Content – In a state of peaceful happiness

I’m typically not very flexible. I’m a planner and like to be organized. This pandemic has been terrible but a blessing.

Obviously, 70,000 people in the United States have died from the Coronavirus and the numbers will continue to grow.

I can’t travel for work, I’m now a home school teacher so I have learned to be more flexible and patience.

Last night, we tried to order Mexican food for Cinco de Mayo and couldn’t get through to anywhere so we decided to go to Taco Bell. All Taco Bell’s were packed!  We ended up getting our daughter Chick Fil A & my wife and I ordered wings from Wild Wing Café. We rode around listening to music and realized it was the first time the three of us had been in the car together for more than a month!  It was a great night.  We had fun and I felt blessed that we had food on the table.

Our youngest daughter, Alex, was going to Illinois for a week but my wife’s cousin, Mary, called last night that she and one of her sons have the Coronavirus. They’re sick but not feeling too bad. So, Alex isn’t going to Illinois next weekend but we’re hoping sometime in the next couple of months to see her cousins. I was honesly looking forward to a week without homeschooling so I could work a bit. However, that’s not in the cards so I’ll suck it up and just appreciate that I have a healthy daughter and enjoy the time I have with her and pray she will enjoy our time together and eventually get to visit her cousins in Illinois later this year.

Phillippians 4:11-13 Not that I am speaking of being in need, for I have learned in whatever situation I am to be content. I know how to be brought low, and I know how to abound. In any and every circumstance, I have learned the secret of facing plenty and hunger, abundance and need. I can do all things through him who strengthens me.

Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”

MOLESKIN: 

It was good to be on Q but no F3 for a couple of months & me travelling so much over the last 6 months definitely made me a little rusty on leading the Warm-O-Rama & BOM.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
MOTHER’S DAY IS THIS SUNDAY – TAKE CARE OF THE MOTHER’S IN YOUR LIVES

JUCO RECON MISSION

THE SCENE: 60’s
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER:  Full F3 Disclaimer given along with COVID19 restrictions
WARM-O-RAMA:  Merkins(IC), Squats(IC), Plank Jacks(IC), Cherry Pickers(IC)
THA-THANG:
JUCO RECON:  Divide up into three teams of 5.  Each team will attempt to complete all three Missions (one at a time) located at three different areas on campus, rotating counterclockwise to the next mission after completion of the previous one. Teams will separately run to each, staying on pavement at all times (grass medians are lava).  Why? Because each time the team makes a turn and changes direction (even the slighter ones), the team does 15 Merkins, 15 Squats, 15 Plank Jacks. If any team member inadvertently tries to cross a median to avoid a turn, it’s 10 Burpees for the team and back to the pavement.

  • Mission 1: Large East Parking Lot by Duck Pond- Bernie all the way across and all the way back
  • Mission 2: Coupon Pile at Loading Dock – 100 Curls, 100 Tri Extensions
  • Mission 3: Sophomore Hill – Bear Crawl all the way up hill, Crawl Bear all the way down opposite side (this was awful)

MARY:
Flutter Kicks (IC)(x25), LBCs (IC)(x25).

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Scripture states that God is Love.  Scripture states Love embraces Patience, Kindness, Truth, Resilience, Faith, Hope, Endurance, and Perseverance. On the other hand, Scripture states Love resists, stands against, and is opposed to Envy, Boasting, Arrogance, Rudeness, Selfishness, Anger, Resentment, and Wrongdoing.  Do you practice the above attributes that are embraced by Love?  Over the past few months, we have all had extra time perhaps to meditate on what really matters in life, what we place our trust and hope in.  For me, all of my hope – the only true hope I believe we have in this world – is Jesus.  It is all about Him for me.  He means more than family, more than my personal health and fitness.  Just Him, Jesus.
MOLESKIN:
It was great to be back out at JUCO with these men.  Snaggletooth wanted me to name the workout, “THAT SUCKED.”  I felt the above title was more appropriate.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:

THE SCENE:

Virtual Q –

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER

Off the books. 100% voluntary. 100% free. Definately not a professional.

WARM-O-RAMA:

  • SSH
  • Mosey to quarter mile track
  • Cherry Pickers
  • Wind Mills
  • Twisting Pickers – Kind of a combination of a windmill and a cherry picker. Done to the 8 count. Starting position is just like cherry picker – legs spread – torso up. Extend the arms straight up. 1. Turn torso left. 2. Turn torso right. 3. Arms lowered to shoulder height – turn torso left. 4. Turn torso right. 5. Drop arms down to toe level – touch left toe. 6. Touch right toe. 7. Touch ground directly underneath you (like cherry picker) 8. Touch ground behind you.
  • Clap Jacks – just for good measure to get heart rate up – Its a combo of a clapping merkin and star jack. It’s pretty evil and starts to hurt after about the third or fourth one.

The Thang: The F3 220 Mile.

Basically a mile broken up into 8 even 220 yard segments. It is preferable to do this around a track because of all the crawling.

  1. 220 yards of backwards lunge
  2. 220 yards of forwards lunge
  3. 220 yards of forwards crab walk
  4. 220 yards of backwards crab walk
  5. 220 yards of backwards bear crawl

  7. 220 yards of bernie
  8. 220 yards of sprint (ha if you can)

MARY:

We’ll see if we have time.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Stay safe out there! This would be on my list of F3 Knoxville challenges if we were to create a challenge series for the F3 Nation like Greenwood does. The other one I’d suggest is the 100 Burpee Pullup + 100 CMU Thrusters for time one..
