16 Faithful fought the urge to sleep in and came out to sharpen themselves, as well as their fellow PAX.

The Laces Out crew hit the hills of Fort Mill for a little speed work (3-5 miles), led by Seantor Tressel.

The Thang

Laces In Warm-Up

Jog up and down hill in parking lot of WEP

SSH x 20

Imperial Walker x 20

Windmill x 20

Partner Up for Dora 1-2-3

Partner 1 runs to top of parking lot hill and back down. Partner 2 starts the following exercises and they flapjack until complete.

100 Hand Release (aka CSPAN) Merkins – Because we all want to make sure we are doing true, good form merkins

200 LBC

300 Squats

Mosey to bottom of “The Hill” @ WEP

1 Merkin @ top / 5 Bombjacks @ bottom. Repeat 2/4, 3/3, 4/2, 5/1.

Still with partner, Partner Chase around the track. First partner does 10 merkins, second partner takes off, at a mosey pace. (The Q nearly bit off more than he could chew on this one…T Claps to Boeheim and Java for pushing me through. And to Chowda and Esso for letting me join their team near the end).

Mosey to COT for SSH, MErkin party and finish with Laces Out crew.

Naked Moleskin

Before, during and after the workout, we talked about #ISI and what it means. YHC challenged the PAX to seek out that man (or men) that need to be “sharpened”. We are leaders. It is what we are called to do. The PAX was also challenged to look inward, at themselves, and think about where in their lives they need to be “sharpened”. Everyone was encouraged to work on those areas and seek out someone, within the PAX or outside the PAX, to help in the process.

Prayers for Bubba Gump’s brother, as well as a speedy recovery for Package….mumble chatter was that he had surgery as an excuse to wear tank tops for the next 6 months. Unspoken prayers, as well.

As always, I am humbled and honored. Thank you, PAX.
