YHC instruct two lines at the end of parking lot. Slides/shuffles down the two combined white parking space lines then forward to the next set and slide opposite direction. Do this all the way down the go right into the agility ladders. We had four quick loops to stay on the ladders. Then we moseyed over toward the b-ball court parking area for some warm up exercises.

Well this one could have turned out several ways. Walked outside this morning to a breezy post rain dark morning. Great, I think this is gonna be windy. Loaded up the Tailwind for 187 and I, checked that the camelback was sealed, and hopped in the truck. Arrived at Ting to a great group of men waiting for a pleasant level of excitement. As 187 grabbed the goods, the joy of calories diminished when he realized he forgot his camelback at home. Shovel flags planted.

Warm Up: Short job, IW, Hillbillies, High Knees, Frankensteins
The Workout: Run the HSHM course. – Lipstick had to shit <1 mile into the run. Ice cream will do that to a lactose intolerant person. Somehow H1N1, R22, and Farva ended up on crossway, Yellow card needed a pee break, M4L just ran where ever. Despite the situations, this is one crazy fast group of men. Honored to run with you. I’ve added men that ran U-Turn, started early, or ran lifetime. Let me know if I forgot you.

Discussed “change” and the importance of being able to change your thoughts. One thing that is always constant is change. We can not control situations, people or things. We can just change our thoughts. Instead of “why me” we should change our thought to “what am I going to learn from this”.
Prayer:

Prayers to Double D and family, Dogpound’s wife and family.

Circled up. Group was “ENERGIZED” with activity. The quickest way to change our emotions is by changing our thought.

Thanks for allowing me to lead today gentlemen. Always an honor!
