Part 2

*PAX (4) hoisted tractor tire evenly across shoulders of 4 PAX.  They rucked 1/4 lap then rotated clockwise 1/4 turn.  (*This rotation took place every 1/4 turn of every lap=16 rotations per 4 laps around). Meanwhile 1 solo PAX not on the tire would carry 1 designated coupon until exchange at 1/4 mile.

*Upon reaching STARTEX of 1/4 mile (1 lap) then would the sole PAX swap positions with 1 PAX to allow for even rotation under tire/with coupon.

CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

*YHC shared some personal struggle and then Spurgeon with the PAX; theme: suffering, strife, tribulation

*YHC encouraged men to be ready for growth.

**PAX prayers were lifted up.

MOLESKIN:

This Ruck Q had me guessing what to do.  Glad I incorporated coupons (stump) and tractor tire as the PAX were exchanging unpleasantries with me as YHC.  Looks like the Warm-A-Rama (Circle of Pain) was enough to convince the PAX that preparation for 2018 Memphis F3 GROWruck is in full effect training PAX to be ready.
