This was a simple workout in design, difficult in practice.

We warmed up and did S L O W (the correct way) cherry pickers, and a few other things before grabbing our bags, and additional sandbags and kettle bells and went to MOTO hill. At the top of the hill, we set the heavy things down and did a set of 20 Monkey Humpers in Cadence at the entrance to the West Side Y. We picked up our heavy things, and went back down the hill.

I explained the Ruck Tabata, which was 6 stations, for 1 minute each, 15 seconds in between stations for a total of 6 times. We were encouraged to wear a vest or ruck at 20-30lbs, then we had weight options at each station if you wanted to dial up the workout. The statins were as follows:
Sandbag Thrusters
Merkins
Sissy Squats
Curls
Good Mornings
Rest

The total elasped time of the above was about 45 minutes, so another trip up Moto hill was in order, to revisit Monkey Humpers and the entrance where we bumped into Swimmies.

We then had a COT talking about the amazing COT that Commission shared on Friday focused on 1 Kings 19:19-21.

Where in your life do you need to be as committed as Elisha?

ANNOUNCEMENTS:forgot those

COT: “Never pay back evil with more evil. Do things in such a way that everyone can see you are honorable. Do all that you can to live in peace with everyone. Dear friends, never take revenge. Leave that to the righteous anger of God. For the Scriptures say, “I will take revenge; I will pay them back,” says the Lord. Instead, “If your enemies are hungry, feed them. If they are thirsty, give them something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals of shame on their heads.” Don’t let evil conquer you, but conquer evil by doing good.”
‭‭Romans‬ ‭12‬:‭17‬-‭21‬ ‭NLT‬‬

COT
“I wish the ring had never come to me,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.

– Time is the only non-renewable resource — invest it well
– The investment of time we make in F3 furthers the mission, and we see the ripple effects in and outside of F3
– F3 has been a part of my life for close to a decade – and has changed, shaped, and molded me drastically. It’s a gift and privilege to be out here with you men.
