THE SCENE: Perfection including a beautiful sunrise
F3 WELCOME & DISCLAIMER
WARM-O-RAMA:
Eased Fingerfood back into it with a little reach for the sky and let it hang. Threw in some baby arm circles forward and back. Dropped for something new called countdown low plank or something like that. Held plank and then dropped to 6” low plank hold for 10 count, back up then down for 9 count, etc. Finished with some Windmills. By that time Houndog had arrived and we knew it was time to get on with it.
THAT Thang:
Mosey across HV road stopping in front of AnytimeFitness for a few side plank dips, continued our journey over to Mt Juconte. Started at bottom and gave it all she got to get to the top of the 13.3% grade. At the top found a few transported coupons and did some curls into overhead presses. On way back down did a little Route 66 with some Derkins at each tree. Finished up with 20 Heels to Heaven at the bottom.
Rinse and repeat with Squat Thrusters up top, Squats on Route 66, and Box Cutters on round 2. Round 3 was again back up…bench press / skull crusher combo, with SSH Route 66 back down and Big Boys to recover. We were having to much fun at that point that not even Erector would join for Round 4. But everyone else did as we finished back up top with coupons swings, Monkey Humpers on Route 66 and maybe some other AB work or maybe not..can’t quite remember. Headed back to the “flag” and waited at the light for everyone in HV to drive by missing out on any extra Mary
MARY:
No Time…
COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
14 HIMs…13 of who could remember their F3 name. But we were glad to have FingerFood back even if we had to help him with his name.
CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
Two biggest lies in America….the first one is by clicking this box I acknowledge that I have read and agree to the terms and conditions listed above and number two is our answer to the question “How are you?” As men especially I think it is easy to hide and avoid sharing feelings, weakness, or hurt. I am not good about it either, typically because I feel what I am going through is minuscule compared to the challenges of others. But I do also think it is good to honestly answer that question too as it allows others to be open about their feelings too, especially when you know they are in a rough season. But I specifically want to do a better job about reaching out to friends that I know are hurting. Just as we remember birthdays…we also need to remember sad days / challenging times in our friends lives and acknowledge and reach out to them to let them know it’s okay to not be fine on those days too.
Recently Facebook has reminded me about the anniversaries of loved ones lost and the continued grieving of those closest to them. I want to be a better friend and family member that I don’t rely on Facebook to remember to reach out to my friends on their sad days. Let’s remember and practice Romans 12:15 on a routine basis.
“Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.”
Romans 12:15 ESV
Prayers for DartGuns Uncle and Survivors friend who is recover from cancer treatments.
