An FNG yesterday, Piglet showed up for round 2 today – great work! FLO and Hooters with some good juice afterwards. Just announced that G-string won the country-wide September IronPax challenge (over 5000 registrants into the competition). Beast mode.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Chiliteria (Chili cookoff) is upcoming on Sunday, Oct 19th. Check 2ndf channel for more details. Chili Dip with a VQ this upcoming Wednesday at Paintrain!

COT: “Backsliding.” A term referring to someone who was once on fire for his faith, fitness, being a father, etc., but has stopped progressing. They’ve slipped backwards on the loose gravel around us. In our journey on the mountain of life, it can be easy to backslide – all kinds of loose gravel can contribute (laziness, attachments to phones, addictions, etc). 3 suggestions to help us: develop consistent healthy routines, be aware of what our “loose gravel” is so we know what’s going on, and surround ourselves with at least a few good people who can encourage and lift us up.

I had a lot of fun leading this week. I think we might be ready to form a 2028 Olympic relay team after today. Thanks for coming out and letting me lead this week.

G-string is in prime form right now, Pebbles right behind him. Thanks for the post-workout snacks, Pebbles!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Octoburpee challenge ongoing; I forgot the rest. Check the slack channel!

COT: The power of affirmation. Sometimes we don’t speak kindly to and affirm the least those nearest to us. Affirm, be kind, build up others. You never know what someone might be going through, and your words might make an impact that you don’t realize.

What a great group this morning. Thanks for letting me lead.

MOLESKINE: the extra mind game of dealing with the rain was great practice for me. Accept my situation, and make the most of it. Good push this morning.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: workouts at Paintrain on Wednesdays now: El Capitan leading tomorrow.

COT: The power of affirmation. The words we speak – especially to ourselves – have power. Every rep, every struggle, every setback starts in the mind. If you tell yourself you’re weak, you’ll find proof of it. But if you affirm strength, discipline, purpose, you’ll start to live it. Today, let’s speak life into ourselves and those around us. “I see pride, I see power, I see a bad-ass mother who don’t take no crap off of nobody!” – Cool Runnings

Thanks for letting me lead.
