Horse Shoe of Pain

It was a crisp cool morning at Block Party, but the pain quickly brought warmth.
Quick mosey, warmups and we were off.

We ran down to the horse shoe driveway known as the Unity Church for lucky 7’s.
1 Squat, 1 Futter, 1 Merkin at the three points on the horse shoe. We did 7 loops around the driveway increasing the reps by one on each lap.

Next we ran over to the other church stairs down the road for a mini Dora.
Partner 1: 50 Lunges, 100 SSH’s, 150 American Hammers
Partner 2: Run a figure 8 up and down the stairs
Moseyed over to the lot across from Amoure Artis for some Mary with burpees (breathing exercises).

Back to COT for some more Mary, announcements, and prayer/praises.

bear crawled the length of Calhoun St. Parking lot twice too

NMM:

You ever just 3000% took care of everything and crushed it by all outward metrics, but you didn’t do it with JOY in your heart? So your wife, kids, or close friend noticed and it wasn’t the reaction you expected…even though the mission was fully accomplished

It isn’t enough to just do a good job

Handle the mess your kids created with success, but did it in a way that made them feel scared rather than safe? Failure

Take care of business for your family, but made your wife feel like it was a burden rather than a mission? Failure

Maybe it’s just me… 😉 Good thing failure is a way point and not an end point. Let’s stay after it!
