Mutiny – True Grit

/in /by

Warm Up:  Nine men showed their True Grit this morning at Mutiny.  Pax included Farva, LED, FedEx, Modify, Gump, R-22, Noah’s Ark, Natty Ice, and your Q, Dauber.  Got things started before the rains came with a steady jog around the soccer field.  Circled up for SSH, GM, CP, FAC, HB and IW.
The Workout:  PAX partnered up (Q-solo) and performed a DORA consisting of 100 merkins, 200 LBCs, and 300 squats.  One partner performed the exercise while the other partner ran hill repeats to the light pole near the parking lot; most PAX kept running an extra 15 yards to the end of the parking lot.   PAX helped the six finish squats or held plank.  PAX followed Q up/down the curb to the end of the parking lot.  PAX grabbed the curb and cranked out 10 erkins and 10  Derkins.  PAX bear-crawled up the parking lot, performed 10 American hammers, bear-crawled back down the parking lot, rinse and repeat with merkins and derkins.  Frankensteins and lunges back up the parking lot, Al Gores until all PAX came in.  Ten burpees OYO.  Moseyed to the wall for B2W.  PAX crawled under each member on the wall.  PAX cranked out more LBCs on the wall and concluded with a 30 second count of B2W.
Mary:  Headed over to the shelter for core work.  Each PAX called out their favorite exercise for a 10 count.  Exercises included: pickle pounders, American hammers, Box-cutters, low-slow flutters, 6-inch counts, diamond merkins, Freddie Mercury, reverse LBCs, …  finished with stretching.
Announcements:  Recognized some great runs put in by our F3 brothers at the DD 5K on Saturday.  Loved hearing “go F3” by many folks throughout the run; really excited helping bring in Dumbo with our flags – wicked cool moment.  5Yr Anniversary reminder.  Congratulations to Mr & Mrs Natty Ice celebrating 10 years of marriage.
Prayer:  Lots of kids heading back to school; prayers for Dauber and his kid heading back to college today; prayers for Reconciliation; prayers for health recovery for our injured brothers; Message focused on raising successful kids.  Dauber shared a podcast he listened to learning that many successful kids share a bunch of things:  discipline, goal-setting, perseverance, failure – yes failure (they learn from it) and GRIT.  Grit is hard to define.  I saw 9 PAX show true Grit today, showing up with storms brewing in the distance, giving 100%, over-coming both physical and mental challenges.  As parents, our kids are always watching us.  Set the example, set some goals, give 100%; when you fail, learn from it and move on.  Grit is good.
