We pulled up to Midoriyama and it was raining. This has happened before and we just proceeded with our planned workout but the lightning and thunder forced us to move our little party to the picnic shelter. Pockets had the Q but planned on using parts of the vast expanse normally available to us so I told him I would come up with something while the storm raged around us. A completely soaked Swimmer joined us after surviving a rain-shortened mountain bike ride. No Blart or Slaw. I guess a little rain scared them off! Let’s go!

I had a word about being strong and asked each guy who do you need to be strong for? It could be your wife, child, parent, neighbor, friend or coworker but there will always be a need for someone to be strong. Physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually strong. We need to work to be ready to be that guy who can be strong and lead when called upon!
COT Ashhhhhh Pond took us out!
