The Road to Perdition

What is The Road to Perdition you might ask?

(Aquaman, it’s not the Road to Pro-creation, it’s the Road to Perdition)

The word “perdition” is a word that is used to describe a place of utter destruction or ruin.

How many of us have traveled the Road to Perdition?

Mentally, Physically, Emotionally, Spiritually.

YHC certainly has labored painfully on this road in more ways than one… and is very thankful / grateful for the people, books, songs, movies, and places that have provided inspiration and encouragement to Get Right and follow the Narrow Path to Peace.

F3 has certainly been one of those positive forces in YHC’s life.

With goals freshly set for the first quarter and accountability in place, and the Whetstone Project coming up (EVERYONE NEEDS TO BE A PART OF THIS), YHC chose this title, because the soundtrack for this Tom Hanks gangster movie has been used regularly by YHC’s mentor to write goals and reflect and dream.

The music is stirring, ominous at times, and really can get the juices flowing!!!

A little pre workout recon went down, planting little slips of paper on the route, that would be uncovered by the PAX as we progressed through the pain.

Cones were set, and YHC trucked back to EBA to be a the flag at 5:30 to meet the wide awake, jovial Ruckers and many others on this beautiful Wednesday morning.

Inspiration Quote by Tony Dungy read by Abu, who found the quote under a rock.

Mosey to Perkins Athletic Complex.

Bermuda Triangle – Cousin to 4 Corners.

Each team starts at a corner and works their way around. Staying together, counting exercises IC, taking turns leading. Two rounds around the Triangle with Peter Parkers, Diamond Merkins, and Ranger Merkins. Audible called for round 2 to replace Diamond Merks with Imperial Squats. Chest was getting too swole!!!

Simply an honor to Q such an awesome group of men.

Let’s all remember that each one of us is battling something.

Some of those battles find us on roads that can lead down some pretty rough paths.

That’s why we need each other.

To hold each other accountable.

To encourage each other.

Inspire each other.

Get ready for the Whetstone, boys.

YHC just has a gut feeling that some serious chains are going to be broken and some revelations made during this process.

Don’t miss out!!!

Hoping that the quotes used today blessed or inspired someone in some way.

There is a photo of the quotes on Twitter in case you missed it.

Will let those words do the rest of the talking.

Love you guys
