 Chilly morning at Crossroads. Broke is already trying to cause "disruption" by announcing he was running 8 miles. Sister Act and Dr. Seuss ran with him. I chased Blart for 5 miles who chased Barrel Racer. Freight was the lone rucker. Come on ruckers! You know no one wants to ruck alone! Ooompa Loompa was running around the college. After the run, a couple of guys had to leave but we added Gold Digger and Pizza Man for Q Source starting off with "A Leader causes Disruption to the Status Quo." It was a good discussion as I asked Pizza Man and Gold Digger (Little Robbie) to tell us about how training for a marathon disrupted their normal training. "Movement to advantage" will disrupt the status quo in your life. F3 has certainly disrupted my life for the better in every way.
 I would also like to take this chance to say a few things to all of the F3 Gastonia Pax. A special thanks to Stroganoff for selecting me to be the Nantan for 2020. I consider it a privilege to be a part of such a great group of men! Thanks to Freight for many things, but mainly he kept me posting in the early days at Midoriyama with his special wit. Thanks to my Shieldlock guys Slaw and Sister Act for pushing me and holding me accountable every day. Thanks to all of the Pax who have helped F3 Gastonia invigorate so many men in all areas of their lives. Keep connecting with our workout guys especially FNG's. As Dredd says ALR. Ask. Listen. Remember. The Q Source topic this week said a great leader's legacy is built on love so let's pass that along to the guys we post with. Thanks so much and see you in the gloom!

Announcements: A big thanks to all involved in the (after) Christmas Party. It was a blast. New AO Wednesday, January 8th at New Hope Elementary at 5:30 am with Sargento as Site Q for a Bootcamp. Lots of names being discussed. Show to know.

Prayer Requests: Stroganoff is sick. Short Sale is sick. Timeframe’s M. Dry Rub’s M. Sister Act’s grandmother passed away. Teacher’s and kids going back to school (Seuss and Digger). Oompa took us out!
