Sprint the straight sections and then mosey in between the stations in the corners. Rep counts where 20 first lap, 15 second lap, and 10 for every other lap. Most of the PAX completed four laps. Some more. Some fewer.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

F3 is open to all men. I believe we, as individuals, should be too. Work to embrace the positive traits of all. Especially, those who don’t check all the same boxes as you do.

MOLESKIN:
For Baby Boomer and all those traveling this week.  And for all the sick and suffering.  For the unsaid prayers in our hearts.

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.

Do the hard thing 

We often know exactly where to hide to not get called out in life DONT. 

Do the hard thing now so you are ready later. 

Be an asset

You don’t have to be the most talented, biggest fastest or strongest to become an asset  

MOLESKIN:

Mumble chatter was on point today. No one seemed to be a fan of the Illuminati raises but that was to be expected. BYOCMU went perfectly we had just enough.

F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
10 – 4 ct SSH, 10 Merkins, 10 Tie Fighters, 15-4 count flutter kicks.

THA-THANG:

To celebrate our 2 year anniversary we did Jumping Spiders at every shamrock on the road. This was a terrible idea, but according to the internet Plymetric pushups are really good for burning goo and building muscle. I think we had 34 shamrock stops, so 68 of these.

After recovering with a short walk the crew did not kill me, so we moved on to get a tour of the ring of fire roller coaster.

#1 pick your poison and make you way around the round brick enclosure with dips, incline merkins, decline wall crawl or box jumps.

Bunny Hop to #2

#2 Basketball Merkins – 10 alternating, roll ball to opposite hand and do an offset merkin, then roll it back.

Bear crawl to #3 “What’s up Doc” (TM by Baby Boomer)

#3 Grab a CMU, toss it up to the landing, hoist your sack of meat up, grab the CMU, run down the steps, and repeat for 3 times total.

Run to the covered walkway.

#4 Grab a CMU – 25 curls + 25

Run to #5

#5 Small weights / rocks (pink weights for Jenner) – 50 behind the back tricep flutters

Run to #6

#6 CMU drag from curb to curb, then back to curb.

Start over at the ring of fire.

11 men somehow managed to wrangle up all 18 CMUs to return to the pile.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
2 years at Shamrock has been a huge blessing to me. I look forward to showing up in the gloom everyday. We have a strong band of brothers and I hope we continue to reach out to friends, family and strangers to invite them in to this group.

Psalms 133:1 Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brethren to dwell together in unity!
