Word (which I forgot to share): Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind, that by testing you may discern what is the will of God, what is good and acceptable and perfect. Ground yourself in the Word, God’s truths and promises. Do not let the world and the media conform you to their ways and ways of your thinking. The Lord wants a relationship with You. Get with Him, get with each other, and let’s encourage and build one another up in God’s truths.

Announcements:

PT test this Saturday at Gashouse-7am. No regular Gashouse workout or Painlab. YAnk and Folsom will still be going.

YHC took us out.

Keep coming out, men! Don’t let the fartsack get ya..I am encouraged by you guys and am thankful for ya!

Elimination vs Annihilation or Teacher vs Teacher

June 27, 2020 / Dr. Seuss / 0 Comments

7 Pax pushed the rock at the first Annihilation with Gold Digger; 13 pax pushed the rock with YHC in what Purple Haze called “Elimination”. As there were two workouts at Folsom, I hope everyone felt they got a worthy beatdown. It was neat that the two Q’s are both teachers and that YHC got to, once again, lead one of his former students, Rabbit Ears. I have now gotten to workout with four of my former second graders; I am so glad they’ve joined F3, and I’m proud of each of them!! I’m also proud and thankful to lead such great HIMS!

Pledge- both Q’s

Word: David Platt: “The christian life is a daily pleading for help and experience of help from GOD HIMSELF”. John 15:5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. Phil 4:13 I can do all things THROUGH CHRIST who STRENGTHENS me.

Reach out to God, He knows we need His help and is there, so ask for His help and strength. And turn to each other. We are not in this alone. We often say “You vs. You” and that is true. But, I also look to you guys to push me, to help me accelerate. Turn to God, and to each other, to help you accelerate spiritually and emotionally.

Name O Rama

Leppard took us out

Great work everyone! We missed those who are on vacation or who “had to work”. Orangeman, Welcome to Folsom!

Pledge

Thang:

Good crowd of HIMS at The Pub today for the ” Up-around-Snowballs and Back” run .

YHC couldn’t catch Diva, who commented that he ran a sub-seven. No wonder.

Stroganoff said it was one of his best.

Sargento ran a 7.37, which, he said, was the fastest he’d done in a while!

Broke said he wasn’t going to run all five, but he did..in his new Saucony’s..and Breaker thanked him for the push!

JJ, Roscoe, Leppard, Defib, Oompah are all an inspiration!

Team Momentum-Ville to Ville

June 1, 2020 / Dr. Seuss / 0 Comments

A great time was had by all on Team Momentum! Round Up, Slaw, Love Boat, Gumby all expressed their excitement about being part of this relay. Their ability to push themselves, especially in the extreme afternoon heat, was truly impressive!

Round Up- Excited, quick, terrific attitude!

Slaw-His acceleration to the pace he’s at now..wow! Thanks for driving and for the humor!

Gumby-Wow! Super-consistent and has come back in a big way!

Love Boat-Truly embraced the whole experience and held his own..especially at the end!! Terrific work!

Seuss-Well, I accomplished at least one goal;) (I can just hear the Jaws theme in my head) and had a great time in the process!

Thanks so much to all Gashouse F3 for being a part of this! It was great to do another group race! Looking forward to more.

It’s all Up Hill from Here

May 28, 2020 / Dr. Seuss / 0 Comments

10 Pax worked our way up and down the hill at Midoriyama on this hot, but rain-free evening. I knew we would be doing hill work, so the options were: a smaller hill in the sun or a steeper hill in the shade. We went with option 2 and still worked up a sweat. Freight said he should have tapered..I’m glad he didn’t. Wet Nutz invited me to the Yank Saturday for a real beatdown, then told me his agenda…I’m glad to have an excuse. Having said that, with Ville to Ville on Saturday the AO’s may be light, so go support a workout if you’re not running!

It’s All About the Hair

May 18, 2020 / Dr. Seuss / 0 Comments

9 PAX came out to Hollywood as YHC substituted for Goldigger who is out of town. But, no worries, he’ll be back strong to Q at the Goat this week.

Much discussion around hair today: Pillager beat Sargento for “Best Bedhead”; Slaw crossing state lines today for cut; Tesla will do the same tomorrow, hoping his barber shows; Broke told me prior that he thought he would just keep his beard; Freon and SA, both neat and trim; Gump, we’re just glad you’re here, otherwise he kept his hair hidden; Dirt still looks like Spencer Tracy. YHC, well if it wouldn’t have been for a friend with a set of clippers, I considered-for two seconds- a trip to SA’s garage.
