CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

Sometimes as men, when our M’s have problems, we just want to get in and fix them, but sometimes the best thing we can do is just be supportive and understanding. Just being present and compassionate is oftentimes the best thing you can do to help.

MOLESKIN:

The Side Bear Crawl…..Oh…my…goodness…. These things were TOUGH! Much more so than I gave them credit for when planning. Also, I find that I tend to plan way too much and have to cut stuff on the fly. I dont like having to cut things and it makes me a little sad. The crunches in the Mary were brutal and Im still feeling them as I write this. I think Ill do more of those in future Qs.

ANNOUNCEMENTS:
City Ruck Event coming up, check slack for info.
