The Thang

LOG LOOP DORA

Pax assembled in 4 man teams and moved to truck, secured one HB log section and a block per team. Short movement to school entry pad with coupons. Teams lined up behind logs facing school drop off loop.

One Pax carried HB log section to flag at midway portion of school drop off loop while remaining team members executed exercise as follows. Youngsters modified with blocks, Peaches went BeastMode with blocks to flagpole and back, Swirly gave the log a try, logs do bite. 2.0’s were representing and stepping up. Made YHC push harder, most inspiring.

After each iteration Pax stopped and performed an exercise. 10 Merkins, 20-4 flutter kicks, 20 Side Straddler Hops, 40 air presses…there was a couple more I think….my brain got tired because of logs and bear crawls.

COT/Closing Prayer – YHC

2.0’s got me to thinking and inspired the following a random but heartfelt memory….

“What day is today”

“It’s today” squeaked piglet.

“My favorite day” said Pooh.

8 Pax showed up and didn’t run away when we started dragging logs and blocks out of a truck. There was definitely some mental and physical suck, but today was our day, not the heat, the log, or the bear crawls day. It was our day. Thanks for showing up gents, I appreciate you all and may everyday be your favorite day.
