After hyping my first Heartbreak Q, Handshake turned off the alarm, thinking he’d just rest his eyes for a minute. Soon thereafter, while he continued to wallow in the fartsack, 21 Gloom Warriors got after it. Following an introduction and disclaimer, COP started with SSHs, DQs, Arm Circles, WWIIs and Mt. Climbers. Next, while still in COP, we got the heart rate up: we ran in place, only stopping for a few firecracker jumps, burpees, merkins, etc. Recovery. Enough of that: Let’s roll!
From QMS over to PES for a triple check: P1 scrambles up the stairs, bear crawls over to the other stairs, run down and does a lap, while P2 does Heels to Heaven and P3 does squats. Borat was jump squatting like an NBA star while Whitesnake regaled us with tales from across the pond. Done. Quick 10 count. FEBA! Let’s mosey.
Dora time. Partner up. 100 merkins. 150 crunchy frogs. 200 SSHs. Hope we didn’t disrupt the Tomatoes too badly as we sprinted past them with sweat flying. Enough of that, back over to QMS.
Circle up for some of Mary’s ugly step sister w/ ADHD: Core exercises, OYO, no count, no stopping, just change when the next one is called. FMs, flutters, Box cutters, V-ups, and more WWIIs. Almost done. No time for stopping now: Grab a pole. 20 polesmokers. 5 Imperial Squat Walkers. 10 Mike Tysons. All OYO. I saw Gold Digger done early. Had to keep that beast moving: Repeato was the call.
Mosey BTTF for a 60 second leg hold…aaaaaaaaaand done! Way to work fellas!
Numbers. Names.
Announcements: 1.) Saturday, 10/4, Handicap Build in Midlothian, starting about 9:30am. Get with Gomer for details. Come on out, get your hands dirty and help someone that could use it. 2.) Lighthouse, Blue Moon and YHC will table the Out of the Darkness suicide awareness walk on Sat, 10/4, in Dogwood Dell area. We aim to be set up by 7:45am. We’re hoping that there will be lots of men to speak to about the answer that F3 is to the mental health crisis. 3.) Likewise, EF Hutton plans to set up a table at Tuckahoe Little League, also on Sat, 10/4, to share the awesomeness of F3. So look out for lots of baseball dads coming to an AO near year. Get your thinking caps on and start coming up with lots of insulting nicknames.
Prayer Requests: None today. YHC took us out.
Moleskin: When you eventually solve the handful of problems you have today (or they just pass, as all things inevitably do), you’ll then have new problems. They will never leave. But don’t lose heart. There are a million and one things going right today. Take note of them. We are blessed to have another day to be alive. Use it. Look for an opportunity to encourage someone who needs it. Try to be a little better than you were yesterday. Try to think a little less about yourself and notice something you can do for another. Have a great day fellas! And I’ll SYITG!
