Conditions: About 48 degrees. Gloom is in full effect. Perfect for this morning’s routine.
Pre-Party: YHC led Kermit & Stats in a Bearway to Heaven with the actual artists who wrote the song serenading us from Stats’ vehicle’s speakers. Nice touch! WaterBoy (Franklin PAX) joined up for some burpees at the finish line with YHC. Great job HIMs who are breaking PRs in the process! When I encouraged Stats and Kermit to get in their Burpees and crawl now because there wouldn’t be during the THANG, Stats got a little concerned about what was coming….
11 PAX in attendance: (unfortunately there were some casualties to WhiskeyKnee that couldn’t make it in today due to recent beat-downs (RoadRash & Barney)) However, Kermit, WaterBoy, Sterno, RagDoll, Inspector Gadget, Nimbus 1500, Stats, ShowMe, Tebow, OldHickory & 3rd Degree (Q) got after it.

CoT/Numbers/Names
Inspector Gadget was the 9th man and shared about family (wife and 3 kids), profession (Metro Detective), has lived in Nashville 19 years and married for 18.
What we Learned:
- Today’s workout is a CrossFit routine in honor of Lt. Mike Murphy (Commanding officer of Marcus Luttrell of Lone Survivor). He was a true HIM who led and served others to the sacrifice of himself.
- Thanks to Kermit & Tebow for Coffee!!! So cool to hang out with 9 other guys for an extended time of fellowship.
- Arms got super pumped between laps…The Murph is no joke.
- Don’t eat burgers and onion rings the night before a Murph. Lesson learned Nimbus!
- The MEDIC was needed all the way around the track, but was a comfort at the pain-station.
- YHC shared from Hebrews 13 that we are not to be controlled by love for money, but to be content with what we have because God promises to always be with his people. We don’t have to fear man, what can he do to me? We are stewards of our lives and resources from Him and will give account to Him for how we used them. I encouraged folks to make sure they are right with their Maker, because every other relationships is affected by this primary one. Also, let’s live today knowing that at any time our last day may come. If you want more info, to discuss or debate, hit me up and let’s get some coffee or happy-hour to discuss further…
Post Party: Stats led us in 10 Yurpees, strong finish! ShowMe was especially appreciative.
