COT: Prayers for Drop Thrill’s Aunt Norma. Praises for 3D transitioning into a new job. Continued prayers for Time Machine’s family.
Additional Notes about COT: There were qty: two 2.0s. Bowser Jr, age 9 and Tap Out age 11. During COT, I sent them away from the group to have their own COT. This allows for a safe time for adult men to share and be open with things that they might not be comfortable saying around children. I put Tap Out in charge, and I gave them the following discussion questions:
– Who is your best friend, and what do you like about them?
– What are some ways that you can be a better friend?

Musical Selection:
The album: Dreamrider by Lazerhawk

Quotes:
Mark 10:13-14,16. From the New Living Translation:
13 One day, some parents brought their children to Jesus so he could touch and bless them. But the disciples scolded the parents for bothering him.
14 When Jesus saw what was happening, he was angry with his disciples. He said to them, “Let the children come to me. Don’t stop them! For the Kingdom of God belongs to those who are like these children.”
16 Then he took the children in his arms and placed his hands on their heads and blessed them.

From Brantley Gilbert’s “Me and My House”
“For me and my house, we ain’t raising kids. We’re raising God-fearing women and men.”

Bearded Wonder Takes On The Pond

Leave a comment

NASA asked me to Q Minnow Pond about a month ago and I accepted forgetting that I had Lake Haigler 12 hour 2 days afterwards. The plan was to take the Minnows to the trails and get some miles there but that will have to wait for another time to do that. It had rained the night before and there were a lot of leaves on the trails. Didn’t want someone to do a Superman like Dark Helmet did last time I Q’d here.

Took the fellas to Harris Street Park and as Strava describes it Harris Street Hell Hills. It’s almost a mile to the park from Veterans Park so keep that in mind for future Q’s.

We did hill repeats each way with 10 hand release merkins at the middle, 10 monkey Humpers at top of one side Harris Street and 10 Sumo Squats at Harris/21 Hill. Most got close to 4 miles total.

Had a group of guys carrying around fancy book bags filled with styrofoam peanuts and a few had actual weights in them. Maximus,Rebound,Dark Helmet,Farmers Only,Spider-Man, Crystal Lake, Wooden Leg and Anchorman all rucked I’ll let you decide who had peanuts and who had weight.

Commitment to the DRP

Leave a comment

YHC was excited to be asked to Q at the Yard to restart my DRP after a post Thanksgiving smartsack. It is because of the accountability and commitment to the Pax that I find myself leaving the cozy confines of my bed in the morning. While my will is stronger than before, it is this opportunity to get 1% better with my fellow Pax that drives me in the AM.

Weather 28 degrees and dark but sunny by 7:15

WARMUP:

Mosey to parking lot with a moving COP including:
SSH x 10 completed 6 times
Windmills/IW x 10 completed 5 times
Mtn Climbers x 10 completed 4 times
Plank Jacks x 10 completed 3 times
Monkey Humpers x 10 completed 2 times
Seal Jacks x 10 completed once

After each round, we added an exercise and moved to a new location.

Mosey to the back of the school for light poles
At each pole:

10 merkins
10 LBCs
10 Squat jumps

Mosey to benches
10 Durkins
10 Dips
bear crawl to other side and lunge walk back

Rinse and repeat 3 times

Finish with “Death by” burpees up to 9 and some Mary
