2.0 Friendly day at Folsom PreBlast

  1. About a month ago we had an idea to do a 2.0 friendly WO at Folsom! We will be doing this once a month through the summer, starting Saturday May 19th! I know personally that my boys love to come to a workout any chance they get! I love for them to be around my fellow f3 brothers, HIMs! Its good for them to be around good men, who work hard, love their wives and children and are there for one another at the drop of a hat! All of these are things that we see less and less of in our community! So, on May the 19 get up, bring your 2.0s and head to Folsom! If you dont have any 2.0s, we would still love for you to come! You can either help out with the Q, or there will be someone leading a running group at the same time!

Date- May 19th

Time- 7:00 am- 8:00 am

Afterward- breakfast at the Country Kitchen!

Contact me if you are interested in helping Q that morning, i would like to get the pax involved!

Thanks,

Sparky

Proverbs 22:6

Blocks

Last week the site Q at Folsom caught a lot of slack from the Folsom pax on the Good ole  GroupMe chat! So, I reminded the pax that I had the Q on Tuesday, go ahead and get it all out of your system,  because come Tuesday you want be able to pick up your phone! I tried to deliver!

Pulling in at Folsom, it was a good site to see! Medicine Woman getting his Ruck on! And the parking lot was pretty full for a Tuesday! 530 hits!

10 burpees oyo! Mumble chatter already!

Lets mosey, to the flag, pledge, mosey back to the “trucks”! Grab a Block!

20 to 1! If you put your block down during the the WO, that will cost you 5 burpees OYO!

20 squats

20 shoulder press

20 curls

20 triceps

then 19 each, 18 each, 17 each, you get the picture! Somewhere around the 16 rep mark, the burpees started for some of the pax! All of the Folsom pax pushed hard, hats off to Hank! I think that guy is a machine! Lots and lots of mumble chatter during this, I think some did burpees, to get a break from the blocks, weird?

5 minutes left, we have time for one more mosey!

Im very proud of these Folsom men, they are a solid group of HIMs, and I am blessed to be a part of!

Announcements: warrior dash, beginning of June, Memorial Day 5k, Memorial Day Murph! Adding a run/ruck day at Folsom on Wednesday

Prayer request: some unspoken, Allen Tate’s mother in law, Bedpans son, each other and families!

Like a triad Ninja he come running (1.5 miles Aye!) in looked up ice on his mask, said what’s up Bedpan. I thought to myself today is a day to be maniacs! (I’ll explain later),all of the sudden the parking lot was full at Folsom. 11 HIM’s showed up for my VQ. It’s AT’s bday and he showed up with a codpossum ready to get down in the Gloom.

Here deer deer deer

On the way home from work yesterday I stopped off by southern states and picked up several 50lbs bags of deer corn, to put out for the deer! These bags of deer corn will also make for some great mumble chatter at Folsom! Before parking at Folsom, I took the bags and dropped them off in the bottom parking lot then headed up to the pax! Pulling up I see Sister Act and Swimmer joined us this morning, good to see them on a weekday. 530, time to start!

2 unicorns and a half Murph

Medicine Woman had the Q for Thursday, but wasn’t able to make it. But he did inform the pax the night before on the good ole Folsom group text that we will be doing a Murph in the morning! Also, Allen Tate informed us that he will be there! Yeah right! I rolled in right on Sparky time, about 535, and the pax was already warming up, all the “trucks” in there normal places, wait a minute, did roadie get a new truck? Nope, it’s Allen Tate (unicorn) number one! They finish Mnightclubs till I get there, no MW, but we already had our orders! Mosey to the flag, pledge, then make a lap around the park, knocking out our first mile, man that Montross is getting fast!  We meet up at the playground to start on our Murph, we were planning on doing full Murph but we only got half, 50 pull-ups, 100 merkins, 150 squats! Look at the watch, 603! Let’s mosey! Wait , who is this creeping in? It’s Gomer,(unicorn) number two! How rare is this? He jumps out of his vehicle, with jeans and Justin boots on, files right in line with the pax, we knock out another mile and a half! Allen Tate and gomer looked like they haven’t missed a beat! Everybody did a great jod, some even ran a little extra on that last mosey!

