A F3 Greenwood record number of PAX rolled out of the #fartsack and into the gloom to break in a new Q. A good many Pax were strutting around like peacocks in their new shirts. YHC is not sure if the turn-out it was to show support for his VQ or to show off their new F3 Mud Gear shirts.
Condition: 78* like standing in a sauna

not a professional, did not play one on tv, and did not…
Warmup: YHC began with some standard warm-up exercises. YHC had some difficulty counting F3-style so early in the morning but Papa Smurf sounded off (not confirmed but allows for the use of the video clip) to help get him quickly on track.
Burpees x 5 OYO
Sit ups with a twist x 10 IC
Little Baby Arm Circles x 10 IC frontwards and 11 IC backwards
Imaginary Jump Rope x 30 count
YHC instructed the Pax to mosey over to the baseball field where the grass was thick and soft.

YHC doesn’t know if it was because the Pax didn’t have to count reps, but there was an over abundance of mumblechatter.
On the mosey back to the shovel flag the Pax policed the grounds for trash; leaving the grounds in better shape than they found it.

Devotional and prayer: YHC closed with a devotional based on The Greatest American Hero (TGAH).
Like Ralph (from TGAH), we as Christians have encountered a ‘Supernatural’ Being (Galatians 3:27) and have been given a ‘super suit’ (Philippians 4:13). To know how to use our ‘super suit’ we must make sure to read the owner’s manual (Romans 10:17, Luke 17:6).
In the end, a challenge was made. Step up. Be that leader in your home, at work, and in your community. Be that man that follows in the footsteps of Christ. Make the first step in faith and He will do GREAT things for you and through you as you walk with Him daily.
2 Corinthians 12:9
“My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.
It is my prayer for all who read this that you are strengthened through the Holy Spirit to #getbetter as a follower of Christ.
