Despite the rumors,we did not pay people to #justshowup to our workout this week. Well, maybe we did but there was a catch. Thanks to a generous donor we thought we’d spread some #NP_KC love and handout $5 to each tribe member after this week’s workout. The money was definitely “earned,” with temps in the lower twenties it was the first time we tested the definition of November Project #weatherproof. In fact, the stairs at Liberty Memorial were so icy that Tanya had to alter our workout a bit. She’s pretty bad ass so that wasn’t an issue. After a nice circuit workout consisting of mountain climbers, lunges, squats, jumping jacks, and star jumps we lined up for our weekly group pic. Afterwards we handed $5 to each member and explained the only rule: You had to spend it on a complete stranger without anything in return. Our hope is that this creates a little bit of a ripple effect. Brighten someone’s day. Create a smile. Instigate a positive interaction between two people that may have not otherwise happened. To show our tribe members that a small deed can go a long way.
As 2015 comes to an end, and as we reflect back on the journey from Get Fit KC to November Project KC, we want to say thank you. Thank you Kansas City. Thank you to all who have come out to a workout. Thank you to Liberty Memorial for hosting us. Thank you to all who have supported us, we love you. Without all this our tribe would not have come together and been possible. As for 2016, we can’t wait to see what’s in store. That being said we’re not going to wait for it, like always we’ll be coming at it full speed with our goals set high. HAPPY NEW YEAR!