Forge “Gods mighty Men”

Main scripture was 2 Sam. 23:8-39

Down through the ages God has worked through a band of committed people! God doesn’t work through lukewarm! Only through those who are fervent in there love for Christ and his kingdom!

2 Sam 23 David had a group of mighty men, who were committed to him and his kingdom! What characterized these men? 2 things, they were attracted to David’s person ( because good leaders attract people) and they were committed to his cause!

similarly, the church needs mighty men who are attracted to the person of Christ and committed to his kingdom!

David Livingston was a missionary in Africa, and some friends wrote him; “we would like to send other men to you. Have you found a good road into your area yet?” Livingston wrote back, “ if you have men who will only come if they know there is a good road, I don’t need them. I want men who will come if there is no road at all.”

We may not know what God has planned for us? But if we are about his kingdom we want worry about the road!

If you haven’t made it out to The Forge on Wednesday evening, you are missing out on something special! Come on out, all are welcome!

Announcements- 3rd F event, April 13th don’t miss it! Also my son “madden” gave his life to Christ this past Saturday! God is good!

prayer request: the lady that is our waitress at the Forge asked if we would pray for her and her grandson!

Thanks men for allowing the opportunity to lead!

Cold hands?

I pulled in running a little late as usual! 6 pax where waiting patiently? I opened my truck door and yelled what time is it? Someone answered 530! Stepping out of the truck I yell back “ let’s mosey “! So we make our normal trip to the flag , on the way back I asked the pax, option A or option B? Quick reply, option B ! A is block work, and B is burpees 20 to 1 on the tennis courts! When I informed them of this the mumble chatter quicky spiked! Little did I know Hanks Gout was flared up in his knee! So being the merciful guy that I am, we fell back on option A! We grabbed blocks, circled up and did 20 to 1

shoulder press

squats

curls

triceps

somewhere along the way there was some fussing about cold hands, #showtoknow! Everybody did a great job! Proud of the folsom crew!

prayer request- Hank, Def, Silas, Weston, each other

announcments- community 5k,

csaup run

Good work men! And Volt for getting in a little ec before the WO!

 

 

 

 

 

 

Perseverance / Forge

got questions.org says “ the doctrin of perseverance of the saints is founded in the promise that… He who began a good work in will bring it to completion at the day of Jesus Christ. Phili. 1:6

All who have been “ born again “ do have eternal security and will persevere.

James 1:2

Galations 6:9

2 Timothy 2:12

Philippians 1:6 are some of the scripture shared!

Paul wrote to Timothy and reminded the young pastor to “ watch your life and doctrine closely, persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers.” (1 Timothy 4:16)

With the recent passing of Billy Graham we are reminded that through our perseverance in Christ that we are saved and so are our hearers! Like our children, wives, coworkers,ect.

So I urge you brothers to persevere in your faith because you never know who is watching and listening, and may come to know Christ through you!

Brothers if at all possible come out on Wednesday night! It’s an awesome time to share and sharpen one another to fight the good fight! And press forward in our daily spiritual battles, with an eternity spent with Jesus Christ as our prize!

 

Folsom-Murph

Good ole Volt had the Q this morning! And guess what… I was late! I rolled into Folsom at about 538, the pax were saying the pledge when I was rolling in, a good site to see! Little did I know what I was getting into!

warmup- so I’m told! Ssh, Hillbilly’s, Gravel pickers, 15ic

they moseyed to the flag at the entrance of Folsom, pledge, mosey the long way back to the playground! After running around looking for the pax, this is where I found them! Some were doing merkins, some were doing squats, and some were doing pull-ups, that’s when I was thinking “ if I just keep on running, I wonder if they will notice me?” I join up with the pax, yep a “Murph”! We finished the 20 sets of 5 pull-ups, 10 merkins, 15 squats, then run that last mile! I should have known when I saw Volt had the Q , it wouldn’t be easy!
