The Thang:

Joshua 7:12 says:

That is why the Israelites are running…

-Run from parking lot, through large pavilion, up to road, past cemetery, through church parking lot to grass outfield.

 

Matthew 7:12 say:

Do unto others whatever you would like them to do to you. (Don’t want to be jumped on, so don’t jump on fellow PAX)

-Bear crawl in a line. 1st PAX in line does low plank. Rest of the line broad jumps over planking PAX.

1st PAX gets into end of line, next PAX at head of line drops into low plank. Continue across field to first base line. (Impressive how straight we kept the lines!)

 

Genesis 7:12 says:

“The rain continued to fall for 40 days and 40 nights”

x5 Merkins, flip and do x5 WWII’s, (x8 flips, for total of 40 Merkins & 40 WWII’s) (You guys all did a better job than I did counting these! Thanks for helping me keep count!)

 

Exodus 7:12 says:

“They threw down their staffs, which also became serpents! But then Aaron’s staff swallowed up their staffs.”

-Tunnel of Love across field (1st baseline to outfield)

 

Run to grass at far end of large pavilion

 

PAX held low plank while I read the next verse and explained the next workout:

 

1 Kings 7:12 says

The walls of the great courtyard were built so that there was one layer of cedar beams between every three layers of finished stone, just like the walls of the inner courtyard of the Lord’s Temple with its entry room.

P1 runs to Inner Den, does 3 pull ups, runs back. P2 does 7 WWII’s, then holds low plank ‘til all P1’s return (Each PAX does 4 sets – 12 total pull ups, 28 total WWII’s)

(The run to the inner den from the “courtyard” was approx.. 75 yards)

COT:

Good to have No Doubt back, prayers for continued healing of his finger. Prayers for Po-Po’s church youth group and their mission trip to Washington D.C. Prayers for Chowda and his 100 mile race this weekend. Prayers for Eagle and his M, prayers for my M, and prayers for Care Bear and his family on their road trip this week. Thanks to Covert for posting this morning down range! You guys rocked it this morning! When I got home, my watch said I had 2.08 miles in!

I Corinthians 12:7 – A spiritual gift is given to each of us so we can help each other.

Thankful to be a part of this awesome group of HIM, encouraging and pushing each other. Feels good to be surrounded by other men shining a light into a culture and world that doesn’t want men to have any impact! Thank you men!

Thanks for following my lead!
