COT:
QSource – Q1.3 – Queen – what we put in our bodies – nutrition. You can’t or king your Queen. Meaning you cannot do enough fitness (king) to get to ignore nutrition. The sooner we accept this the sooner we can work on the balance. It is as much( if not more) a quality game as it is a numbers(calorie) game. AND factors like Sleep & Stress have proven physiological impacts on the what the body does with the food you give it.

Lay the bricks –
build positive habit through trial and error – one brick at a time. What works for 1 may not work for another.

20 and 12

WARMUP:
THE THANG: mosey to the church of god parking lot where the pax did a few Freddy mercuries while they waited for the six (me) to arrive.

From there we did the cross workout. Run out to one of four points and then back to the middle. Each time we arrived at a point, we did 20 flutters (count one leg only), and each time we arrived back to the center, we did 12 merkins. The four outer points were the parking lot at the top of the hill, the small lot across from the old police station, the lot at the top of Monroe white st where the old town hall (and the old phone company) is, and the intersection of confederate and Forrest st.

One wrinkle was coming back from the Forrest street point, we climbed the stairs of the church of god activity building and did 12 derkins with the aid of their picnic tables

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,
