“We were warriors on the front lines
Standing, unafraid
But now we’re watchers on the sidelines
While our families slip away

Where are you, men of courage?
You were made for so much more
Let the pounding of our hearts cry
We will serve the Lord”

Courageous – Casting Crowns

It’s been a long week.  YHC started this week with the goal of posting all 5 week days, running extra credit each of those 5 days and Q-ing 2 workouts.  Here I was…  4:30 on Friday morning and feeling a little lot sore.  I resisted the temptation to snooze and skip the extra credit, but who am I kidding, I had come this far so lets do this.  I rolled out of the fart sack and got to it.  Todays marked my 1 year anniversary since succumbing to the EH by Gnard Dog

Naked Moleskin

I cant put into words what F3 has meant to me this past year.  I can only sum it up that you men have inspired me to do things that I never thought I could do.  I am honored to be a part of the Southwake Pax and this is only year 1.  Thanks again for the accountability and friendship.
