WARMUP: Q shows up late

THE THANG: Ruck to neighborhood behind Marco’s

MARY: Clayton Loop

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT: We discussed a quote from Jon Tyson that he said to his son. “I’m not trying to help you be a good man, I’m trying to help you be good at being a man.”

We listed characteristics that men have and discussed what a man is. There is all kinds of talk of this in the world and on the internet right now. My challenge is to seek being as Spellcheck said, a Godly man first. Seek direction and insight in God’s word first.

Who is good? What is good? What is a man? The world and its wisdom is complicated but yet easy. Following Jesus is simple, but a lot of times hard.

WARMUP:
Drank some coffee

THE THANG:
Spur…
When choosing leaders, experience matters
The best players do not always make the best coaches
The virtuous leader encourages other men to lead early and often

Always second guess your first response.

Most often our second response should be an apology.

Don’t teach how to be a “good man”.
Teach being good at being a man.

MARY:
More coffee added to my abdomen

Reflection on quote from William Blake
“We become what we behold.”

And we … beholding … are being transformed

And we all, with unveiled face, beholding the glory of the Lord, are being transformed into the same image from one degree of glory to another. For this comes from the Lord who is the Spirit.
2 CORINTHIANS 3:18

Hill Huntin

AO: thequacken
Q: Frizzles
PAX: Mountain Ice, DoorKicker (Jud), Backflow, Recoil (Blake Conley), Chinstrap, Natty, Frizzles, Spellcheck, Ricochet
FNGs: None
COUNT: 9
WARMUP: YHC was feeling a little tight this morning so we stretched the legs for a minute or two.

Mountain Ice distributed some reflectors after a near miss with a car last week. DoorKicker (Jud) demonstrated proper usage by strapping them around his calves.

THE THANG:

Ruck through Mountain City.

Distance: 2.35miles (Ricochet went a little further with some laps across the parking lot during Coffeeteria).

Elevation: My watch says 462 feet. So it was a successful hill hunt.

Dogs in that one yard: At least 5

COT: Be intentional with your relationships. Lead well and know where you’re going.
