To the 50….and beyond

Nice morning for Acceleration at The Box. First day on site as Site Q and on the the Q as well. Middle and Upper Management present to ensure flag in ground and disclaimer read. Following Qsource, the topic today was “M”.

WARMUP:
Mosey, SSH x 26 (IC), Windmill x 10 (IC), stretched the calves, MNC x 15 (IC)

Spur #1 – Accelerating Fellowship requires Relational Rhythm –> Preparedness. Goal is not a static state of balance.

THE THANG:

Mosey to hill closest to Hwy 21
Down and up the hill x 3. Burpees at the top, Merkins at the Bottom. (15-10-5). Complete 20 reps each hill completion (i.e. 15 burpees/5 merkins, 10/10, 5 burpees/15 merkins).

Spur – You do not meet your M at the 50 yard line. This is not a balancing act, it may not be fair. You go beyond the 50 and to the endzone if need be.

To illustrate this, we did a 4th round down and up the hill even though the thought was we were doing 3 and recovering.

We then moseyed to the pull up bars for some AMRAP. We made it through 4 rounds of: 5 pullups – 10 merkins – 15 squats – 20 LBCs. Then partnered PAX up. One PAX would hang from pullups bars while the other held 6 inches merkins. Loser had to complete 5 burpees. Rotate.

Mosey back to benches.

Spur #2 – The M is the most important relationship –> Quiver of arrows to target the M in the Concentrica

Mosey to the 50 yard line on the band lot football field. Reminder that we do not stop at the 50.

Spur #3 – Accelerating the M requires skill and love –> 1) Maintenance = Deceleration, 2) Culture is a Jester, 3) No 50 yard line, 4) M is not your best friend, 5) Joy > Happiness.

Finished with some diamond merkins, flutters, protractor and freddie mercuries. Mosey back to COT.

MARY: A little
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Blood Drive, Hanging with Stang

COT

Discussion on Servants and Masters. All the “things” of this world are good Servants but bad Masters: money, food, popularity, aesthetics, power… So how do you keep them in their proper place? It’s Discipline (1st F), Council (2nd F), and Mission (3rd F). So you wonder why this thing of F3 works, but it’s a model for behavior that works on so many levels.
