Locations: Harvest Room (Munster), Les Cafe (Highland)
Pax in attendance: Optimus, Bob Villa, Muck, HHH, Lights Out, PacRatx2, and Peyton
First off, thank you for allowing me to host. Givers need people to allow them to give in order to feel good, satisfied, etc…… I’m a giver. A giver, of knowledge, my time, my love, and most of all my friendship. Like many brotherhoods, this is no different and I cherish that I have met all of you. I thank HHH for introducing me to this group. And I also thank the Pax that got HHH into this group.
With that here are the individual goals set by our fellow Pax. The purpose is to support and help them in these goals for 2021.
Bob Villa: Get down to 175 lbs and 15% Body Fat. Drink less coffee. I believe 170 is his ideal body weight per height.
Optimus: Wants to lose about 5-10 lbs. Concentrate on forms and quality of exercises.
PacRat: Get to less than 150 lbs. He feels his best at and around this weight. I believe he called it his take off my shirt at the beach bod.
Peyton: Wants to participate in an IRONMAN event this year. So that’s running, cycling, and swimming. If anyone can participate on any of his specific training days that would be great. I know the struggle will come in trying to fit F3 into this training and goal. I think there was another sticky note eluding to being at 170 libs with the correct nutrition.
HHH: Wants to volunteer at least once a month somewhere in Lake/Porter County. Many opportunities with Andrew’s background in Crown Point community, local schools, local realtors association. Food pantry is something Lights Out mentioned that we should navigate around Covid and see about doing again. I am good friends with Food Bank of Northwest Indiana; Victor A. Garcia, Chief Executive Office. I will get this going again for us and those interested. He is a fellow Mason in my lodge so count on this and keep tabs with HHH. His cell number is 219-776-8204
Segway to Lights Out. F3 goals are post 175 times in 2021. Do 10 unassisted Pull-ups. Get down to 170 lbs and 10% Body Fat. Increase Shoulder Size. Read the Bible daily through Bible App.
Muck: Fix up Camaro. Weekly Ministry Work. Be home by 5pm. Fix Fungus Toenail. Post on Mondays. Look at phone less.
Kato: I’m going to overshoot here. Get down to 220 lbs. Run 5-10 miles a week. Eat better. Get at least 7-8 hours of sleep each night. Get bigger biceps again. Less tattoos this year. Snowboard and skateboard more. And to be in Tough shape which means join Pathfinder.
The Why? What drives us? What drives others? Drink less alcohol and things in excess. These are some of the topics brought up during these breakfasts. Why does F3 feel like a job sometimes. “You can’t get away with anything!” These goals as mentioned before in the breakfast ought to be measurable. I would like to do some dinners this week for those who couldn’t join the breakfasts during the week. I would like to do this quarterly for the updates. Be on the lookout for calendar events to help support our fellow Pax goals for 2021.
Men’s Dinner on 1/23/21 Saturday night with Coors and Scarecrow at Five Guys in Munster.
Coors-He wanted to trim his Marathon time down from previous or most likely speaking of last years PB. He is shooting for 3:30 total time. I’m not sure what the breaks down per mile but I know I can’t do it but I will try to run some more miles with him throughout this year.
He also wanted to log about 1,000 miles in this year. Based on the steps he has been doing I think he should get there unless he doesn’t count non-running activities.
His last goal was do a true Murph. A reminder to what a true Murph is, it is one with a 20 lb. vest on while doing all the exercises. I look forward to doing the Monthly Murphs at Troy although it chaps my hide. It’s my Achilles Heal but I’m going to have to muster through it most likely without a vest.
Scarecrow-Mentioned doing the famous Rim to Rim to Rim in Arizona. I believe this topic is something previously discussed with Mr. Incredible and I looked it up. It is challenging in the fact that the mileage isn’t the crazy part but the dips in elevation and grade mileage is the tough part.
Scarecrow also mentioned goals of cutting down on unprocessed foods, less sugar intake, less coffee. Perhaps again, eating and drinking more healthier for his own health. I pray for your intestinal issues to get better in 2021!
The common theme again is Redwings in Naperville in July. Time to get ready boys! The weight challenge hopefully will continue after the end date and the monies roll over.
