You ever have any of those moments where you were over-confident and then got yourself in slightly over your head? If you say yes then fear not for you are not alone. I severely underestimated the GoRuck Extended Training Session at Pullen on Friday evening. I thought “This won’t be so bad.” See shirt below. So I signed up for the Q at Pullen afterwards because I haven’t had one there in awhile and didn’t want Floppy to get stuck with it. Not ashamed to say that I will be working on those flutter kicks along with some other core exercises. On the converse however it’s kind of fun to try something new and see where the weak spots are. It motivates me to try and work harder to be able to meet the challenges ahead.

Announcements and Prayer Concerns
COT
Bilo Lead us in prayer
NMS:
Just as I found out the leading a workout with 30+ men was a different animal I learned that a workout with just 2 PAX has a different feel also. Admittedly it was pretty laid back and I got more into talking with Bilo and focused more on the 2nd F than on the 1st. I appreciated his company and him being there helped me to stick with a somewhat-full workout and not slack off to much or feel self-conscious about going around and exercising by myself had he not shown up.
