Mosey to the start of Shamrock Row and lunged until it was time to do a burpee, then we lunged again and did another burpee, then we bear crawled and did a burpee, then we crab-walked and did a burpee…..PAX was trying to figure out the pattern with no luck. 

We recovered from that when we got to the Merkin Mile and then got into the meat of the workout. We partnered up and proceeded with the following: 

Hub and Spoke Workout

WARM-O-RAMA:
Even though Pool Boy was in attendance, we did zero Side Straddle Hops
Tempo Merkins

15 Squats
resume merkins and repeat until you hit 200 merkins.

Once over half of the group reached 200, time was called and we ran to the CMU’s.

25 Curls
10 Tri ext (after 200 merkins)
25 Bench Press

Mosey back to the AO for the Mary

MARY:
The first exercise called was LBC’s and someone said take us to 100, so we did 50 LBC’s in cadence equaling 100.  Be careful what you ask for.  Then we did 36 flutter kicks only because I failed to stop at 35, finally we all did 10 big boys on our own, and for the last few seconds dumpster dive had us do jumping beans.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
We did have one FNG, named Carter.  We named him Flintstone because he was wearing minimalist running sandals, and was practically barefoot!
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I talked about my struggle to pray when times are good, and my desire to pray when times are tough.  I recently dropped my daughter off at a camp in Palo Alto CA.  She is 15, and we were both struggling at the prospect of her being on her own.  I finally left her, and I was a wreck emotionally.  I took a long walk around the Stanford Campus to clear my head and spent a lot of time in prayer.

My daughter met some people and did great, and I hailed an UBER back to San Francisco.  I encountered the best driver I have ever had.  He had over 28,000 trips and maintained a 4.99 star rating out of 5.  Nasim was a Jordanian immigrant.  He retired from the grocery business, and drives UBER for fun.  He loves people, and was raised as a Christian in Jordan, before immigrating to the US.  We had a delightful conversation, and he was an answer to prayers, and maybe even an angel.  Nasim and I swapped numbers and he texted me the next day (Father’s Day) to see how I was doing.

We need God all of the time, not just when things are rough, the challenge this week is to remember that and spend some time in prayer.  God is real, He is there just waiting for you to have a relationship with Him.

De Oppresso Liber

  • Latin for “to free the oppressed”

There are some things in my life that feel pretty oppressive.

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the cosmic powers over this present darkness, against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly places.”

‭‭Ephesians‬ ‭6:12‬ ‭ESV‬‬

There’s only one person who can truly free the oppressed and his name is Jesus.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Matthew 6:19-21 – What do you treasure? 

From the devotions of Thomas à Kempis in “The Imitation of Christ” 

This is the greatest wisdom – to seek the kingdom of heaven through contempt of the world. It is vanity, therefore, to seek and trust in riches that perish. It is vanity also to court honor and to be puffed up with pride…It is vanity to wish for long life and to care little about a well-spent life. … It is vanity to love what passes quickly and not to look ahead where eternal joy abides. 

MOLESKIN:
Prayer for the 14 yr old kid Silas who is in the hospital with a severe head injury.
