Quick discussion on my Why? As in why I’m still in F3
Short answer is to run faster…(metaphorically as well as literally) I want to be good, I want to be great so I surround myself with people who are better than I. I’m consistently inspired, and impressed with the dudes we have here. All I can do is try and keep up.
Run to the Ft. Mill Baptist 11 Lunges run to confederate street 11 HR merkins run to to the bottom of the hill 11 Bomb Jacks.
Rinse in repeat up and down reducing the reps by one each time. (here my math was off a bit but we got pretty far with this until I called an audible)
Run back to Vets park Where we did a heavily modified version of the Sgt. Major workout. (for veterans day)
28 merkins run to the top of massey
28 merkins 56 calf raises
Run back to the bottom 28 merkins 56 calf raises 112 flutters
Run back to the top of massey 28 merkins 56 calf raises and 112 LBC’s
Run back to the bottom of the hill

I recently watched the below video about taking action for those relying on you. In it, Chadd Wright describes his role as a breacher in the Seal Team. He would plan the breaching of an obstacle so his team could accomplish their mission. He describes three words that took planning into action: execute, execute, execute.
That’s what people fail to do. If you don’t execute on your plan, especially when you’re tired or scared or stressed, you’re not just cheating yourself, you’re cheating those they rely on you – your family, co-workers, or team.
So ask yourself, what is one decision I’ve been avoiding making that I should instead boldly execute today? When I say, “I’ll wait until conditions are perfect,” am I actually just waiting to avoid discomfort? How clear is my “why” for the work I’m doing — and does it anchor me when things get hard?
