Stronger – Higher – Faster – Together

Steve Prefontaine was an Olympic runner from Oregon in the 70s and also the namesake of my dog.

He was a flat out runner that didn’t buy into strategy, or %, he was a flat out runner.

My fav quote from Pre, that I couldn’t remember is, “To give anything less than your best, is to sacrifice the gift”.

Hit me in the car.

Hope all of you men work to get Stronger – Higher – Faster – Together.

Good to be back

FNGs: None
COUNT: 9
WARMUP: one squat

THE THANG:

Four different stations after you partner up.
First patient one partner does an exercise while the other partner runs to the next station and runs back and switches with the other partner.
Do this three times and then go to the second station and run from the second station to the third station and so on and so forth

This is a classic ribbed workout, not much needs to be said. Except for the fact that because I did not have any instructions, it was like a bunch of wild horses, figuring out what to do and people were running around like chickens with their heads cut off.

MARY: stretching with ribbed

ANNOUNCEMENTS: don’t @channel the channel

Triple Q Fail, triple confessions:

1) I would like to say I was following in the footsteps of my predecessor Crawdad (Robbi Dickens) and I took the week to meditate on last week’s Q before posting the backblast. But the truth is I went home after the workout and immediately started working on the yard, which I do not care about. Spent all day on it and was too tired to post this.

2) I like to get a little chatter going when I’m Qing, you know? But we went up everest and were generally on the move so much that I was out of breath and couldn’t say a whole lot. And we didn’t even get to the Jack Webb I had planned 🙁

3) I forgot our FNG’s name. Little Roll? Double Wide his potential brother in law will have to remember if/when Jason Sutton comes back.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Proton! Great October surprise

COT: High Heels (Henry Ritchie) requested prayer for his write-in campaign to become Weasel Shaker

Message
This is a quote from the theologian, Rebecca Manley Pippert, about Jesus Christ:

“What do you do with a man who is supposed to be the holiest man who has ever lived and yet goes around talking with prostitutes and hugging lepers? What do you do with a man who not only mingles with the most unsavory people but actually seems to enjoy them? The religious accused him of being a drunkard, a glutton and having tacky taste in friends. It is a profound irony that the Son of God visited this planet and one of the chief complaints against him was that he was not religious enough.”

Gents, think about that the next time you judge someone else. Also, think about that the next time you feel like you are not good enough for God. God is here for us, even in the Fake Gloom, even through our mumble chatter, even at our Board Meetings. And you know what? He probably enjoys us. This holiest of holies is on our side. So, let’s feel good about that and let it give us the energy to go about our days working to be true HIMs.
