MOLESKINE: The old fella that likes to run by us actually stopped and talked to me. He told me (in a nicer way) that he used to be as heavy as I am in his 30s and that if “I keep it up” I’ll get there. Ouch.

COUNT: 3
CONDITIONS: Humid

WARMUP: Mosey to the lower parking lot for some SSH, Arm Circles and stretches

THE THANG:

95% of Men over the age of 35 will never sprint again. So, if I Q we will not be in that 95%.

Ran some sprints and skips. Dilbert is faster than expected. Speed and Power.

Then moseyed around the park on the greenway.

Got back to the Startex for some ab work and then some broga to finish with other stretches.

MOLESKINE: Was an honor to lead at the discipline. So excited to see F3 North growing. Small PAX today, but that has become a trend with my Qs recently. LOL

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Dilbert accepted a new job. Wow, he’s a man in demand. Congrats bro. Dizzy Doc has added a new addition to his PAX.

COT: Prayers for all the men there and the men not there. Thanks HIMs.

WARMUP: It’s summer–why warmup? My drive from the Great North is enough of a warmup. Let’s roll into it.

THE THANG: We merkined IC x 7, squatted IC x7, and in general had a good mosey around the park.

MOLESKINE: I had a moment of doubt about getting back up that hill on time to end the workout, but we kicked it into gear and finished early.

Mini Mary

MOLESKINE:

I have a confession–I did not want to get up this morning. I’ve been pulled in 12 different directions at work with no end in sight. I’ve had to drop a class (ie. $2500 pissed away) because I was in a solid ‘F’ category. My running this week has been very poor. I submitted to stress eating yesterday. I spent 35 minutes on my porcelain throne this AM. My joints (and not my member) were unusually stiff this morning. I would have rated myself 3/10 when I pulled up this morning.

That’s the thing about the-discipline. You get up and show up irrespective of what’s going on in your life. Sometimes you’re even called to lead when things aren’t going well. The daily discipline of the King is often inviting, but sometimes it is completely opposite. the-discipline is cold and indifferent to how you’re feeling.

So you get up and go chase it anyway. That’s just how it works.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

COT: Prayers and thankfulness for our continued growth as men.

Slight mosey, some SSHs, some squats–simple stuff.
