The Fort pledge to help another Pax out

Its Christmas time and the word of the month is giving so I am asking if you would take moments pray about giving to help a fellow pax. Last year Stang got the Fort and the Rock pax to donate gift cards, cash and presents for me and my family.  This was huge for me and my family, with that  being said I feel the need to help a fellow pax and give back. I have been in touch with our pax of the Fort looking for someone to help out. This morning in COT it was mentioned by Destiny that a fellow pax’s son has just been diagnosed with leukemia and his wife is pregnant with twins. Then again Ginsu and Rock thrill had a tweet about it and come to find out it is an Area51  pax named Bout time his sons name is Jennings. This hits close to home and just knew this is who we need to help this year. a few

If I have never had the pleasure of posting with you in the Gloom I would like to take a second and share my story, Dec 2015 on Christmas eve my 2.5 year old daughter was diagnosed with Leukemia ALL Type B, on Christmas day she had surgery to have a port installed and her first 3 rounds of chemo. We spent Christmas in the hospital and I broke down never cried so hard in my life. I reached out to God prayed that everything will be okay and about 10 min later after the took my daughter back for surgery he answered my pray because a peace just came over me and heard the words its going to be okay.  The last 2 years have been a hard 2 years with ups and downs but also have enlightened me, allowed me to get closer to God.  It also allowed me to become apart of F3 with out the men of this group not sure where I would be mentally and physically today. I like to thank you for the push the words of encouragement.

 

I am asking pax to give what your heart tells you. Prayers gift cards, cash etc. I have seen what awesome pax you can be when challenged to give you all always go above and beyond.

See your site Q’s for collections and or Dark helmet , Stang, Witch hunt, Royale and Cornerstone

 

2 Corinthians 9:7

Each of you should give what you have decided in your heart to give, not reluctantly or under compulsion, for God loves a cheerful giver.

Proverbs 18:16

A gift opens the way
and ushers the giver into the presence of the great.

Luke 6:38

Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together and running over, will be poured into your lap. For with the measure you use, it will be measured to you.

 

Thanks Again HIMS

Wally World and Baxter Neighborhood Run

I am missing one from this of PAX with us. Sorry about that. Tweet me the name if someone know it.

Yes. As usual. We ran. Some slower than others. Some further than others. Sticking to the Clydesdale tradition: multiple routes, speeds and experience levels.

Please keep the prayers mentioned on your mind. Families at Thanksgiving. Travels. The medical issues, and Sweeper’s upcoming exams at USC

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!!!

22 PAX braved the Clydesdale pace, some went their own way rather than face the excruciating hills of the Pineapple Loop, some, faced their fear.

The thang:

I run along the avenue
I never thought I’d meet a PAX as slow as you
Meet a PAX like you

With messy hair and sleepy eyes
The least you could do is keep up with the 6
Keep up with the 6

And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I ran from 515 to 600ish
I couldn’t get away

A street lamp above your head
A beam of light comes shining down on you
Shining down on you

The street lamp is moving nearer still
A hole in the sidewalk comes in view
Hole comes in view

And I ran
I ran so far away
I just ran
I ran from 515 to 600ish
I couldn’t get away

 

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow

And, yes, we ran

The Thing:

We had 4 or 5 in prep for Ragnar head out on the trails. Most everyone else headed to Wally  World. Flat Tire reminded the Pax to pickup relief supplies while at Walmart for the team headed to Florida. Our prayers are with them and the people they will touch while helping out in the disaster area.

COT:

We finished up with a ball of man.

Prayers and Praises – All kinds of praises and prayers today. Family, marriage, health, Irma, the F3 Columbia mission team diverted to Florida, kids in school, etc…

It was a pleasure running with these guys!

Week 12 of 2017!  I awarded the prize of picking a route at Clydesdales this week.  To keep things simple it was the 1.5 mile loop of Market-Sutton-160.  For those that are looking for a run to just get loose (including yours truly) you can pick your miles with laps.

Moleskin

Welcome FNG Chameleon!  Good work to his father, Culture Club, for bringing him out.  Prayers go to the sick and those that were lost recently.  And pray for those that are participating in a CSAUP, that they remain healthy through the event.  Anchorman PSA: buy life insurance.

Right on to Munn Road towards Fort Mill High
Left on to Harris
Left on to 21
Left on to 160 and back to Starbucks for the short runners like me. (3.75 miles)
Others went to the Kingsley entrance on 21 and put in an additional mile or so. (Around 4.5 to 4.75 miles)

Announcements: Joe Davis next weekend! Remember, you can only do the 5k if running with a 2.0. Otherwise 10k it is!

COT & BOM: prayers for safe travels, prayers for our families, prayers for Car Bomb and his wife expecting a baby any day now.

Longshanks came stumbling in at the end looking for a coffee fix.

It was a pleasure working out with you guys. Have a great New Years!

Run up Market St.
Turn Right on Sutton. Run down Sutton.
Turn right on 160. Run 160 towards Starbucks.
Turn right on Market.

Repeat 3 times for a little over 4.5 miles.

And while your at it. Try not to run alone. Run with at least one other person. Maybe 2 and get some fellowship in.

COT and BOM

Announcements – Read your newsletter!! Joe Davis Run, Yeti, Christmas Eve Convergences – The Yard (The Fort) and Old Towne (The Rock).

NM:

Not much to say here other than enjoyed my conversations with Boeheim and Tater this morning. Good to have Tater back out.

Thanks Gridlock for the oppourtunity to lead.

Longshanks out.
