40’s Friday

Friday February 22, 2019

In the book of Acts, Peter and John were preaching the gospel during which they healed a cripple with an interesting side note (I thought). Acts 4:22 “For the man they had miraculously healed was over 40 years old”. This signified he had been that way a long time & considered too far gone to be healed. But nothing is impossible with God. Though the 4 of us were over 40, we’re blessed with good (though not perfect) health. For some it may feel like an impossibility getting up before dawn to exercise in the cold/rain/snow/heat. I know I did.

Mosey between two points 60 yards apart.
At each point we did a different exercise. YHC named the first three: Merkins, World’s Greatest Stretch, Monkey Humpers. Then I threw in a twist that required some thinking under duress – had the PAX take turns naming the subsequent exercises (here’s the list – that I could remember):
American Hammers
Imperial Walkers
Burpees
Alligator Merkins for 20
Flutter kicks
Freddie Mercurys
X’ & O’s
Half Supermans
Shoulder Taps
Another few I can’t recall…
