The Afterburners Flamed Out Quick

Leave a comment

We met up at Fort Mill High School thinking we could get into the track as done in the past. Nope. Locked up tighter than Fort Knox. So we modified the route and did some speed work (Fartleks) in the back parking lot for about 1.5 miles, then ventured off for a brisk pace fellowship run with some great convo. Appreciate you Kermit!!
COT: It was had. Lifting up prayers for my neighbor’s kid AB to sort out his demons, become the great kid he is, and also for the family in all they’re going through.

Philippians 3:13-14

Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead,
I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus.

Perseverance is something that is not taught, but always in you deep until your mind recognizes it and your soul understands how to use it for good.

This AO has been challenging lately and my injury has not helped to have people accountable. I’m going to continue my efforts on what I can and understand to do which is to never give up and persevere even if it includes drastic changes for the good.

As you can see, the theme of the day was repeat – just like weatherman Phil Connors (Bill Murray) is forced to repeat the same day again and again in Harold Ramis’s 1993 cinematic masterpiece, “Groundhog Day.” Unlike Phil, we didn’t get stabbed, shot, poisoned, frozen, hung, electrocuted, or burned. We did not rob an armored truck, save a life, get arrested, drive on the railroad tracks, learn piano, learn to ice sculpt, or learn 19th Century French Literature. However, like Connors, repeated the same thing again and again.

Thanks for the effort this morning, fellas. Appreciate you posting in the cold rain and for the mumblechatter. I now know what exercise to call when Band Camp is in attendance. Thanks for the opportunity to Q, Poppins. Always an honor to spend the Gloom with you men, especially Sawdust.

Aye!
Italian Job
