THE THANG: Run to WillowBrook and back via Orchard Park Elementary. Proof: https://www.strava.com/activities/17574144266

MARY: Might have passed her on the route, not sure.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Sign up for Bethel Men’s Shelter THIS THURSDAY! The need is great, the workers are few.

NMM: I articulated the route as starting out towards the QT, but then immediately ran the wrong direction. Nobody said anything. 😥 (Retread and I corrected the route, but come on men!)

When the leader doesn’t do what they said they’d do, other leaders should speak up. Our community needs your voice. Hold each other accountable.

The privilege of working out is one YHC did not take for granted this week. Despite some short nights of sleep and earlier than normal alarms, it was great to know I was going to be out with the PAX – the best gift we can receive – one of community and belonging. And it never gets old, just better.

Thanks for the call, McHale. :eye:

NMM: after completing the sweet 16 all pax acknowledged that those exercises would not have been done had we been left to do them our own in isolation. Community matters and today’s FNG came out for that very reason.

The gift F3 represents to each of us is unique. The common element, however, is that we must share it to fulfill the mission of invigorating male community leadership. How we do that is up to each of us.

Thanks for the call, Pauly D. And Welcome to Fartlek.

Honored,

Supermen and Superman’s

WARMUP: Mozy warmup with stops for imperial walkers, merkins, mountain climbers, overhead claps
THE THANG: After the warmup mozy we ran to the top of Main Street and the parking lot for wall sits. Each Pax would bear crawl out individually and do the exercise while the others remained seated. One by one, the Pax would take their turn. We completed four rounds and the 5 rep exercises were shoulder tap merkins, wide arm merkins, diamond merkins, and ranger merkins. (With much debate about proper ranger merkin form)
Once completed, we setup a cone at the top of Main Street, one halfway to the bottom and one at the bottom of the street by Phat burrito. On the top and bottom cones were the same five exercises. The Pax would complete the first exercise (50 reps) then run to the middle cone for two burpees, then complete the same exercise at the next cone. Once done, we’d run back to the middle cone (two burpees) and do the second exercise at the next cone. Rinse and repeat until all exercises were done. (500 total reps). Exercises were SSH, LBCs, CDDs, Squats, Supermans. When all reps were completed we headed back to COT.
MARY: Plank for the last two minutes
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel, upcoming CSAUPs
COT: Family, injured Pax, Gratitude that we get to post.
