“If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.”   Millions of people around the country are in the first week of their “get healthier” new year resolution…most of them will fizzle out over the next two weeks largely because they try to do it alone.  I am thankful for the brotherhood and accountability of F3 and it’s ability to keep me from being a flash in the pan when it comes to fitness.

MOLESKIN:
Kind of an impromptu Q because of the rain.  Thanks to the good folks at 2 Rivers Church for letting us use their covered areas so we could stay dry.

“We can rejoice, too, when we run into problems and trials, for we know that they help us develop endurance. And endurance develops strength of character, and character strengthens our confident hope of salvation.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭5:3-4‬ ‭

MOLESKIN:
The Q has had a good run without an injury but alas, all good things must come to an end. This Q is writing this backblast with 600mg of ibuprofen and a muscle relaxer in him. I figured out that I would rather do 100 burpees with the pax than watch them work hard sidelined with a back injury. Coffeteria was great with everyone attending. ANNOUNCEMENTS:
New Years Party this Friday.

You’re on Q, oh and it’s your VQ

Since no one was signed up to Q and Training Wheels said he would take the first “ten” minutes, we moseyed over to the big flag. Since Training Wheels has never done a Seabiscuit before, we will call this a Training Biscuit. It is: Run one lap (1/4mile) then do 25 of each exercise below. Do two laps then exercises……three laps-exercises , then back to two-exercises. We all finished together with a mosey back to the AO. The exercises were 25 of each:

  • Merkins
  • Squats
  • Dips
  • Big boys/LBCs

MARY:
Bartman and Snitch led us in Box cutters, side crunches and flutters

Training wheels talked about seeing the movie about Mr. Rogers with his wife last night. He shared with us about how Fred Rogers goal was to make every child feel special. TW was really looking for a group of men to be Christian leaders in Knoxville. He was very thankful for finding F3 and really wants to motivate us to become spiritual leaders.
MOLESKIN:
Not a lot of mumble chatter as there was a lot of running today. It’s hard to breathe and talk.
