WARMUP: Grandpa Jacks
SSH
Windmill
Imperial Walkers

THE: We moseyed around the back of the theater around to the fountain.

THANG 1
We had a game of Duck, Duck, Goose. While Lunge walking around one of the fountains one pax would break the line to run around the pax returning to his spot. The pax behind the runner then broke like to do the same. 2 rounds.
THANG 2
Merkin Jax

We went to 5 Merkins and 20 Plank Jacks

THANG 3
Lunge Worm
Lunge Walk with each leg, then do an inch worm with two Merkins at the bottom before inching back up. When returning to standing position from the inch worm we repeated this for about 30 yards or so.

THANG 4
We pulled out a deck of cards that I thought I shuffled well but turns out I didn’t as it basically became a leg work out. With a few Merkins sprinkled in there.
Moseyed back to COT. Now time for Mary.

Struggles of the dancing idiot

Leave a comment

WARMUP: the central question was posed- if we are excited and enthusiastic about trying to make a vision come into reality. (to better serve a group that we identify with and hope to serve), how do we manage our enthusiasm and have realistic expectations for those involved.
THE THANG:
Along with several references to Q-source, the main ideas that emerged included: making sure to filter out unnecessary aspects of the vision(s) (to better concentrate, and focus energies on what is most important), to regularly and deliberately engage in reflective practices (to better learn from mistakes, and help chart future courses),
And above all, have faith that progress will happen in God‘s time, and not necessarily our own.
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT: yup :+1:
