Burpees for Bulldog

After noticing the challenge from Gastone to Bulldog about 100 burpees, I sprung into action to Omaha my Weinke. I probably shouldn’t have mentioned it on that social media deal Twitter, cause the lack of personnel was obvious this AM at Folsom. So, I roll into the gloom and to see that no other PAX were present. 5:20 hits so I hop out the truck and figure I’ll have myself a solo post. Wait…..off in the distance I notice 2 unidentified Folsom rats. Looks as if these 2 were doing EC prior to the Q. YHC stretches while keeping the optics clear. I shall mosey, hit the tennis courts, nice and smooth now, for a few laps and over the horizon are headlights like the sun was about to rise. There’s my old chum, Sparky.  I was quickly informed that the rats I spoke of were actually women who apparently want to do some FIA but most likely have never heard of FIA. Aight 5:30.

warmup

mosey up to the tennis court for 2 laps or so,

thang

pick a corner for 20 burpees OYO, on your six for 30 LBCS OYO, recover then mosey around the courts to the sixth corner, I know there’s only 4 but pass through jail them keep getting it, stop for 20 burpees, 30 LBCS, recover, mosey 7 corners stop for 20 burpees 30 Lbcs, mosey 7 corners 20 burpees and 30 lbcs, mosey 6 corners for 20 burpees and 30 lbcs, since Bulldog had abliged to the challenge of 100 adding 1 for EC, we added 2 more. Mosey around and back down to the parking lot. Hmmmm……..no SHOVEL FLAG??? Welp, lets mosey to the park entrance for the pledge. Then take off and mosey back to start. Well, we went over about 3 minutes but, we knocked out 102 burpees, 150 lbcs, and logged in 1.9 miles. Not bad?

COT As men, we are all tempted and challenged by the grit of sin in our society. We need to focus on what God intended, which is “reach the lost with the Gospel!” When we focus on that, the battle with sin becomes easier. We will never be capable of wslking in glad submission to Christ, flawless, but we should strive in our hearts and minds to have self control over temptation. We are going to fall, but get up, God loves us no matter what!! We will learn from those failures and in reality we will become stronger in fighting them!

Prayer YHC took us out

It seems pretty stupid to get up at 4:30, get dressed to go hang out with a bunch of dudes, sweat a little bit, and socialize, right? Well, yes, getting up at that time for anything is pretty stupid, but what F3 has established that falls into those 45 minutes to an hour is way more than some social gym time. We are Men in our community. Men are meant to be strong and lead not only within our homes and churches, but also in our communities. What better way to call out those men in our community than offer free workouts and manly fellowship? Thanks for all you guys who push me, encourage me, and bust my chops when I slack or fartsack. That’s breeding leadership. Always a honor to Q, great work men……..I mean Sparky!
