COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Sticking your neck out for what’s right.

I used an example of my wife stepping up and taking on several people that were not doing what was right. She was willing to put her neck out there and take on a lot of work, lose relationships and even have people talk bad about her even though she did nothing wrong.

Its tough to stand up sometimes when you know if you do it could cause heartache. But, we need to stand up for what’s right and not let bad things happen as we turn the other way. I was very proud of my wife and I learned that she is not afraid to put herself on the line for what’s right.
MOLESKIN:
Great to see all the still sore GoRuckers out there loosening up those muscles. Awesome job fellas!
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
F3 olympics coming up soon

WARM-O-RAMA:
Mosey to CMU pile and while en-route do, side steps (both sides), Kerokee both sides, Crab walk (forwards and backwards), Bear crawl (forwards and backwards).

Shuttle Movin Hill Hundreds:

Each Him grabs a stack of six CMUs and carries them to the start of the hill bowl (starting marked on pavement).  Do 50 reps at the bottom of the hill at each pavement marked station, carry one cmu to the top of the hill and do another 50 reps of the same exercise.  Come down the hill to your CMU stack and move your cmu stack to the next station however you want and then start the next exercise marked on the pavement.  The exercises are:

  1. Merkins (alternate raised with cmu)
  2. Squats
  3. Thrusters
  4. Curls
  5. American Hammers
  6. Push Press
  7. Rows

All exercises are with the cmu

MARY:
Ran out of time for Mary, so used up the time trying to finish.  At the Curl station, due to time we dropped the reps down to 25 (top and bottom).  Then At the American Hammer station we dropped it to 10. Then for Push Press’s and Rows we dropped it to 5, and were still over time.   For next time suggest only have 2 CMU’s per person and only do 25 reps for a total of 50 per shuttle station.

COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
10 PAX this morning, including FNG Unibrau (Nick Robinson)
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
1 Timothy 2:1-4:
First of all, then, I urge that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgivings be made for all people, for kings and all who are in high positions, that we may lead a peaceful and quiet life, godly and dignified in every way. This is good, and it is pleasing in the sight of God our Savior

Looking around at what is going on with our leaders today, there’s not much you can describe as dignified in any way. However, no matter which side of the current issues you come down on, one thing we all have in common is that we’re called to pray for those who are in high positions. Notice, even thanksgivings is in that list of what we’re supposed to make for all people. Remember that God’s ultimately in charge, and He’s the one we’re responsible to.
MOLESKIN:
The grass this morning had a pleasant herby, minty sort of smell. Very refreshing when you’re nose-deep doing hand-release Merkins…
