The Thang:

Run to JPII Catholic High School

1+ mile reverse Shake & Bake with 10 hand-release merkins

Each man grabs a Cindy and carries to football practice area

DISCLAIMER

2 (or 3) men on tire flips; 3^rd (or 4^th) man rifle carries Cindy to football sled and back

Switch men and continue until tire goes to football sled and back to original starting line

Repeat for Round 2 except 3^rd man farmer carries 2 Cindys

Not enough time for Round 3, so Cindy work:

30 shoulder presses

30 curls

30 bent-over rows

Run back to the Flag

1+ Mile Shake & Bake

2 minutes left, so Doomsday Clock with burpee added in. Got through 3 merkins for each man.

CoT:
In appreciation for the use of the JPII High School field, AOL shared a couple of quotes from Saint John Paul II:

“The way Jesus shows you is not easy. Rather, it is like a path winding up a mountain. Do not lose heart! The steeper the road, the faster it rises towards ever wider horizons.”

“There is no evil to be faced that Christ does not face with us. There is no enemy that Christ has not already conquered. There is no cross to bear that Christ has not already borne for us, and does not now bear with us.”

Polo encouraged everyone to join him at the Bear Complex ruck workouts. Bus leaves at 0440.

FNG Nate will be starting a mission at UM in Ann Arbor. Congrats and prayers for him carrying out God’s work.

Chernobyl, as a former Michagander recommended against it (just kidding).

Wham-O is a world champion disc golfer and started signing NIL deals after the CoT.

Singlet is back from his Friday absences. He set 2 personal bests in Colorado at elevation. He also is ready for the Jax Zoo field trip.

Mr. Kotter reminded us of John 6:33 and one of his vision words is perspective. Following God does not mean we will not have hardships in this life, but we face them with a different perspective.
