Decision Fatigue

AO: greenmachine
Q: Michelin Man
PAX: Focker, moneyshot, Grape, Cowboy, Michelin Man, Haggis, t-cell, DR St. Louis Pax Named?
FNGs: None
COUNT: 8
CONDITIONS: Muggy. Almost underwater.

WARMUP: Who needs to warm up? Come early to warm up.

THE THANG: Decision Fatigue

1. Ran about 1 mile. Good clip.
2. Bottom of big hilly sidewalk at west end of parking lot. Count off 1s and 2s. 1 and 2 is a team. Team comes up with a stationary exercise for the bottom of the hill, a travel up the hill exercise, a stationary top of hill exercise, and a travel down (very steep!) exercise. No repeats.
3. Teams chose a mixture of lunge walks, merkins, squats, dry docks, flutters, imperial walkers, crawl bear, bernies, etc.
4. Ran about 1 mile back in Indigenous People run formation.
5. Mary – choose your own adventure abs by the Pax.

MOLESKINE: The goal today was for me to make as few decisions as possible as this is my busy work time and I’m in brain overload. As moneyshot noted, the only material thing I picked was the crappy Festival Bangers playlist on Apple Music.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Check -f3-nashville-general Toothless report.

COT: Prayers were lifted up. We reflected on Focker’s great Bible Verse decision of Micah 6:8. We listened to the sound of no cicadas.

MM out.

MOLESKINE:
YHC was pleased with the grumblechatter this AM – proved that the workout plan was sufficiently challenging. Could not place the man behind me that would shout out in a chipper voice “thank you, sir” for every exercise announced, had to be someone like Go Fish. The Q-drenaline helped push me this AM for sure, great work to the rest of the PAX who pushed themselves to get better.

– YHC shared praise for the 2nd trimester allowing the wife’s nausea to improve
– Haggis shared gratitude for the F3 community after returning from a trip abroad where strong community is not as easily found

It was an absolute honor to lead this AM, men! You put in the work and you’re better for it! Thankful to be along for the journey, and I hope to see many of you out at the CSAUP next week now that you’re ready!!
