MOT

200’s Politicans
100’s Sprint

Ran out of time around Merkins/Swing Rows. As a groups did about 3mins of absolutions. Don’t know what I was thinking for trying to complete 100 of those.

MOLESKINE: 1000 is used 120-130 times in the Bible.

The number 1000 carries special symbolic significance in the Bible, often representing completeness, fullness, or vastness beyond human comprehension.

The symbolic use of 1000 in the Bible invites us to expand our thinking and perception of God’s work in the world. It challenges us to look beyond our immediate circumstances and consider God’s eternal perspective and vast plans for creation.

1. Deuteronomy 7:9 – “Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments.” Here, 1000 symbolizes God’s enduring faithfulness.
2. Exodus 20:6 – “But showing love to a thousand generations of those who love me and keep my commandments.” Here, 1000 is used to express the vastness of God’s love for His faithful followers.
3. 1 Chronicles 16:15 – “He remembers his covenant forever, the promise he made, for a thousand generations.” This verse emphasizes the eternal nature of God’s covenant.

Q: G-string , Wolfpack
PAX: Pitmaster, Chili Dip, Half Lyfe, FLO, Cheeks, Derby
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
CONDITIONS:

WARMUP:

Warmup: “Waking the Crew”

• Windmills (loosening the rigging)
• WMH (old pirate joints creaking)
• High knees (the pirate jig)
• Plank shoulder taps (checking the deck for loose boards)
• 10 Burpees (Swab the deck)

ADVENTURE TIME!!

THE THANG:

Two crews: Black Pearl and Flying Dutchman
Their ship: a picnic table
Their mission: travel between islands, complete challenges, and secure treasure
Each island has two treasure chests: a light cinder and a heavy cinder
After completing the island challenge, the winning crew takes the light one and loads it onto their table
The losing crew takes the heavy one and loads it onto theirs

By the final island, each ship will have multiple treasures on it, making the carry harder or easier depending on performance. Perfect payoff.

The Thang: The Voyage

Seafaring rules:
• Crews must carry their table at all times between islands
• Crews must stay together
• No running with the tables
• Every man touches the table at least once per leg
• A crew may not leave an island until everyone finishes the challenge

Island 1: The Stage

“Hoist the Sails”

Workout
• Each PAX does two full sandbag pulls then runs the bag back to the start
• While one man pulls, rest of the crew does merkins
• When all men have hoisted, crews race to choose their treasure

Treasure: 1 heavy block, 1 light block
Winners load the light gem onto their table
Losers haul the cursed one

Carry to next island.

Island 2: The first Gazebo

“Walk the Plank”

Workout
• 25 pistol squats / leg (can use the bench)
– 15 reps on second round
• PAX hold a low plank

Winners grab the light treasure
Losers take the heavy one

Carry to next island.

Island 3: The Other Gazebo

“Jump Ship”

Workout
• 20 box jumps
• PAX squat hold until the last pirate completes his jumps
– two rounds per team

Winners take light
Losers take heavy

Carry toward final showdown.

Final Island: “Davy Jones Locker”

Unload all the blocks
Each team must do:
• 15 block thrusters per man
• 15 block rows per man
• 15 block curls per man

PAX does side straddle hops until all PAX are done

Then stack their treasure chests neatly as a “buried trove.”

First crew finished wins the day.

Cooldown: “Return to Port”

MOLESKINE:
Verso L’alto – to the heights!

We can’t rest when we’ve reached one set of goals. That is the time to set new goals and keep pushing. Our job is to lead, to protect, and to be an example.

FNGs: None
COUNT: 13
CONDITIONS: Low 40s and perfect

WARMUP: NO SSH FOR YOU Pep!!!
Why warm up when you can run to the track :man-shrugging:

THE THANG: The 3 Heads of Hydra

Squatter kicked off the first 15 minutes with a simple and effective concept

Start at 0m
10 merkins, 10 burpee broad jumps, 10 air squats, 10 lunges, 10 flutter kicks, bear crawl to the 100m line, run the rest of the track (picking up the 6), and rinse and repeat.

YHC took over at 5:45

Starting at the end of the field with performed 30 SSH – (My psyop to get the full PAX into cadence was a complete failure)
10 8-count body builders, 20 Big Boy Sit Ups and we ran to the other side of the field to rinse and repeat.

Now that we are over Ocotburpee, 8 count body builders are all the rage.

Lastly Chunks closed us out.
Sprints up the hill, sets of Perfect Merkins, Burpees :pinched_fingers: the perfect way to close out a beat down before ending with some light stretching.

MOLESKINE: IMHO – Co Qs should be about keeping the momentum high and not planning to much as team. Mission accomplished

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Percy Warner Accent this Saturday, f3 Afterhours/Afterdark/NightF3 next Thursday, Turkey Trot in Crieve Hall, Grow School in December

COT: Prayers for the Clay Family, Lifting up Hipster, and for all of us to lean into community as we are not built to grow/thrive on our own.

I am thankful for you guys!

MOLESKINE:

There’s a Hebrew word my family meditates on during Passover: “Dayenu” meaning “it is sufficient.” Thanksgiving is also a good time to reflect on this idea & the meaning of contentment. Think about areas in your life where you may be struggling with envy or a simple desire to acquire more. Try to apply this principle of Dayenu & rest in God’s provision for your life.
