Thang (Coupon Mile)
These PAX came to feel the pain this morning. We performed a coupon mile which consisted of each PAX member carrying a coupon around the office park near Aldrich. In total is just over 1 mile.
We made 3 stops a long the way. The first stop was after a qtr mile and we performed the below exercises:
5 blockees, 5 overhead press and 5 curls
We then moseyed another half mile and performed the below exercises
10 blockees, 10 overhead press and 10 curls
We then moseyed another qtr mile and performed the below exercises
15 blockees, 15 overhead press and 15 curls
We then moseyed back to the flags for mary. Very proud that all the PAX completed the mile with very little complaining : )

COT
COT focused on areas where I’m accelerating and areas I’m currently struggling in right now. I explained to the PAX that I continue to accelerate with my anger issues with my kids. My anger was greatly subsided since joining my shieldlock and also just F3 overall. My M continues to make comments about how I’m not nearly as angry as I used to be! Thank you Shieldlock and F3
I also shared some recent struggles with thoughts of envy and jealously seeping into my head over the past 2 months. I’ve seen such HIM accelerate and really carry out their fitness goals that I’ve become to be filled with envy and some jealously. I informed the PAX it’s not overwhelming but it’s something that doesn’t need to be there. All of us are striving for our individual goals and I shouldn’t be consumed with how well other PAX members are doing. I’m extremely happy and grateful for this group and I’ll continue to get better in this area.
My man Barn Door ended up sending me a great reflection on the importance of focusing my attention and thoughts on God and not letting the envy consume me. It’s really helped me re focus on my goals and not worrying about how I compare to other people. Thank you Barn Door for being there!
AYE – CHEAP SEATS – took us out in prayer
