Several days ago YHC sent out a poll, should we have #TheMurph at 0530 or 0700. 5 voted for 0530 and 4 for 0700. Assuming we'd have good support for 2 we decided to go ahead and just have both. Mater took the lead for 0530 and YHC for 0700.
It has been told that the 0530 Murph was 1°F colder, but somehow was still hotter, as Boucher, SWFL, Crabby Patty, Dr. Dolittle, and Sparrow all posted for 0530. I heard SWFL and Crabby Patty busted theirs out quick and SWFL ran some extra.
As for the 0700 crew it was "Just the two of us", Clark and Shake Weight; El Cap, who's been MIA lately but may be found scaling the surface of Crowders Mountain, and also Mysterion had pledged their support for 0700, but apparently lost to the fartsack. There is still time in the day to makeup the Murph. Mysterion even suggested running a 5K before AND after the Murph. Strava or it didn't happen.
In the end everyone present ran a mile, completed 100 pull-ups*, 200 'mericans, 300 squats, and ran another mile.
Clarks fingers were also about to fall off due to the cold and still hurt 4.5 hours later.
Reflection
We learned that the elementary PE teacher and a coach at my kids school, Jamie Seitz, passed away last night from COVID. Please keep their family in your prayers.
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe, for our "God is a consuming fire."
—Hebrews 12:28-29
