  COUNT-OFF & NAME-O-RAMA
  9 PAX (no FNGs)
  CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
  Stressed importance of recovery as a means for acceleration.  All of us, at one point or another, moves through physical, emotional, spiritual, psychological recovery and the intent is from betterment and acceleration.  Recovery disrupts our status quo to challenge our behaviors or lack of action to be better than we were before.  We all need recovery. Today’s exercise was not as intense as others; however, it is an example of the necessity of recovery and care that we all need to be better HIM in our spheres of influence.

Prayers: Crayfish -> prayers for upcoming discussions on job futures; One-Eyed Willie -> prayers for interactions/relationship with family; Dewey -> Prayers for Robbie Ball who was tragically murdered by his step-son.  Pastor Ball was apart of MCUTS and we mourn with his family and pray for recovery and healing.  Bottomless ->upcoming family trip that could produce stress and prayers for fun and no unnecessary drama that family events can all too often produce.

MOLESKIN:
Every time I lead this work out, I constantly reminded of the importance of simple stretching.  There has not been one time that at least 2 PAX have said, “I needed this.”  Our first F of Fitness can/does include active recovery and I was glad to be able to offer that to the PAX this AM.  Hopefully, it will be beneficial for all those running the 10k, 13.1, and 26.2 on Saturday.  As always, #fight4Micah!
