We gathered bright an early at the Quagmire on this Monday morning ready to put in some work. By 5:15am we had 10 PAX ready to role with YHC and 5 ruckers taking off with Trucker. Disclaimer and a quick piece on humility, pride and ego…and we were off!

Mosey to the parking lot by the main fountain.

Circle up for COP
25 SSHs, 20 Imperial Walkers, 10 Merkins, 20 Plank Jacks, 20 Mountain Climbers, 25 MNCs…and a little yoga

Mosey to my favorite part of the AO, the Big Red Balls by Target.

10x Ranger Merkins then Lt Dan’s between the balls next 10x Crucible Merkins. R & R until the final red ball.

Finished and gathered the PAX, my 10 count was around a bible verse I found at church Sunday.

Proverbs 11:2 – “When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.”

Mosey over to Gander Mountain for the real work!

Four Corners marked with a cone: I broke group into 3 teams.

1st corner 100 LBCs

2nd corner 50 Paver Curls

3rd corner 100 Freddy Mercury’s

4th corner 50 Raised Curb Merkins

We all met back at 1st corner and finished LBCs until the final group arrived.

Mosey back towards COT…like a mile away!

Stopped short and completed a little ab work
20 Hello Dolly’s
20 American Hammers

Back to COT

Quick Moleskin:
This month’s theme is humility. I shared in my opening that the opposite of humility is pride…but what is pride? We say we take pride in our work, in our children’s accomplishments, etc. Pride itself doesn’t seem so bad, but break down the darker side of pride…that’s ego. Ego is what gets you in trouble. Ego is the “I’m better than everyone else at (X)”. That is the opposite of humility, and we all need to focus on staying humble in all we do!
