Concrete Christmas

4 PAX started the cool/cloudy morning with a 4:30a ruck through the gloom. The fearsome foursome blazed new paths through the metropolitan Simpsonville tundra.

Then, at 530 sharp began the official concrete Christmas celebration. It started off with the warm-up:
25- SSH
25- Hillbilly (accidental voice fluctuation by YHC caused a few PAX to miss some reps… #toooldforpuberty)

Then mosey to a super-secret hiding spot for the TOT concrete coupon pain devices. Each man grabbed his own 31lbs (according to F3 Whisper) block and headed to the church parking lot.

This Q was inspired by 2 different pain sources. Spongebob’s DOD Q from Saturday before last got together with ACA’s “12 Days of Christmas” and gave birth to this monstrous beast.

Deck of Death:
Spades= Jack the Rippers (4 LBC’s for every 1 big boy sit-up)
Clubs= Curls
Hearts= Goblet squats
Diamonds= Burb-n-merks

Every five(ish) cards was accompanied by a jailbreak from curb to curb of the parking lot. The first set of 12 burb-n-merks counted down to 1, from that point on it was audibled to be single count. Towards the end of the pain burb-n-merks were modified down to manmakers.

Then the PAX returned the concrete behemoths to their top-secret location. Mosey back to the tower for a Mary-esque event.

25 Monkey Humpers
25 Snow Angels
Merkin Ring of Fire down from 5

Gideon’s house convergence this Wednesday (there will be ham)
Bambi et. all are working on a superman-beatdown to be announced this week.

The PAX had no personal prayer requests. This means that the Lord has blessed us well. Let this week be a time when we act as men especially thankful for what the Lord has given us. 750,850 people are going to leave this world between today and Christmas, and every single one of them are deserving of separation from God for their sins… some of them, however, have been redeemed for all eternity by the Grace of God through Christ’s sacrifice.

As we spend this next week with family and friends, let us all love one another enough to share the Gospel with as many people as possible. There is no way of knowing who will be among the 750,850, but we do know what we are called to do as believers while we still have breath in us.

“Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:16-20 (NASB)
