ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Leadership Summit
Hardship Hill

COT:
Hardship Hill is a race that is fun and good for F3, but today I want to remind us all why we actually do it.

Hardship Hill raises money for Operation Enduring Warrior that supports combat disabled veterans. They come to the race from out of state and bring a team. Some of the veterans they serve will share their testimonies that are incredible.

Then, their able bodied team members will run the race in a Pro Mask (gas mask) that severely restricts their airflow and makes the task much harder. They do this to show us the hardships that our veterans deal with even if those wounds are invisible.

If you can’t attend the race, but want to support OEW, you can donate to them here: enduringwarrior.networkforgood.com/projects/114843-main-website-page

1 Timothy 6:10, Luke 18:18-27
Money is necessary, but we must be careful about our relationship with it. As Paul points out, money is not the root of evil, but the Love of money. This requires constant regrounding and cross checking. In my experience, one of the most helpful actions you can take to support a healthy relationship with money is to make giving your top priority.

COT:
The Barkley Marathons just finished up a couple of weeks ago with no finishers. Any long distance race requires a lot of training to be able to reach the finish line. These are endurance races, not sprints. Our lives are also not a sprint. The author of Hebrews has some words in spiritual endurance.
Hebrews 12:1-3 NASB1995
[1] Therefore, since we have so great a cloud of witnesses surrounding us, let us also lay aside every encumbrance and the sin which so easily entangles us, and let us run with endurance the race that is set before us, [2] fixing our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, despising the shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. [3] For consider Him who has endured such hostility by sinners against Himself, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart.
Sin is one of those things that can slow us down and prevent us from reaching our spiritual goals. I encourage you to keep training! Build your endurance so that you may finish the race.
2 Timothy 4:7-8 NASB1995
[7] I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith; [8] in the future there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day; and not only to me, but also to all who have loved His appearing.

THE THANG:
Mosey to back of library, Biohack and Mathlete picked teams. We had 2 decks of F3 exercise cards, and a paper to track points. Team with most exercises (points) wins. There were three stages. Stage 1, 4 different places around the Project had to be visited with an excercise to be completed before returning. Stage 2, each member of the teams flips cards and does that excercise until the team flips 30 cards total. Stage 3, each member of the team continues to flip cards and go that excercise, but now adding running up stairs and the doing 2 burpees in between each one. Team Biohack did 82 different excercises and Team Mathlete did 80. To be fair, Team Mathlete had one less person.
MARY:
No time

COT:
We discussed how we continue to encourage, train up and support each other at F3. The Q today demonstrated that as we worked as individuals, but also teams. II Timothy 1:5. I have been reminded of your sincere faith, which first lived in your grandmother Lois and in your mother Eunice and I am persuaded, now lives in you also. Timothy was trained up by his family first, and the Paul. Lets us continue to train up and support our kids, family, friends, colleagues and anyone we come into contact with.

In the rain, we made our way to OHoP (Ocho’s House of Pain). It was the kind of weather that invited either winter beanies or shorts, depending on your level of crazy.

So we warmed up on the porch. During the warm ups of SSHs, Merkins, and Tempo Squats.

This was your basic 40 seconds on, 20 seconds off AMRAP.

2. Squats
3. Plank Jacks
4. Merkins
5. Mt Climbers

COT:
One big idea this morning: DON’T GIVE UP. Just don’t. In marriage, in work, in your faith, with your friends…don’t give up.
