COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Ask everyone to forgive me for wasting their time.

Page 70 of Freed to lead reminded me that “There is no stretching in an F3 Workout….when the clock strikes go, the Q moves out, even if there are still cars coming into the lot….We do this (start on time) because we are men and leaders, and, for us, time is important.”

Let’s not waist time.

“So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God. Do not cause anyone to stumble, whether Jews, Greeks or the church of God– even as I try to please everyone in every way. For I am not seeking my own good but the good of many, so that they may be saved.” 1st Corinthians 10:31

Circuit 1

  • VUps
  • Flutter Kicks
  • Dolly
  • Imperial Walkers to wait for Six

Circuit 2

  • GA Cheerleader
  • Lunge
  • Squat
  • SSH 

Circuit 3

  • Merks
  • Dry Docks
  • Dips
  • Shoulder Taps

And we finished with a Fellowship Mosey (TM) by the playground to see what our overnight guest could possibly be looking for with a flashlight in the wee hours… It’s always a special treat when you meet your buddies in a dark park—in what most people consider the middle of the night—wearing sleeveless tees, mechanic’s gloves, & compression socks and somehow still aren’t the weirdest people there.

STRETCHES:

  • Bend down & grab toes

THA-THANG:

Mosey to the Caribbean.  We will run on a candy cane route, stopping at every other island to do the following exercises.  The end of the candy cane will be the island in the middle of the north side of the Caribbean.

  • 10 Merkins
  • 10 Star Jumps
  • 10 Big Boys
  • 10 Plank Jacks

Mosey to the Lily Pad.  We will do suicides running to each of five cones and back to curb.  At curb we will do 20 Baby Crunches each time we come back.  Next, we all run back the last cone. We will sprint back.  The man in the lead picks up cone that is one his way back to the curb.

Mosey past the Pavilion by the Lily Pad to the perimeter trail.  We will run east then south on the perimeter trail to the Serpentine Sidewalk and then head on the Serpentine Sidewalk toward the Caribbean Parking Lot.  Men will run for ten light posts.  Those getting to the tenth light post first circle back to the six.  We will then walk for two light posts as a group.  We will repeat this process all the way to the Caribbean.   At the Caribbean we will slow mosey back to the AO.

At the AO parking lot we will partner up in teams of two.  Each team will see how far one can throw a frisbee while the other partner runs forward to catch the frisbee.  Whichever team gets the farthest is the winner.

Rivers Don’t Drink Their Own Water

I found this message from Pope Francis and I thought I would pass it along to you:

“Rivers do not drink their own water; trees do not eat their own fruit; the sun does not shine on itself and flowers do not spread their fragrance for themselves.

Living for others is a rule of nature. We are all born to help each other.

No matter how difficult it is…Life is good when you are happy; but much better when others are happy because of you.”

To me, that is a beautiful message.  I don’t even need to expand on it.  I love it as it is.

MOLESKIN:
Prayers for those coping with drug abuse or living out on the streets.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Service opportunity at the Cerebral Palsy Foundation this Saturday.
