COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Sacrifice is key in leadership. The best leaders have always been servant leaders. A great leader will put others in front of himself to lift those up around him, they do not need the glory. In my professional life i have see both kinds of leaders and the leaders that have put themselves first failed. The only way a team can over come challenges is with strong leadership. DORA’s are a great example of sacrifice in leadership. Your brother is reliant on you to not stop moving even when you’re tired. We have to sacrifice ourselves for the pax and our brothers.
MOLESKIN:
Keep Drifter in your thoughts as he goes through the moving process.

The Q was late today, because i allowed the fartsack to trick me into thinking i had 5 more min. Because of that i was rushing and left my phone at home. Impossible to run a musical DORA without music so Q had to drive back home to find his phone. I appreciate Drifter picking up for the Q’s slacking and took the pax through the warm up.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Love my time here in Alcoa F3.  It has been over 3 years of hot, snowy, frigid, downpours and few perfect temp days of hard workouts but I loved every minute of it.  Going to miss the amazing history lessons from Hammy, trying to keep up with Snorkel, Veep’s odd funnel stories, beer rucks, heart felt messages from Drifter, carrying bowling balls, turkeys, and swords around like it’s normal, dressing up as Mario with Snorkel as Luigi, Waxjob Hill, The Educator, Mt. Crumpet, Hellbender Bend,  and I am going to miss all the encouraging words by each and every member that passed my way.  See you all in the gloom some day soon.
