13 Pax running, rucking or riding around Dallas this morning on another warm, muggy, beautiful morning with a little fog. I had the Q but Pizza Man was there at 6:30 as a few of us started biking at 6 and then us bikers were late getting back for COT and nameorama and Pizza handles that for me as well. Thanks Pizza. For Q Source, we had a good discussion on Exhortation. We should all strive to be better at exhortation especially to our M’s, 2.0’s and families but also friends, coworkers and everywhere. I am thankful for the overwhelming amount of men in F3 who practice this virtue.

Sept. 27th is the Mount Mitchell Hike with Gastone leading.
Rolled into Crossroads for an early morning bike ride w/ 2 other Pax. Broke agreed to start the group once 6:30 arrived to allow YHC the freedom to ride (thnx). Had to be back by 7:30 but we ended up taking a longer route than we thought so it was agreed to blame it on Freight since he wasn’t there! Screamed into the parking lot a few minutes late on two wheels… wait a minute that’s how you always are on a bike, but everyone was still recovering from a great run. 10 pax total, PoA, announcements, COT, coffee, then Q-source.

Prayer Requests:
A solid group of men were persuaded to come put in some type of work at Crossroads. Some rucked, some ran, some biked, but everyone got better!! After Crossroads we discussed “Persuasion” during Q Source. If you haven’t attended Q Source please try to make it, you will grow as a man!!

Q Source today was on Trust. Our focus was how we develop trust and how pain and experience can grow trust between a group.
The best part was when the Pax took some time to share stories of how trust was developed between each other.
Trust is a Huge part of any relationship.
Trust is key to a shared leadership.
CSAUP is more than winning.
If you see a guy on a bike wearing all Camo, he might be going Carp fishing.
Before Q Source most Men ran, I rucked, others Biked, and Garmin is still down because of Malware.
Always a pleasure to be a part of Q source. I encourage all to pick up a Q at Crossroads or Coconut Horse.
Announcements, Mt. Mitchell, hike and a mini CSAUP are coming up.
Prayer request: Round ups M had a friend lose a newborn child due to complications. Unspoken, people battling addiction, Children who may be isolated during covid 19.
The Bed Pan is Full!
8 PAX ran / rucked at Crossroads this morning and we ended up with 9 total for Q Source. Most discussed “Mutual Competence” during Q Source, however, two PAX decided to use this time to plan a heist. Their confidence level seemed quite high, but I question their level of competence.

I’m Broke
With YHC on Q and Qsource, I pulled into the parking lot around 05:55 to see four male suspects fleeing the scene on foot head west on Dallas Cherryville highway wearing athletic clothes. Upon return to the scene at approximately 06:26, RP observed two additional male suspects fleeing same scene wearing neon colors moving at a rapid pace. At approximately 06:36, masked suspect entering local establishment with intent to destroy private property (use bathroom). Upon returning, suspected of potential B&E for shovel flag. Guilty parties eventually returned to scene for questioning and upon interrogation, there was no substantial evidence and all were released on their own recognisance.
Qsource: Shared Leadership. The conspiracy to influence movement to advantage. Pooling your efforts greatly increase the likelihood of success. Shared leadership teams must be proximate and purposeful. Think of teachers. They all have the same purpose, but will children learn better in a classroom or teachers teach more effectively if not proximate to their students. SLT requires Trust, Shared Virtue and mutual Competence to succeed. Five essentials are Candor, Commitment, Consistency, Contentment and Courage.
Announcements: PT Test next weekend, Annihilation the following weekend.
Prayers: Each other, Purple Haze neighbor, Huckleberry, Sister Act.
Praise: Roundup and the healthy baby and mom.
Crossroads started with 4 showing up for the 1st annual Dallas Criterium. This was a 3-4 block loop that came out to be just over a half mile lap. Thunderdome rules apply! Swimmer smoked us all! YHC was doing ok until Purplehaze threw a spike strip under my tire to take me out just past the 14 mile mark. Thunderdome rules!
Def Leppard made it through 5 miles without stopping(insert eye roll) sandbagger!
Sister Act, the site Q, had agreed to be there at 0630 for me since I was riding. If you don’t know I have made a point of this in the past when the Q or no one else was at the starting point at the start time. This is important in case an FNG or someone that needs someone to support them shows up. Anyway “some” have just been waiting for me to slip. Well the canoe let “some” think this was the case. I’m really concerned about those that want to strike at me so badly. It’s ok! I’ll turn the other cheek and I’ll pray for you! That being said we covered lead right for Q-source, lead by YHC, and as always it was a great discussion!
13 PAX either ran, rucked or rode on this fine morning and followed it up with QSource.
PT test on July 18th at Gashouse
Prayers for SA’s 2.1, T Square and family, Clavin’s M
