CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
I have been treating some of my daily life like an assembly line.  There are large task that I need and want to finish and by setting aside a little time every day, I have started to complete some of these things.  Nothing is too large to accomplish or overcome.  Sometimes it takes a whole assembly line of support, or you learn how to do the next part of the assembly line and you keep moving.  Eventually you get a finished product.

THA-THANG:
Four cones were set up in a rectangle across the grinder. Each person started at a different cone and did the first exercise there. Then they moved clockwise to the next cone by either bear crawling (shorter side of the rectangle) or doing a defensive slide (longer side of the rectangle). They then did the first exercise at the next cone and so on until they finished the first exercise at all four cones. Each time we completed four exercises, we ran up the troll bridge and did 10 bodybuilders before going back and moving on to the next set of exercises.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Matthew 7:13-14 says “Enter by the narrow gate, since the road that leads to destruction is wide and spacious, and many take it, but it is a narrow gate and a hard road that leads to life, and only a few find it.”

I feel like this verse is applicable to anything we do in life. As F3 men, we walk a narrow road each day when we decide to wake up early and workout. We have to strive to take the narrow path in each and everything we do. Comfort and ease are the barriers to happiness and success.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Let the men know I RSVPed to GoRuck that I would not be attending Selection. Biggest reason to me was I had no WHY. I have struggled since I signed up to find my WHY and after the reality show joke that was Team Assessment I have basically decided I’m done with GoRuck challenge type events. Star Course is another story 🙂
MOLESKIN:
So this was worse than I remember it being when Moses and I did it last year. Turns out I added in too many Broad Jumps. My B.
