I had the pax split up into teams and run in triangular patterns on the tennis courts. We did this twice on one side and then ran to the other end and repeated the pattern.

We met in the middle and circled up for some mary. Burpees were called, cherries were picked, and there were some Kraken, hand release merkins, and one pax who called a combination of two things (but no one (if smart) dares to defy Hacksaw).

With 5 more minutes to spare we ran or walked two lapse around the courts.

THAT’S TIME!

The triangles we ran were meant to create a star shape (to better remind us of the reason for this season and who we should celebrate every day of our lives). Sadly, I stink at Strava Art (first attempt was a failure). According to one of the Pax’s Strava it was a moderate exercise (which according to Round up really means “You suck and need to step it up”).

Regardless, thanks to all who showed up. I am grateful for each and every one of you. I wish you and yours a very, merry Christmas and a very, happy New Year.

Announcements:
Convergence at Mydoriama January 7th at 7am.

Prayer Requests:
Big Pappy’s family, Gaston County foster kids, Ozark’s in-laws, Sister Act’s family, Police Officers (but specifically the family of the lady officer that passed away this week), any requests spoken that I forgot, upspoken and otherwise.

Smoke ’em if you got ’em (or better yet, say you did and don’t).

I’m Stogie, and I’m out!

Forward or Backward?

I think this is a good question to ask ourselves at times in our lives, as there is no standing still. We are either going in one direction or the other.

8 pax ran on a cold morning at the Pub. Opinions seemed to differ as to which direction is best for the “Lee and Perry” run. Though it is more uphill at the beginning, YHC still prefers to run it backwards. Termite ran 8 1/2. Defib did a warm-up EC. Olsen had a new experience.

Announcements:

Convergence-January 1, 7a.m. Midoriyama.

Defib announced upcoming EC at Coconut Horse.

Requests:

Families traveling

Word:

And a voice came from heaven, “You are my beloved Son; with you I am well pleased.”

Mark 1:11 ESV

“When God sees the believer, He sees Jesus and His perfect obedience,  and so He says to us what He says to Him: ‘With you I am well pleased’. God is pleased with us!! And because God is pleased with us, we can live in a  way which pleases God.” Tim Keller

Nice work, men! Merry Christmas!
