COT:
Psalm 118: 22-24
22 The stone the builders rejected
has become the cornerstone;
23 the Lord has done this,
and it is marvelous in our eyes.
24 The Lord has done it this very day;
let us rejoice today and be glad.

– As another year passes for this birthday boy, becomes paramount to remember the Lord rejoices in what He has done, so we ought to do the same — God is good in providing all we need (most importantly His Son who became the cornerstone), let us rejoice each day we have to bless His Name.

THE SCENE: Clear morning. Temperature ~68F
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

  • 12 Projectivators,
  • 5 Cherry Pickers
  • 15 Moroccan Night Clubs
  • 10 Tempo Squats
  • 10 Temp Merkins

THA-THANG:
Moseyed to blocks.

  • Clean and Press Block – 20, Boxcutter – 200

MARY:
Time for a little Mary at the End.  Participants called out who would give the next exercise.  Did Box cutters, LBCs, and Basilisks

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
Boxcutter also attended but doesn’t have tag yet
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
“My actions are my only true belonging.  I cannot escape the consequences of my actions.  My actions are the ground on which I stand.”  Ran across this quote.  Word addressed evaluating not what you feel you have done, but to look at what actions you have taken.  Thinking about something can often feel as real as taking the action itself.  So look back on what actions you have taken, not how much you feel you have done based on what you have been thinking about.  Ocho made the point that from this perspective, prayer is an action.
MOLESKIN:
If a similar workout is redone, recommend reducing the numbers of Clean and Press to 10, Squat jumps to 15, and all 200’s to 100 or 150.  Two reasons.  First, the clean and press and squat jump winded people very fast and often they seemed to make this modification on their own.  Second, the workout was running long so had to have folks move through early.  Reduced counts would have it run closer to the expected time.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Q101 this weekend 8/19. Hosted at The Project but open to all F3 Knoxville

A retreat is coming up this fall at Doe River Gorge.  Spots are open.  Cost is $110.

Ultimate Frisbee OTB on Wednesday (8/16) went well.  Plan is to shift it to Saturdays, but since Q101 is next week, it will be on Wednesday again.

COT:
Why does F3 love the color Black? because black is the color of discipline. Why? Because discipline takes place primarily in secret, invisible to all others. For example, the discipline to post is founded on a thousand small decisions made during the hours leading up to it, from your dinner, to your drinking, to your sleep, to your alarm clock. By the time you make it to the parking lot, 80% of the work is already done.
