Link street on my heart

Written by DOAH in slack: [commentary by Band Camp]

Heart Breakers: @U01NGHPR2HW and almost @U05TY21AC2X, but he uncommitted sometime last night…

The Thang: Route attached [was attached in slack, you could look up today's date on a PAX's Strava. Suffice it to say: we hit 3 miles. FMPD slow rolled our start this morning which kept YHC from running directly where I planned to go, but we made it over there another way. No complaints]. We stopped a lot and did a lot [5 each stop] of 6-Count burpees (a BC staple), [10] merkins, [15] squats, [20] flutters, with a few LBCs thrown in for bad measure. [We did an undetermined amount of these based on keeping the group together enough so nobody got lost. Kept things in cadence because that seems to help keep men accountable to actually doing the exercises. Something about pushing through pain and discomfort together. Started with just burpees. Next stop: burpees & merkins, etc.]

Moleskine: Sweat. Plenty of sweat. And some ramblings that implied some very limited understanding of the functional success of certain systems. Regardless, we went fast and didn't lose anyone along the way… except Slash… but he was lost by choice. Uptown Girl is still greatly disturbed by my presence and refused even so much as a fist bump this morning, but like a lot of folks who hate me when they first meet me (that list is long, right Crystal Lake?), I'll wear him down eventually.

COT: The Fort’tan gave a good thought about acting on those things that we feel called to do and not delaying. Prayers for EC as he heads off to get his head shaved and his spine straightened, and prayers for NASA as he sends his little bird out of the nest.

[Here's the deal. God doesn't put things on your heart for someone else to do it. Go get after it.]

Blast from the Past with Cash

Well, YHC was thoroughly unprepared for this today. I failed to secure a Q and then got distracted taking the trash out that I forgot the flag too. At least when I realized I didn't have a Q on schedule, I thought I'd go back into the wayback machine and see what what the first workout I did. Well, the backblasts don't seem to go back that far, so I went as far back as I could which was 9/24/2020. This was the day that we renamed The Coop to Ring of Fire in honor of Jay Griggs, Cash, who passed away from cancer at the age of 51. In honor of that day, @U5P2KHLJ2 lead 31 PAX in a workout dedicated to him. So, we decided to recreate it this morning.

WARMUP: Mosey around the Nafo parking lot to the ROTC building. SSH, Windmills, Imperial Walkers, Merkins and a few stretches

THE THANG: In honor of Cash's age of 51, we had 3 cards at the bottom of the hill. Card 1 – Merkins and Squats. Card 2- Carolina Dry Docs and American Hammers. Card 3- Alternating Lunges and Shoulder Taps. The mission was to complete 51 reps in whatever combination of those exercises you wanted to. After each card, run to the top of the hill. Complete 10 Curls and 10 OH Press. Rinse and Repeat.

Most Pax got through at least 2 rounds and some 3. For those who did 2, you completed 426 reps 6x up the hill. for those who did 3, it was 639 reps and 9x up the hill. It was a sweat fest.

MARY: No time

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Bethel, Stuff the Bus, Watch the Replay of the State of the Nation on YouTube.

COT: Prayers for discernment of opportunities and selecting the best one, for healing and dealing with children's health, for remembering the past, but not letting it consume us.
