Announcements- Saturday workout is at Epicenter. The Q was questionable, but I looked and Koby has it locked down. Hulk has a friend that is a chaplain with Delta Force that is in Syria. He is looking for donations of K-cup coffee, peanut butter, tuna, and cigars to use in his ministry to troops. Give Hulk a shout if you can help. Peckerwood mentioned a 5K for suicide awareness called Here4AReason. Here is the link to sign up https://runsignup.com/Race/SC/Greenwood/Here4AReasonSuicidePrevention5K They are also looking for sponsors.
Prayer requests/praise reports- Meatloaf’s wife’s uncle is scheduled for surgery to remove a tumor. Kiley Waters recovering from a tree falling on him. Unspoken prayer requests that we all have. The Lord knows what we have on our hearts and minds.
NMM- Pulled into Starbucks at 5:05am to see a good many vehicles and very few bodies. There are a lot of long runs happening with the rapidly approaching Chicago Marathon, so several of these PAX hit the streets early for some XL. As everyone started straggling in, it appeared we were going to have a strong group for the COT. It was good to see Meatloaf, Mac n Cheese, and Uncle Buck out in the gloom. Definitely been missing these guys. There are also some newer PAX that are showing gains like crazy. Lemon and Pinto are seeing the payoff from what they have invested. This is also a result of the investments made in them from other PAX. That is why it is so important to post and be there, not only for yourself, but for the PAX to your left and to your right. Every PAX that steps up to Q is there to give back to the PAX that have stepped up in the past to lead them. There are some PAX here that have not stepped up to Q that could deliver some killer workouts. I challenge any of these PAX to step out of your comfort zone and give back what has been freely given to you. Hit me up. I will help come up with the work or even CoQ a workout with you. We can make it happen!
Always a pleasure serving my brothers. Great work men!
