THA-THANG:
At each location we did 4 rounds of one different exercise for 1 minute each followed by another exercise. I.E. 1 minute of burpees followed by a run up the stairs

  • Sunsphere: Burpees, Merkins, Cobras, Carolina Dry Docks; each followed by a run up and down the stairs
  • Bridge over Cumberland: Squat Jumps, Smurf Jacks, Sumo Squats, Side Lunges; each followed by bear crawls across the bridge and a walk back to the starting point
  • Amphitheater: BBS, Flutterkicks, American Hammers, Jane Fondaes; each followed by crabwalks across the stage and a walk back to the starting point
  • Then we rinsed and repeated all the above, except we did it at the sunsphere and fountains and did 30 seconds of each exercise instead of 1 minute

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Shared a bit about the Sabbath as a spiritual discipline. Typically when I think of the Sabbath I think of how Jesus said that man was not made for the Sabbath, but that the Sabbath was made for man. I think we did to use this as a reason to not engage with the topic of Sabbath rest, saying that Jesus said we didn’t have to do it, which is true that He didn’t command it, but I think Jesus said this not to discredit the Sabbath but to point out its purpose. It was made specifically for man, meaning it is worth while and beneficial to us. The Sabbath is not only one of the Ten Commandments but is also the most elaborately described of the Ten Commandments. I also encouraged us to prioritize our rest and not to wait until we felt burnt out to stop, since waiting until the point of failure to stop and rest typically leads to unfruitful rest
