Ollie Ollie Octopus (or the British Bulldog like some might call it) was the setting for this week’s NP Montréal workout. Since I was ‘it’ and had the generous task to tag out fellow tribe members, it is only normal I took duty to write this week’s blog post. We really had a lot of fun this morning. It felt like we were back in grade school gym class trying to tag our friends in the schoolyard. However, 15 pushups were the major punishment. Everyone had his or her own technique to try and dodge the tag but we ultimately found a way to catch you all. Boom! You better bring spikes next time Sulay!!!
Parc Champs-de-Mars has become a nice alternative playground for our weekly activities. The large steps, wide patches of grass and clear spaces allow the group to do silly things while getting a kick-ass workout. Too bad many tribe members missed out on our games today. They’ll have to catch next week’s workout when we head back to the hill on Place Jacques-Cartier. Champ-de-Mars will certainly be used quite often in the weeks to come.
The more I get to know this tribe, the more I feel like it is a real extended family. Each tribe member brings to the table personality, humour, fitness, and sarcasm… while one always shows up late (i.e., Nadine). She still calls me 10 minutes into each workout for location… we love her ❤. For future reference, we started writing out in chalk on the sidewalk by the bounce where the morning’s workout is going to be. So Nadine, you could always find us now 🙂
Our tribe is strong. Long live NP MTL!!!
One last super important thing to mention: There is a blog post from an Anonymous NP’er done earlier this morning regarding the culture of November Project and what we as a Movement stand for. Please take a few minutes today to read it and ask yourself how you feel about our “hug first” culture and how we can be more cognizant of how that affects others.
Announcement:
- SAVE THE DATE: NP social event is NOW ON AUGUST 20TH (previously the 17th). We’re going and grabbing a bite and a few drinks as a tribe. Bonding and fun are mandatory. More details to come next week.
