Main Thang: “Get To Know Your Pax Run”
Pax divided up into groups of 2 or 3 and were randomly assigned 5 different run routes that were each 5 miles. Tried to group pax together that don’t usually run together. Along with a route, pax were given the following questions to discuss so they could better get to know their fellow pax.
Questions:
1. Personal: Real Name? Married? Kids? Pet? What do you do for work? What do you do for fun?
2. If you were famous, what would you be famous for?
3. What would be the most surprising scientific discovery imaginable?
4. As a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
1. If you could be immortal, what age would you choose to stop aging at and why?
Pax circled back at shovel flag @ 0700.
Each pax was given the opportunity to share something interesting they learned about the pax they ran with. By far, this has been one of my most favorite runs so far.
COT: Mission of F3 is to plant, serve, grow small group workouts for the invigoration of male community leadership.
When you think about it, we are a leadership development group masquerading as a men’s workout group. What kind of leader are you? One leadership style is to simply tell men what to do or not to do. This often creates resentment and ultimately undermines a leaders credibility with men. Instead a leader should use influence to direct men. Lead by example, demonstrate the behavior expected, show confidence and genuine care for the men he leads. Use as few words as possible.
During difficult times like now, what kind of leader will you be? A leader focused on telling men what to do and then becoming frustrated when those men won’t listen or refuse to follow? Or will you be a leader who brings men together and influences them to follow you through your confidence in course of action? The choice is yours.
TAPS: Continued prayers for @f3harbaugh1 and his family. Please read @diopter’s post in #extendedstay channel for details. Also stay tuned to the #extendedstay channel on how we can help Harbaugh and his family. Prayers for all those impacted by Coronavirus and it’s economic impact.
Announcements: Everything is cancelled. Wash your hands before and after working out, don’t sneeze on anyone close by, use hand sanitizer frequently, stay home if you feel sick, and stop eating so much sugar!
Thank you,
