There is usually one moment of every beatdown that leads to a memorable moment for “naming purposes”. In this case I was ridiculed for asking the PAX to get on “their belly” so we could do some Superman exercises. Ridicule can be a great teacher…never again will I make that …
Selfishly, I wanted the miles and running workouts are pretty easy to Q. In past iterations of the February running challenge I found myself skipping the beatdowns and just running. With an all-time interest (t-claps to the HIM men who got us motivated) maybe the Q’s will find a way …
I do not think I have ever actually taken the time to honor MLK day. Maybe in elementary school before it was holiday. Though back then it could have been mentioned in the context of replacing Robert E. Lee day. Embarrassing to admit, but of course change only comes when …
A solid pax showed up for the first Skinny of 2021. I for one am fat and out of shape and was glad to have the motivation to get the week started well. A quick show of hands demonstrated that Bieber was the only pax present who is participating in …
I was looking to bring some pace to The Skinny today so I figured we’d cover some ground and mix in some different elements. We had fun. Warm Up: Mosey to band stand for a warm up. SSH IC: 25 Grass Grabbers IC: 25 Windmills IC: 25 Peter Parkers IC: …
Weather was holding off so six Pax departed after a quick disclaimer promptly at 0530. Found a dry patch at the edge of the park for warmup SSH; Imperial Walkers; Grass Grabbers and Arm Circles (For & Aft). Mosey to the zoo around flooded parking lot for a modified “short …
Who knew when we posted Monday AM that would be the last Skinny for awhile? Not me. I texted Hawg on Sunday night to make sure we were good still fighting the good fight and I felt reassured. Monday’s beatdown was healthy socially, mentally and physically. We kept our distance. …
Following the funday of all Sundays the pax was light today. This worked well with my plan to primarily run. The RRR challenge is effective in changing the focus and most all in pax were set to GPS mode. We had some nice conversation and feel like we got a …
Got to bed late and was feeling tired and uninspired this am – forced myself to the beatdown because I was the Q today. First person I saw was Revit and I mentioned that I wasn’t feeling it yet – and he reminded me that sometimes getting out of bed …
During coffeeteria after Sweaty Bells, YHC asked Douille “Who has the Q tomorrow for the Skinny?” Good thing YHC asked because Douille responded “You got the Q tomorrow!” With Run Ranger Run in mind, YHC knew he wanted to incorporate the workout with more than 3 miles within 45 minutes. …
