COUNT: 7
WARMUP:
Moseyed to front parking lot for some stretching. We also introduced Oak Ridge Hwy to the Monkey Humper.

THE THANG:
Visited each section of the parking lot where the PAX guessed the number of spots. Each section was assigned an exercise, and the reps determined by how far off the PAX guess was from the actual number of spots.

Workout attached.

Found a few parking spots I missed as we made our way around campus.

COT:
Shared a situation with my 2.0s where I didn’t initially want to engage with them while they were playing. I ultimately did, and could immediately tell how that improved their mood. Reminder that they won’t always want to play with their dad (mine are young), and we should take advantage of those opportunities while we can.

AO: mountainbiking
Q: Imaginary
PAX: Frosty
FNGs: None
COUNT: 2
WARMUP: Parked in the new parking lot and hoped we didn’t got locked in and that the No Trespassing sign was old.

ROUTE: Tried lower side of To-Hi and Hustle – too muddy. Frosty had to leave early, so solo up Contender to Challenger to recon loop around park area of Aspire. Took greenway to Virtue and out on Vim & Vigor. Upper trails were not muddy in most places.

MARY: Changed out of sweaty, muddy clothes.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Q calendar is open after next week – let’s keep the signups going.

COT: Deliverance
Remember not against us the iniquities of the past;
may your compassion quickly come to us… Psalm 79:8

Do you ever feel alone? Hopeless? In despair? Issues in us, our homes, communities and world can pile up, leaving us stuck in complex situations. Peace may seem out of reach, temptations strong, problems overwhelming. Evil can abound and despair surround. Yet, out of those depths, we can ask the Lord to deliver us!

God’s compassion is there for the asking! He is ever present. We can always call on God, in his great mercy, for deliverance, for divine help.

THE THANG:
Partnered up for a Dora style workout.

2 rounds, 100 each of:
– rows
– Snow angels
– Split squats
– side crunches
– Swings
– V ups

After round one we took a few minutes for some sled pulls.

Repeat Dora workout, and then finished with more sled pulls.

COT:
Borrowed a recent word shared by Stitch about listening to others. I’m terrible about remembering conversations with others which is ultimately me just not being fully engaged.

James 1:19
Proverbs 18: 2, 6-7, 13
