The Thang:
Divide into 8 pairs, grab a sand bag (or 2 :coupon:) per team and mosey to hole 1 of the dg course. Rules: First disc in the basket wins the hole. Each team must complete 10 burpees to earn a throw. Each team member, and the weight, must make it to the disc before each throw. The winning team on each holes gets three "rewards". 1) they carry the 120# bag for the next hole, 2) they add 5 burpees per throw for the rest of the game, 3) they call the exercise that all must complete before we start the next hole.
We completed 3 holes. Exercises called were: 30 American hammers (hole 1), 11s on Hacksaw Ridge-merkins/squats, Jolly, ic, x1.
End with 30 s of plank.
Moleskine: From The Wingfeather Saga
This excerpt refers to Artham, who was the protector of a king and who a series of bad choice found himself locked in a cage and turned into a half-bird, half-man creature:
"The voices in his head that cried coward and weakling drew back into the shadows. He knew he was those things but feared them no longer. Then another voice spoke. It called him throne warden and protector and uncle, and at last he believed it.
A surge of power ran hot through his bones. With one final shove, the cage splintered into pieces … Bent steel littered the floor.
Artham P. Wingfeather stood in the center of the debris, bloodied and panting, eyes ablaze."
Our transformation begins and ends with us believing God’s voice that speaks over us the names of son, father and brother, and empowers us to break free of the cage of our shortcomings, which we know to be true.
This makes me think of Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s words in Life Together, "[My] own heart is uncertain, [my] brother’s is sure." Speak words of truth and transformation into your brother’s heart.
COT: @Flushy’s co-worker Jake who lost his uncle, @Crack’s sister and sister-in-law in their respective recoveries.
