourselves, and train our children in.  It explains why it is so easy to pursue unrighteous, unhealthy, “bad” things and hard to pursue righteous, healthy, good things.  The delayed fruit causes us to be short-sighted, and we pay a price for it in the long haul.  This is why long term goals couple with short term grit is critical for growth.  Keep your eyes fixed ahead and do simply do the next right thing.  The fruit will come, in it’s due season.

“Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.” Galatians 6:9
