12 Days of Fitmas - November Project

It’s the most wonderful time of the year. And Portland has been kind enough to stay dry through December giving us picturesque Wednesday mornings. Perfect for running around with friends, doing absurd amounts of burpees and watching the sunrise! Feeling pretty festive some of us started pulling out the ole ugly sweaters to keep us toasty at the wee hours of the morn.

We started off this morning with a dynamic warm up led by Shelby while we waited for our snoozers to roll into the group. Early is on time and on time is late folks. We love you for showing up. Just show up on time.

It’s the holiday season and to make sure everyone feels celebrated we had a Hanukkah bounce in which we all tried to shout back the Adam Sandler song about having a happy Hanukkah while all the new folks were thoroughly confused with what was happening. We brought back a 12 days of Fitmas workout that was a HIT last year with 12 different exercises following along with the song. Holiday tunes were playing from our new speaker which has really amped up our workout game (SHOUT OUT KEELEY BUT A SPEAKER DOESN’T REPLACE YOUR PRESENCE #WEMISSEDYOU).

To burn it out we gathered around the waterfront to hold a wall sit for the duration of a game of telephone in which the phrase “Merry Fitmas ya filthy animals” was passed from one end to the other. Somewhere along the path it was jumbled up and ended up as something completely different but hey we all got to whisper in each others ears while sweat dripped on our neighbors legs.
