KB BOP for Farmers

Site Q let me know there would be a shovel flag handoff this morning so expected a large crowd. Means different paces needed to be accommodated, perfect for a BOP. Arrived early to set-up and get a prerun in, because I'm old and need the warmup, plus it's been a long week. Jogging around the parking lot next to the school I was able to watch the cars start to roll in. This energized me which is what I needed. I love F3 workouts for the fellowship; the fitness is a bonus. Time to work.

WARMUP: Moseyed/walked with bells from COT to the large parking lot by the school. Only 2 exercises called: SSH & Burpees. Did these a few times and we were ready to work.

THE THANG: BOP was on display at a light pole, explained the BOP and then had the PAX count off in groups of 4. With 4 groups created I let the PAX know that each group would farmer carry coupons, which were also located at the same light pole, to the other end of the lot and back. Group 1 would carry and upon return would alert Group 2 that it was their turn, so forth and so on. Rotated the farmers carry throughout the workout. Most groups had the pleasure of 4 carries, my group -#4 only had 3 carries. Most PAX made it into the 20rep block of the BOP and a couple of HIMs completed the BOP. Fun was had by all. BOP and coupons for farmer carry listed below:

NMM
Last weekend I spent 4 days in Wichita for their “Disruptor 002” rucking event. We themed the weekend around “The Patriot” and how unchecked anger is dangerous.

It was clear that we often allow anger to spill out over something small but the real issue is something much deeper. The root of anger is often pain we haven’t healed or fear we haven’t faced. The trigger isn’t always the problem; sometimes it’s just the tipping point.

Next time you react with anger, dig deeper for the reason you lashed out and address that issue. If not, you will continue to hurt the ones you love.
