4 non-vacationing, non-BRR-preparing, non-fart-sacking studs joined forces to get better this morning.  No concrete blocks were hurt in the running of this beatdown.

High knees + mosey back (+mb)
Buttkickers +mb
Bear crawl + crawl bear back
Karaoke  +mb, both sides
High skip  +mb

*** thanks to Mulligan for identifying the drive asphalt on the road, I almost had to skip this because the parking lot was so wet and would be slippery/dangerous…I'm sure Nittany and Frisbee were grateful too

Proverbs 19: 15
Laziness casts one into a deep sleep unmindful of lost opportunity,
And the idle person will suffer hunger.
• Easy to read this and thing about lazy, not working, no money, hunger.  My meditation on this verse prompted me to think about opportunities I may have missed by being lazy…or neglecting responsibility.  It isn't lack of knowledge.  I know what needs to be done, but I don't do it.  Why not? 
• Fear of failing?
• Fear of succeeding?
• Fear of looking foolish while I learn to do something well?
• These are some of my reasons.  What are yours?  Why are you not doing what you know(!) needs to be done?
• What opportunities are being missed?  Relationships that aren't as strong as you know they can be?  Prayer life seeking guidance not as strong as it should be?  Work not going as well as it should?
• just something to think about

Moleskine:
* Oh, there were Schweddy Blocks today.  Such Schweddy-ness.
* Frisbee = stud
* follow up text to Mulligan confirms his hammy seems ok
* great 2nd F at Cabbellas to hear about the Running Boys exploits; they looked toasted

Thanks for the opportunity to lead. Really an honor to do so guys.
