Paying It Forward, Paying it Back

YHC has always believed in making the most of his AOQ duties by asking other AOQs or PAX from other AOs to make the trip over to Graveyard and Q there.  Keeping the AO fresh with workouts from other AO PAX goes along way in my opinion.  But, that also means when other AOs Pay It Forward, it’s also time to pay it back to those AOs.

So, Chinstrap beat us up at Graveyard last week and asked if YHC would return the favor at SnakePit.  Done!  Here’s what was accomplished:

Conditions: 21 degrees with a real feel of Bitterness

Great work by all this morning.  It was super cold and even colder by the time we finished.  We learned that Honeybun is a romantic as he ordered up the Starry landscape for us this morning.  Kukoc doesn’t like running after Monkey Humpers, even though he’s talking about crazy numbers for 5K and 10K paces.  Big fan of the Snakepit crowd.  They deserve applause for what they’ve been able to do by growing their AO and consistently being near the top of F3LexSC numbers.  Proud to lead them this morning and I’m a better person for getting to know a few of their new guys today.

Prayer Requests:

All of our injured brothers:  Praying for Ken Doll, Brainiac, Harp

Devo: Unity

1 Corinthians 1:10

I appeal to you, brothers and sisters, in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree with one another in what you say and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be perfectly united in mind and thought.

Always been proud of what SnakePit has accomplished as one of the first expansion AOs to the West side.  Great group of guys and they have stayed unified with a purpose to spread the mission of F3 in a glowing fashion.  Look forward to getting back to these guys later this year.  In the meantime, grab a spot on the Q sheet and help out SnakePit.  Fun times, always!
