The THANG:

As a reminder to the PAX of the life that Skinner and I lead, it was determined that we should ALL take a 5th grade Math EOG to determine if we really are smarter than a 5th grader.  The PAX would plank while a question was read and a contestant chosen.  If you get the question correct, the exercise will be completed with the original number.  If the question is incorrect, the exercise is doubled.  They always start with the hard questions first so…

#1 – INCORRECT – 3 Burpee Suicides became 6!

Mosey to the picnic shelter (and try to not disturb the random homeless lady sleeping on a bench)

#2 – CORRECT – 20 Dips

#3 – INCORRECT – 20 Decline Mercs

Mosey to the Pull-Up Bars

#4 – INCORRECT – 30 WWII

#5 – CORRECT – 7 Pull-ups

#6 – INCORRECT – 30 Incline Mercs

#7 – CORRECT – 20 Hanging Leg Lifts

Mosey to the Lower Lot

#8 – INCORRECT – 16 Lt. Dans

#9 – CORRECT – 2 Suicides

MOLESKIN:  We passed!  But just barely.  I appreciated everyone having a good attitude with a little different workout.  Overall, it was a pretty good burn.  The sweat was in FULL supply in the humidity. Everyone kept up with a good pace and everyone also decided that there would be no passing of blocks or rocks – for obvious reasons.  The fairly quick pace and intense activities kept the chatter to a minimum.  Sure there was the occasional glance towards Mayweather from his secret admirers, the occasional jab from Anvil, the random head nod towards the homeless lady who did not want to be disturbed, or the jealous glares from those trying to keep pace with Frostbite or Pvt. Ryan, but good times seemed to be had by all.

Prayers were sent for Luthor and son Graham, for Lil Schute and his math exam, and for all our F3 brothers.  Really glad to see Lil Schute, Water Boy, and FNG Graham trying to keep up with us old guys and Fresh Cut.  Tombstone is making a consistent presence and Nails keeps gracing us with his presence even if he does take off before Mary.  It was  a pleasure to lead as always.

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding.  In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make straight your paths.”

We always want to be leaders but must always follow our Lord first.

In His Service,

Mighty Mouse
