The Thang:
Everyone heads to the back to grab a block…originally 33#, but man, these bad boys are soaked and seem like 40-45#.

7X Tony Hawks

7 block squat thrusters
7x monkey humpers
7 trifectas

Reflection: 1 Kings 3: 9
"So give your servant a discerning heart to govern your people and to distinguish between right and wrong."
– What do you want for Christmas? What do your kids want? We are asked this a lot this time of year.
– When Solomon became King of Israel, God appeared to him in a dream and asked what he wanted. Solomon answered in verse 9.
– Not for some things or a gift card. Not a thing. Solomon asked for an ability that only God could give.
– To have a discerning heart and to distinguish between right and wrong. To be wise.
– I pray you ask for and receive the same this year.
Moleskine:
– pretty simple workout today, but nothing easy about it. Just tons of guts and effort.
– t-claps to Vortex for doing a harder version of block squat thrusters; had to join him.
– t-claps to Metro for his sweet double gloves and all his help getting rid of some squirrels in our attic lately
– t-claps to Skipper for doing the last run up the big hill. I was hoping he was going little hill, and I would have followed him, but he pushed it that last bit and made me suffer. Thanks
– always a great honor to lead you guys
