WHERE MEN ARE MADE
Suggested attire for Kevlar
Winston Churchill once said “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life but what we give.”
This morning 11 brave lads showed up and gave their all for the launching of Kevlar in the 20 degree temperatures of the hallowed Covenant Day grounds. The shovel flag nearly fell due to the frozen tundra but each man rose to the occasion.

MOLESKIN:
Virgin Q nearly pulled a “Haggis” by confusing imperial walker with side straddle hop. Morning started a little quiet as PAX tried to catch their breath after first hill session. Short Sale was heard saying “this is just the warm up?” The Man Maker push ups caused a few grunts and groans as Q called an audible on round 8 of the doubles. Hats off to Strange Brew for being the only man with a ruck and this was not a ruck friendly session. Great seeing fellow Charlotte Eagle soccer buddy Sam “Strikeout” Casey out for first F3 south appearance. Good work by all today.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
US National White Water convergence tomorrow which should be great. TR, Joker, and Header all look like they are in fast form after today’s performance.
Short Sale mentioned starting a “Two Becoming One” 8 week study at his house starting soon and it was a great reminder to all of us that our marriages need to be invested in and to be worked on like our fitness. The Lord has a plan for how it is to be done and if we try and do it our way it will turn “pear shaped” (as we say in England) very quickly!
If you are interested in knowing more about the study, email Short Sale at jfagan@cchrealtors.com
Thanks to all for coming out today.
Cheers,
Bulldog
