Circle of Trust

Leadership doesn’t end when you change titles. When approach and asked to be SLT3 for F3 Plainfield, my response was “Yes, if you feel the need to formalize it. But I will not be changing what I am doing.” The response was “Good, you shouldn’t.” As the year long term comes to an end for SLT3 and we welcome SLT4 our role as leaders will and should not change even though our titles will. If you are a PAX and in F3 you are seen as a leader amongst the community and this group, SiteQ – the most important leadership role in F3. SLT – often times the final approval based on the collective needs of the region.

Once you join F3, you are a leader and that will not change no matter what you do within F3 and you will be looked to as a leader by others in your family, friends, circles and place of work. Aye!

The one workout I didn’t try before Q’ing and the timing was garabage. I wasn’t happy that we only got to lap 3 Bear Crawls and weren’t able to complete it. AAR would be to shorten WoR to 5 minutes and utilize the entire 40 minutes for this one thang. Burpee long jumps for an entire lap on the track takes awhile.

Gamecock is now the official SQ Thursday for The Olympiad. Really proud of him stepping up and leading.

Chum Bucket handing off the SQ reins to Gamecock was literally out of a playbook with his plan to train and transition the duties. CB continues to lead from the front and I cannot wait to see what he does next.

How many 58 year olds are doing Burpee Long Jump laps, Bear Crawls, Lunges and overall hard stuff and holding pace with 20/30/40 years old? Not many out there but Bunny Hill more than held his own. Impressive to see and be part of his journey over the last 2+ years.
