Courage is alive at Dawn Patrol

Leave a comment

Let me start by saying the weather is fantastic right now. Honestly, it perfect F3 weather. Warm enough to build up a sweat but lightly chilly enough to not sweat too much.

Nonetheless, YHC was honored to Q the DP. It was the second day of Q duties for me so there was a rinse and repeat option but I decided to leverage the area around WEP and do something a little different than yesterday.

WARMUP:
Cherry Pickers x 10
SSH x 30
Merkins x 10
Stretch
Windmills x 10

Mosey up the hill towards Sweet Baby Jesus stopping at the first stop light

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

Read the newsletter; Be involved

COT:

All Pax shared examples of their courage. Interestingly enough, many included opportunities given in F3 which I found interesting and exciting. We are a leadership group, exhorting men to grow as leaders. That requires courage to dismiss fear and other worldly things. Let us not forget this.

Prayers for:
– KJ
– Davis new job opportunity
– Untangling our identity from work
– Grace to demonstrate courage when everyone else is fearful
