Early Morning Wal Mart Run

Leave a comment

Nine men covered more than three miles with an early morning trip to Wally World. Here’s what we did:

The Thang

21s – In unison PAX does cadence count Side Straddle Hops, counting aloud 1-5. Reps 6-21 are all mental and everyone must stop together at 21. Five Penalty Burpees for missing the cut off.

Run 1 Mile to Wal Mart

7 of Diamonds – Four corners with exercise reps increasing by seven at each corner (7, 14, 21, 28)
70 Merkins
70 Flutters
70 Squats
70 Bombjacks
70 American Hammers

Mosey back to AO – stopping periodically for 21 Carolina Drydocks and 21 Knee Tar Jais.

NMM
There’s an old Italian saying, “after the game, the king and the pawn go into the same box.” When our days are done, it doesn’t matter how much money we made or how fine our possessions were. We should use our time to get right, live right, and lead right so we can leave right. Stay humble, be kind, and love always. That’s the legacy that lasts beyond when we close the box on the game.

Aye!

MARY:
Flutters in cadence to 35
QL stretch

ANNOUNCEMENTS: the Jaeger is coming 3/11

All told we only covered a mile in distance today. YHC hopes the PAX still got their money’s worth of out this free workout, open to all men, held outdoors, peer led with no assumption of expertise, that ended in a COT.

COT:
Shot for the Prayer of St. Francis, but didn’t quite have the thing memorized. Memorize is my word of the year, I’m working on it.

Lord, make me an instrument of Your peace;
Where there is hatred, let me sow love;
Where there is injury, pardon;
Where there is doubt, faith;
Where there is despair, hope;
Where there is darkness, light;
And where there is sadness, joy.

O Divine Master,
Grant that I may not so much seek
To be consoled as to console;
To be understood, as to understand;
To be loved, as to love;
For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
And it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen.

An honor to lead such a solid crew.
