YHC took on the pre-Independence day Q for the Epicenter.  12 pax showed up for the return of the 1100!  YHC decided to add a little spice and excitement to the workout in a couple of ways.  First, while trying to run with the Shovel Flag, I got it caught in the gate by the soccer field, leaving it hanging in mid air.  Then I failed to place to flag in the dirt deep enough so it fell over.  Moral of the story is, don’t trust JH with the flag!

After the workout, at Coffeeteria, I decided to spice up everyone’s morning by having a seizure in the middle of breakfast.  Many thanks to Polly, Roach, Juggernaut, and Special K for getting the ambulance, then taking care of my M and 2.0 at the hospital. Apologies to Strawberry, who didn’t get his breakfast! Next time you’re in town, it’s on me!

Other than that, a standard beatdown, that went like this.

Devotion. I always think about the signers of the Declaration of Independence on days like today. It’s hard to imagine what they must’ve been feeling, as they prepared to put their signature to a document that could lead to their arrest, execution, forfeiture of all their worldly goods and all manner of harm to their families.it always makes me think, what am I passionate about enough to put myself out there to that degree, and be willing to offer up all I have an all I am in support of a call laws, ideal, person, or goal.celebrate Independence Day, think about what you are passionate about, Be at your face, your family, your goals, or whatever inspires to go the distance, and then ask yourself, what are you doing today to achieve that passion? Are you putting it all on the line?

Thanks to everyone for the prayers and support. I’ve been dealing with these seizures for several years, and hope we can get some answers soon. In the meantime, have a blessed Independence Day!
