Day before D2D relay so decided to take it easy on legs. Quick disclaimer than slow jog around lot, back to start point for a few basic warm-ups. Then partner up for lazy dora: P1 does 10 merkins will P2 holds plank, switch back and forth until 100 total. 200 V-ups. P1 does 20 V-ups will P2 does 90 degree leg hold. Flapjack up to 200. 100 2 ct shoulder taps. P1 does 10 while P2 does 6 inch plank hold. Flapjack upto 100. 200 LBCs. P1 does 20 LBCs while P2 does 6 inch (10 degree) leg hold. Flapjack up to 200. Slow jog to behind Lowe’s. Using guardrail, 10 dips, 10 derkins, and 10 incline merkins. Jog to other end and repeat. Jog to side of lowes. 8 hand release merkins, 8 mtn climbers, 7,7,6,6…1,1 then jump back to 8 & 8 to finish. Lots of bitching on this one so I was happy. Jog over to Indian restaurant, 8 Flutters, 8 Hello Dollies, 7,7,6,6…1,1 then back to 8,8 to finish (legs never touch). Another crowd pleaser. Just a few mins left so back to COT for a few stretches.

It was a beautiful rainy morning after the superbowl. Thankful for all the PAX showing up. Quick disclaimer then we crossed 160 to Braden. Every time we passes the sign it was 12 merkins. Run down to the clubhouse for a simple plan in chicken nuggies increments:
6 burpees, 12 mtn climbers, 18 LBCs, run loop clockwise. Loop is up hill to sign, right down 160 to next Braden entrance, take a right and follow Emory back to clubhouse. 6 jump squats, 12 CDDs, 18 American Hammers, run loop in opposite direction. Keep repeating until time. Jog back to rainy COT. Gazelles got 5 loops in, others got less but everyone put the work in. Thanks for the nod Badlands!

Leadership message;

The topic was parenting…Couple key points:

Lead by example, do you have your kids do as you do or do as you say? Or are there two sets of rules?

Hold to a set of family values, is there a clear set of values and principles? Maybe even put them on the wall somewhere

Allow space for failure, don’t be hasty to judge, criticize and even being sarcastic can stifle a culture where your kids are comfortable failing in the home- much like the gloom for us, we can feel confident to try things and sometimes fail.

Be a father first friend second, society tells us to let your kids do whatever they want in the name of personal preferences, we aren’t here to placate every desire of our children, we need to be fathers!

and remember this life is nothing but dust in the wind! What will your legacy be? Do your kids know God? Better yet do they know Christ?
