FNGs: None
COUNT: 7

COT: Q was traveling for work last week and noted how hard it was to get motivated to workout, all the while eating bad airport food and business dinners full of meat. Q’ing Saturday was important to getting back on track. F3 pax create a positive peer pressure that supports good habits, and we should try to bring that same positivity and support to those in our family, workplace, and community. And if anyone has tips for staying on track while traveling, drop a comment!

Q: Stewie
PAX: Blip, Blue Steel, Jetstream, Rocketman, Boffin, Twin Star FNGs: None
COUNT: 7
WARMUP:
Windmills, Cherry Pickers, SSH
THE THANG:
Immediately ascended 700ft in the first mile.
Over the course of 4hours and 8.5miles totaled a 1700ft elevation gain. Took a few stops along the way to take in the views from various lookout points. The perfectly day allowed us to see the building profiles of Reston Town Center and Tysons Corner over 40 miles away. MARY: none
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
Feb… Burden Run
Mar 2…CSAUP Ruck
Apr…Marathon Ruck

COT:
Pointed out to the PAX that by doing the greatest elevation ascent (i.e the hardest thing) in the very beginning of the ruck was not all that different to why standard BDs are at held at 5:30am.

Reshared words from a recent BD that I thought was appropriate “Let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think.” ROMANS 12:2 (NLT)

5 steps to transform yourself emotionally:
Rick Warren:
1. Reveal the hurt
2. Release those that have hurt me
3. Replace old thoughts with God‘s truth
4. Refocus on the future
5. Reach out to help others that are hurt

Closing prayer
