Moleskin:
1. Ten of Concord’s most elite Pax gathered at ASEC on a cool, 52 degree morning to test a
modified version of the World’s Toughest Tabata. It was a good day to stay around ASEC as
this was the old man’s first Q in 3 months, so low impact, full body exercise was just what
the doctor ordered. Great to see Hipbone back in the saddle after three months of health
issues. Prayers were said for many of our other ailing Pax as well. Please know we care
about you and help is always a phone call or text away.
2. A lot of good chatter today to take the mind off the lack of rest in the tabata and good
conversation at GWC coffeteria as usual. We’re blessed to have such great F3 friends and
know we have our backs! Be a blessing to others always.
3. Thanks for allowing me to lead today. Couldn’t think of a better way to start the day!
