It was dark. It was raining. I sat in my car, a trailer full of tires in tow, wondering how many would show up. One by one, the PAX appeared. Mr. Rogers with a solo ruck (Where was Epoxy?). Countrywide and Yoda in a high mumblechatter sort of mood. Bartman, I Like Tacos (great name), Fiddler, Carman Sandiago, Geddy, Joule. No FNGs in this bunch. Everyone was issued two coupons – a tire and a sledge hammer. I grabbed a tire and a mace. A mace? Yes. A mace.
Then we were off for a jog around the lake. First stop – the Event Lawn for some warm up.

Mr. Rogers mentioned importance of attending Gideon and other ruck workouts if you are planning on doing Go Ruck Challenge. Only 3 weeks away. Remember, it is a 12 hour workout.
Prayers
YHC mentioned my mother going into the Alzheimers part of the Cypress care facility this Thursday. Very emotional and very difficult.
Mr. Rogers mentioned to pray for couples in the PAX going through difficult times. Pray for marriages and families.
Geddy took us out with a great prayer.
Honored to lead and to serve! Screech
