Truckin to the Pound Round 2

Men of Knoxville, August 25, 2018 you are invited to attend a Completely Stupid and Utterly Pointless (CSAUP) event.  Truckin To The Pound Round 2,  #TruckinToThePound #TTTP2

This event was created by the TruckStop/DogPound crews as a way to have a longer event such as a Ragnar Relay, Spartan, Tough Mudder, etc. without the added expenses of entry fees, travel expenses, and most importantly the time away from family and friends.

As busy men, just like you we wanted to do something bigger but not have the logistics of travelling to another city/state/province to complete the event.

So August 25, 2018, instead of wishing you could get out there and do a crazy event come do one with us!  At 0600 we will gather at the TruckStop aka Bob Leonard Park and we will mosey to the DogPound located at Concord Park.  The course is 9-ish miles, with 4 stops for mini-Qs or workouts along the way.  Consider the Qs added bonus features, if you wish to think of them that way.

 

This event is free!

 

This event is for the High Impact Men (HIM)s of Knoxville to challenge themselves and each other, and help one another get better.

It is a CSAUP event, there are no trophies, medals, prizes or awards. We are all going to go out and get better together. #IronSharpensIron  Start together finish together.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
We don’t always have time for a sharing but today we did.  What I found interesting is today when we ran up the biggest hill, or when the street lights were out and we could barely see, or when we ran back up the grinder, those were the times when the most jokes and comraderie happened.  It strikes me every time that when the going gets rough, and the struggles are real, that going through things in the gloom with brothers beside you makes it easier.  It doesn’t make the challenge any less, but it sure makes finishing easier.

WARM-O-RAMA:
Each PAX selected their favorite warm-o-rama exercise and led us through it.

THA-THANG:
We moseyed to the top soccer field where each PAX led their favorite field/movement exercise.  The PAX soon learned that paying attention to what the man before you called was of significant value

We moseyed to the playground and soccer field where we repeated the same process.

We moseyed back to the AO.

MARY:
A couple of PAX led us through their favorite ab-o-rama exercise.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
F3 challenges us to be leaders in our communities, homes, jobs, etc.  But how can we be leaders if we aren’t comfortable calling out stupid exercises with our friends in the dark?  How can we be leaders if we don’t listen and know what has happened in the community, home, job?  We can’t.  We are called to lead and we are called to know what is going around us.  Reaching out of our comfort zone to help others is what we should be doing.
