Since we finished the run so quickly, there was plenty of time for Mary – Burpee + Squat Apocalypse.

MOLESKINE: Thank you to the F3 PAX that joined us on Tuesday mornings. Your participation was a huge encouragement for the 4:13 Strong men and made a meaningful difference in the journey. Sometimes the little things we do mean a lot more than we know.

COT: Prayers for family, discernment, strength and healing.

MOLESKINE: We had several PRs today – Wolverine, Mane ’N Tail and hambone!

Today we put into practice the last line of the poem we have memorized…“eyes front, head high, to the finish, see it through”. Several PAX failed to see it through this morning, opting to take a break after the run rather than join the circle. To make sure that everyone finished together, a surprise 1/4 mile was added in before COT.

ANNOUNCEMENTS: Only two more runs remain for this class. Signing Day is Friday 2/21

COT: Prayers for healing, family, strength and guidance.
