Last WO of the year at Lazarus.
Poppins had EH’d an F&G, so a proper disclosure was given with an introduction to FOOPC. We did a short warm‑up in the parking lot while getting to know F&G, then headed to the circuit.
Mapped a quarter‑mile loop using Google Maps’ measure feature, with four stations and four different exercises at each station, each with a proper rep count, just enough where form matters and not enough if cheating yourself. My rough math made me think that would total two miles, but it’s actually just one mile, another reminder, not a professional.
Kept the group together in lieu of letting spring chickens run for fellowship and FNG welcoming. Goose was hungry for EC, had a taste and back to COT for MARY.
Proper interrogation of FNG led to name Elmer Fudd.
Prayers for better parenting, aging family members, and discernment in season of waiting.

NMM
Most people face challenges every day. Some are easy to overcome while other times it feels like war. The enemy is all your doubts, all your fears, and the lie that you aren’t good enough to complete the mission. But don’t quit. Wake up, brush your teeth, make your bed, workout, shower, and just make it to lunch. Then, make it to dinner. Regardless of how bad the day was, there will be a new one tomorrow.
When you feel like quitting, which you will, do not quit right now, that’s emotion. Instead, say “I’ll quit tomorrow.” If you can keep quitting tomorrow, you can do anything. Don’t let the lies in your head stop you from achieving great things.
Aye!
