THE THANG: RUN!! The usual 3 mile trek around the campus.
MARY: Working down the ladder of Burpees, Squats and WWI, starting at 10 each and making it to 6 before ending with 40 WWIs while waiting for everyone to join in.
MOLESKINE: Today, we had a slow start and a very sloppy finish. Unfortunately, that is how many men go through life. They choose the path of least resistance and buy into the lie that thy can get by with the bare minimum. The result is trading future success for immediate comfort. That is a bad deal every time.

WARMUP: SSH, BACs, BACBACs, WMH, Runners Stretch, PE Stretch
Credo, Mission Statement, 5 Core Principals (Burpees/Merkins)
THE THANG: Starting w/ Merkins PAX then carries weight ~25 yards and back then adds in the following exercise and repeats until they’ve added all 5 exercises into a set. Once complete PAX knocks out 25 WWII’s then starts back at the top.
10 Merkins 10 SB Rows 10 SB Squats 10 SB Curl w/ Overhead Press 10 SB Burpees
After completing 3 Sets of the above, half of PAX held Planks while the other half carried weight to/from Stage (2x)
Ended w/ 25 Merkins to ensure we hit our Merkin Madness Quota for the day.
MOLESKINE: Challenged PAX to find a moment to be intentional and check in with significant other or someone close to them. Goal is to listen and provide emotional support as needed. I’ve personally lagged in this department as I’ve fallen into the typical male trap of fixing not listening which was all my M needed in the end.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Check Slack but to highlight a few: March Merkin Madness, f3nashville.slack.com/team/U06KPV4RRAT Murder Mystery, Chunks 50 Mile Relay, Wolfpack Holy Smokers, Juicy J Classic Downtown Marathon in the works

Tortoise & Hare – The Last Run

AO: thestronghold
Q: Red Skull
PAX: Chunks, Barney, Decaf, Michelin Man, Strutter, bluemule, Young and Restless, Touchback, Speechless (Bryan), Hair Band, Baby Bop, Step Back, Purple Rain, Napoleon, 1 Star, Black Jack, Cow Pie, Cool Runnings, Clorox, Big Mama
FNGs: None
COUNT: 21
CONDITIONS: 77 degrees and HUMID!

WARMUP: Black Jack was invited to lead the warmup due to his demonstration of poor effort and poor attitude. He brought the poor energy into the circle and offered an uninspiring warmup. After a couple of attempts, the warmup responsibility was taken from him and order was restored.

THE THANG: Partner up and RUN! The final run for this cohort before they move into the Work Phase of the program. Five out of Nine 4:13 Strong men set a PR today! Also posting a new PR was Young and Restless!

MOLESKINE: As men approach the finish line, they have the tendency to let up and coast to the finish. The challenge was made today to not be those men…to give the best effort of the six weeks today for the final run. We had five men accept that challenge!

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Signing Day is Friday, 8/22 at 11:30am. Come celebrate with us and enjoy some Hot Chicken and Mac & Cheese.

COT: Prayers for guidance and wisdom as the men are interviewing and considering job offers.
