We took a little longer and knocked out 4 miles. Toretto, decided to forgo the ruck and ran for 2 straight hours and running 12 miles while we rucked.

It’s the busy season, keep your eye on what’s important and don’t be distracted by the noise. Family, wife, work whatever you deem important, don’t let the noise and less important things distract you from the important things.

COT:
Even since before arriving in the NFL, Deion Sanders had a swagger and arrogance about himself, something that continues to show up in sports headlines today. As a coach he gets more criticism for his comments, but as you look past the flash you see that the comments and actions are calculated and methodical. It’s his confidence coming through and speaking his future into existence.
I find myself desiring that level of confidence too. At a sales conference he said this (paraphrasing) ‘no one saw my biggest plays, because they happened at practice. There were no cameras when I made my biggest plays. I practice like I played, so when I played it was practice.’
Ephesians 6:10 reads “Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power” before detailing the armor of God. This is our practice and our confidence. That we trust in, lean on, and follow the guidance of the Lord in all times. We do it during good times and the blessings, so that when we hit trials and struggles we have practiced and are prepared to trust in his mighty power. That is our confidence in Him.
Through all of the braggadocios comments Deion has also been quoted saying this: “I don’t care what they say about me when I’m through with sports. I don’t want to be known as anything else in life but a great father.”
