Ok, so we weren’t actually at Fury, but maybe just a little sample was given.  Regardless, 9 Pax landed on the Ship for some fun AMRAP work, as well as a well-received warm-up exercise.

CONDITIONS:  Wet, foggy and temps around 53 degrees.

DISCLAIMER GIVEN

Warm-up:  YHC was looking forward to this warm-up since reading it in a Fury BB a while back.  Basically, an Indian Run, but with an added Merkin twist.  PAX lined up for an Indian Run around the school, with the last PAX in line dropping for 10 Merkins before beginning their sprint.  As mentioned, it was a #crowdpleaser.

After the warm-up, grab a coupon and head to the ‘fake’ field.

THE THANG:

25 min AMRAP (stationary)

100 Merkins, 100 LBC’s, 100 Curls, 25 Burpees

Rinse and repeat until time was called.

10 min AMRAP

10 Thrusters, Lunge Walk w/ coupon to 15 yd line, 10 Thrusters, Lunge Walk back to goal line

Rinse and repeat until time was called.

PAX Choice:

6 Inch exercise by Baby Blu, 50 Monkey Humpers by Blueprint

Return coupons and circle up in parking lot.  No flag, so more on that later.

DEVOTION:

• Thought about Duggar’s long post on Slack yesterday where he said he had been making it all about him.  Thanks for the post Duggar.
• He is focusing his time where it needs to be now, because it’s not about him
• Basically, life should be about God, about becoming the man God has called you to be
• It’s not about any of us individually
• When we boast of our strengths, we get the credit
• But when we boast in what He is doing in the midst of our weaknesses, Christ comes to the front, and then He is honored
• Paul said, “Most gladly, therefore, I will rather boast about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me. Therefore I am well content with weaknesses, with insults, with distresses, with persecutions, with difficulties, for Christ’s sake; for when I am weak, then I am strong” 2 Corin 12: 9-10
• Let’s make it about Him, and be the person he intended us to be!

PRAYER

NMS:

• Lots of #mumblechatter as soon as the warmup was announced.  ‘Modify’ was mentioned several times.
• Not sure exactly what Baby Blu was doing during his PAX Choice call, but it sure was weird.
• When we left Starbucks last Thursday, TRav had the flag.  He decided to keep it just to hold him accountable.  Guess what…..no flag 🙂
• #tclaps to Shaggy for making the entire run around the school without stopping, and also for his first Indian Run.  You make us proud Shaggy.
• Speaking of the Merkin Indian Run, what was up with that today?  Looks like all 3 AO’s had some version.  As a note Polly and Flossy, we did a 10 count at the Ship……just sayin…

As always, it was an honor to lead such a great group of men.  Until next time, Bean is out!
