Ran around lots of string of pearls.
Tried to climb every hill possible in a reverse bear crawl
Worked a good deal on side lunges, and moving around with ease, finished with a Jack Webb that the brothers tried to skip, but joined us eventually
Always an honor to lead a group of men I respect so much.
Fact: the weinke went through the washing machine as soon as I got home, it did not make it to the dryer
Fact: <@UGU3XR5RP> thought <@U5CVD8D7V> was going to be at The Fort. He was disappointed that DH did not show, he was also very disappointed that I was on Q. 100% True.
Fact: this Q is old, I left it all on the field and was sore for 2 days, but was still only 28% of Band Camp

<@U5RTPS4M8> ran to The Fort from 6@6, participated (ribbon TBD) and ran back

NMM:
Asked each guy to share a bit about their failures. So, many of them shared a regret…something they viewed as a failure that like mising an opportunity. Some shared some pretty epic failures and how they’ve changed because of that.
We don’t necessarily have to regret something for it to be a failure. Personally, I want to try to fail better and often. I wanna dream big, and go big. If it blows up right in my face, hopefully I can learn something for my next big attempt. Shady once told me to fail forward. I like that.
We can’t be afraid to take chances. How are you putting yourself at risk for failure? Is that a good thing? Is it a bad thing? Is it neither but thinking makes it so? (That’s a reference to Hamlet….look it up.) How can we strive to attempt things in ways that leads to good things even when we fail?
This is the kinda stuff I think about. Sometimes a lot. Often in a circular fashion. You’re welcome…or not.
The workout was hard, in the rain, and we went in a giant circle, twice.
The mummblechatter was brilliant, sometimes vulgar when Slash got close enough to be heard.
Handoff to Rosie!
Just two of us…guess it was really rainy?
Seems the fort is going soft…
