Classic Worm…about 5 miles plus a plethora of exercises and hill repeats. Nice weather brought out a big crowd. 17-18 I think it was. If you get a chance to post anywhere out of region, this is a top choice.

Some great HIMs up there in Boone, but that air breathes a little differently than ours!

Brisk Morning.
We ran and we also rucked.
Ask yourself this.. Are you training for a 5k, 1/2 marathon, relay, or maybe even a 5 mile run with a dozen donuts you gotta eat during the run? Or are you training to be a runner. what ever it is you are training for remember to not let the obstacles get in the way of the fun. We are truly blessed to get up in the mornings and push the rock with great Men.
The Bed Pan is Full!
I rolled into Folsom as 3 pax took off for some EC. It was good to be out in the gloom with my brothers. I was pondering a recent poem I had read and the challenge of our witness. How many times have we hesitated to share our faith and allowed someone we call a friend to not experience God through us?
“My friend, I stand in judgement now;
And feel you are to blame somehow.
On earth I walked with you day by day;
And you never did point the Way.
You knew the Lord in truth and glory;
But you never did tell me the story.
My knowledge then was very dim;
You could have led me safe to Him.
You taught me many things, that’s true;
I called you “friend” and trusted you.
But I learned now that it’s too late;
You could have saved me from this fate.
We worked by day and talked by night;
Yet you taught me not the light.
You let me love and live and die;
You knew I’d never live on high.
Yes, I called you friend in life,
And trusted you through joy and strife,
And yet, on coming to the end,
How can I call you friend?”
