Never Going to Take my Fire

Everyday enemy tried to get the best of me

The enemy under my skin

Everyday enemy, my fatal flaw anatomy

Feelin’ like I just can’t win

Sometimes I wish I didn’t feel that much

Sometimes I wish I didn’t need that touch

But everyday my enemy pretend to be a friend to me

No matter what state I’m in

But you’re never gonna take my fire

I cannot not be tamed

No, you’re never gonna take my fire

It’s burning in my veins

You say the world is changing

But I still burn the same

No, you’re never gonna take my fire

The ancient flame lit the spark back before I was young

When I’m speaking with the fire, it’s my native tongue

No, you’re never gonna take my fire

Thief in the night

THE SCENE: Pleasant

5 minutes worth of an work. Little did we know trouble was lurking around the corner. Literally. Drifter noticed the dude sleeping around the corner prior to the beat down.
THA Thang

Ran to ButterBilly hill where we did 7’s with burpees at the bottom and burpees at the top. Had we done 11s, nobody’s keys would have been there when we got back.

Mary involved a slow walk after dude who grabbed Yosemite’s key. Heart rates were elevated but nobody really moved anywhere quickly. Except Avocado, he ran once dude got loud.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
The growth mindset is based on the belief that your basic qualities are things you can cultivate through your efforts. Everyone can change and grow through application and experience.
If you are honest with yourself, there is a gap between where you are and where you want to be. Will you embrace the GAP? Will you have the courage to seek the GAP? Will you aggressively live in the GAP?

Fireworks in Springbrook

THE SCENE: It was fine. Not too terribly hot, but still thick enough air to get the sweat flowing pretty steady.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER

Motivators from 8, 20 Merkins, 8 Cherry Pickers, 8 Piano Keys, 20 Squats

THA-THANG:
In true Alcoa style, we ripped off Maryville’s fireworks. This time it was more metaphorical.

Starting at the pavilion, do these three exercise with 11 reps:

  • Bench Walks
  • Derkins
  • Box Jumps

Then head out to a station, do the work there, and return to repeat the first three exercises before going to the next station. The stations are:

  • Jog to troll bridge and sprint back
  • Jog to bottom of the path hill and lunge back up to the blue library box at the fork in the trail
  • Bear Crawl to the pull-up bars, 11 pull-ups, jog back
  • Jog to Waxjob hill and Bernie it 11 times (this sucked by the way)

MARY:
Some heals to heaven, body builders, crunches, leg touches, flutter kicks

7 PAX and a Webelo sighting

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
It took me a bit of rambling to get there, but the main point came out pretty good at the end and it was this:

Other people worked hard and sacrificed to earn your freedom. It’s not a guarantee, so we need to find ways to invest time in earning that freedom for those who come after us. Freedom is to be enjoyed, but like all good things, it has to be stewarded and maintained.
