Conditions: Balmy 50 degrees and clear morning sky’s. Making it perfect for a great workout with 9 other HIMs.

With no FNGs present I gave an abbriviated disclaimer and advise the pax to feel free to modify as needed – even modify up. (Note: I didn’t see much upward modification and mumble chatter dissipated).

The thang….

Mosey to the lower school parking lot with a shortcut through the field so we could bear crawl down the hill. Once down the hill we finished the mosey up to the school entrance and circled up.

COP

25 SSH IC; 20 morrocan night clubs IC, 10 merkins IC, 10 mountain climbers IC, 10 windmills IC

The pax were nice enough to remind me that my cadence count could use some work. I’ve been a bit rusty on my q skills as I’ve been walking around with a light back pack and running more often. I’m glad the majority of my workout didn’t require much of a cadence count.

We then moseyed to the back of the school by the track. We were a little tired so I had the pax stop and take a seat on the wall.

We lined up for 30 seconds of people’s chair followed up with 20 single count merkins. We repeated 3x.

Now for the fun and one of my favorite burn outs and workouts at the Ranch.

We headed behind the bleachers (not that kind of group) to find a good spot for pull ups. The things is 11….

10 pull ups, run .1 miles to the center of the parking lot, 1 burppee, run back to the bars for 9 pull ups, back to the center parking lot for 2 burppee and repeate until we were down to 1 pull up and up to 10 burppee.

No cadence count needed.

Pax finished up strong and we headed back towards COT for some Mary.

15 flutters, 10 Freddy Mercurys and 10 LBC.

We finished right at six and went into name-aroma.

Theme of the month is intentional. This theme, along with all of them, find special meaning and purpose in all of us. Last February the theme was Love.  Last year that theme inspired me to show more love, which is always possible, towards my M and 2.0s is daily basis during February. This year, intentional is helping me improve my focus and intentions of how I can continue to show my love for my family.  Love is what I have for them, without question and many times with disregard to my selfish wishes (hanging with the guys, golfing, consuming extra and unnecessary but tasty beers, etc….). But I need to make sure my actions are fully intentional and with purpose so instead of living in a daddy simply loves me environment with my girls they can share how they know I love them.

Prayers:

Orwell was making a big decision on Friday. We hope it went well!

My 2.0 can’t hear well out of her left ear.  She’s having tubs put in on Tuesday and prayers are requested to keep her safe and for mom and dad deal with the nerves of any medical procedure like this.

For the injured pax and for those prayers said and unsaid.

Backdraft, thank you for giving me the opportunity to lead.  It’s always an honor.

Out,
