SSH x 15, CP x 5, ISW x 10, move to the baseline for 20 Rocky Balboas on the curb, jog to other side, 15 RBs, karaoke, 10 RBs, karaoke back, 5 RBs, high knee skip back.
THA-THANG:
4 corners workout.  At each corner of the AO is an exercise in chalk.  Do 15 reps and move to the next corner.  Those exercises are: Merkins, Squats, Monkey Humpers and American Hammers.  After each full rotation, run Baby Everest and back.  Drop one rep with each Rotation until you get to one rep.

Or, until the Q gets bored [pro tip for QICs: if you are doing something monotonous for many minutes, bring music!].

Run to Cardiac after 4 rounds at the AO.  Continue reps, with one exercise at the top, bottom and each turn.  4 more rounds of the exerises.

Next, run from Cardiac to the Dragon for a modified Route 66, but with 7 stops instead of 11 (Route 28?).  Do all 4 of the exercises at each stop,  ending at the top of the Dragon after 7 stops.  So, 480 total reps done.  Good work!

MARY:
No time for Mary

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We have to convince ourselves to do Hard Things.  Our brain takes up 20-25% of the energy we use.  It is wired to save mental energy by directing our focus to existing ideas instead of exploring new ones, to move toward things that make us feel good and away from things that make us feel uncomfortable.  How do we convince ourselves to do the Hard Things?  Attitude, intentionally challenging ourselves, and find others to help and support us (like F3 brothers!).  Remember, “count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness.” James 1:2,3
