Mosey to COT

MARY: She wasn’t there. Open to all men.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: You bet.
COT: Remains the 5th core principle as disclaimed at 0615.

YHC was a bit off from the later start time but good to have some built in “disruption” on occasion to build our durability.

The message left with the PAX with was:
The best fruits of this life are an unstained character and acts for the common good. As leaders, what are we doing to cultivate the former and initiate the latter?

Thanks for the call <@U78QN5XU5> . :eye:

https://f3nation.com/get-right is never over because “The Time is Always Now.”

If something isn’t solid in your world, what are you gonna do about it? The time is now.
Put aside your ego, doubts, fears, worry, hesitations, past, limiting beliefs, and get started. The time is now.
You know what needs to be done. Gentlemen, the time is now.

“There is never a time in the future in which we will work out our salvation. The challenge
is in the moment, the time is always now.”
—James Baldwin

Grateful to share the gloom with you this morning

Staying Dry

Leave a comment

Listen: while I had an idea of what I wanted to do yesterday, I made this up as we went along. The rain cause me to modify. Needed to stay dry (well—WANTED to stay dry). I had a 2hr drive right after the workout to head up to see my dad in the hospital

We spent a lot of time undercover. And utilized a bunch of squats and lunges. Burpees are apparently frowned upon at a moderate. Duly noted :smiling_imp:

Prayers for our kiddos and our parents.
