MOLESKIN:
I believe in the doctrine of election because I am quite certain that if God had not chosen me, I should never have chosen him and I am sure he chose me before I was born or else, he never would have chosen me afterwards: and he must have elected me for some reason unknown to me, for I never could find any reason in myself why he should have looked upon me with special love. Charles Spurgeon

The “Grand” 3rd Leg of Ole Smokey

THE SCENE: 44 degrees, with no rain in the forecast, so the moisture that was present must have been 100% humidity.
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:

Mosey to Award Winning Way AKA Ole Smokey’s 3rd Leg.  There were no participation trophies given on Award Winning Way this AM.
THA-THANG:

Perform these exercises at the bottom of the hill with the ruck
10 American Hammers
10 Curls
10 Tri Ext
10 Over Head Presses
10 BBS
Run to the first break in the median, perform 5 burpees, then continue to run to the top of the hill, then 5 more as you run back down the hill.
Perform these exercises at the top of the hill with the ruck
10 Squats
10 Lunges (each leg)
10 Calf Raises
10 Monkey Humpers
10 Merkins
Repeat the 3rd leg 10 times

The goal was 10 times.  Several of us made it 6 times, which would be 660 reps each.  My GPS had me at 2.87 total miles which is less than I wanted.  My plan was high heart rate work.  Often in rucking, my heart rate is lower than running or the regular boot camp.  I wanted us to use the hill and subsequent exercises to keep our heart rate high to improve our endurance and ability to sprint or climb hills under weight.  After the 6th repeat, we dropped the exercises and repeated the hill 3 more times for a total of 9 hill repeats.  We made our way back to the AO to meet up with the Boot Camp.
MARY:
We joined Pool Boy for a couple of Merkins before he called time.

Transition to Lake: Indian Race Run

The indian race run is like the indian run but with two races added. The last person in line sprints up to front and back to back and keeps going around back up to the front. So each person does two loops around the train. When that sprinter gets to the back the first time, the next person in line races him back up to the top. Upon reaching the beginning the first person stops and the second person begins his loop to the back where the next last person will race him up to the top. (Repeat).

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
you may not always understand someones path, and seeking out to understand their path may not work.  But know that the lord put you in that individuals path for a reason.  you are given a choice just as everyone else is.  What will you do with your choice.

 

I call to mind the merciful story of God’s love that we heard today in a spiritual retreat for the clergy.   the Priest speaker said that God knows the struggle of those who are addicted.   He knows that their efforts are flawed and weak.   God also knows that with-in the fog of confusion, there is a soul crying to God for his help.  Like the good thief on the cross, you son will have the chance to hear the words, “Today, you will be with me in paradise.”

-Fr. Val Bartek
