The Thang: Pax ran to grab a block and headed to the trail for the Swamp Fox.
The Swamp Fox is Simple but NOT EASY! The first round is always done together on Q and consists of 20 burpees, 20 V-UPs and 20 Squats with blocks and a . 4 mile run. After round one it’s up to each man to finish as many rounds as possible on his own with par for the course being 5 or 100 of each exercise and a 2 mile run. Everyone gave their best! Almost everyone did 4+ rounds, Many did 5 + Rounds and several made it for a record breaking 6! Unfortunately my voice recording failed to save but I remember a few so T-Claps to Bouche’ for 5.5 rounds with a 20 lb vest, Futurama for 6 rounds (I think) with a weighted vest, Saget for completing with a ruck and TKO for 6 full rounds!
Devo was about David trying to do the right thing in the wrong way. Often we have good intentions but God has spelled out some specific instructions in the Bible that tell us how he wants things done. Trying to do the right thing in the wrong way, even with the best of intentions, can result in disaster as we saw when King David tried to bring the Ark of the Lord back to Israel without following God’s method and a man was killed over it. Once David recognized his mistake and went about it God’s way the Lord helped them with the task. Similarly God has given us one way to know him. Jesus says “I am the way, the truth and the life, no man cometh unto the father but by me.” “He that believeth on the son hath everlasting life but he that believeth not on the son is condemned already because he hath not believed on the name of the only begotten son of God.”
