SHHH! Hit the pause on belting BSB and/or Kiiiiiiiid Rock for just a second.

What was the cardinal rule of today’s deck?! Whatever happens at the deck, stays at the deck.

I’m keeping to this rule as best as possible* but for those of you that slept in, missed their alarm or skipped out on the sacred 6:30 am love fest to get dolled up in the finest from Sephora, only to pretend to run some stairs while someone snapped ‘candids’ of you that will later be heavily photoshopped to include 8 feet of snow, forehead sweat and under-the-eye touch-ups (gasps for breath), this teasers for you.  Just the tip, if you will… read more

There was at least one newbie this morning. Kayla pranced up after the workout to thank us for kicking her Monday in the ass, earlier than its ever been kicked before.  She was standing there with her friend Bertha who’s come to the stadium before and recruited Kayla to come.  I obviously asked them if they’d be there on Wednesday and both of them quickly said “YUUUP”.  And I naturally responded with “BOOM, Verbal.” read more

Well alllllrrriight now.. simmer down.  We’re all still coming down from the high of whatever it was that happened at 6:30AM around Castle Island.  There was an epic sunrise, we know that, even if you weren’t there. We’ll skip that and get to the juicy parts in, Wisconsin-notes fashion so you can go on enjoying your holiday.  This morning was a hoot-toot hollerin’ of a good time.  It’s been a while since we’ve all thrown down a Sunrise 6K. read more

This one needs little to no introduction.  Why?! Well first off because we’ve warned you in previous guest blogs to make sure you meet this legend of a human.  If you didn’t take our advice, then you may know her from chasing her down at one of our 3x weekly, #free workouts.  This woAHman is just a straight up badass. She’s simply inspiring.  She sets the bar high for every member of this tribe.  Whether it’s stepping up to baby sit the tribe while we’re out of town, turning her house into a post-workout animal house, or juggling an intense career, a family (of a few hundred if you include all of us) and making it to all the workouts — this woman gives her WHOLE HEART to everything she does.  Today we’re passing over the mic to Erika Anderson.  Her words are powerful… read more

Look, by now you’ve either heard of Shaun Miller or you’ve been slacking on getting to know the member of this free fitness community here in Boston.  Remember the dude that tied a wheel to his waste and dragged it up Summit Ave?! Yeah that is him.  This is his story.  Boston, I present to you, Shaun Miller… read more

“Middle of Summer.  A lot of sweaty bodies…

Spring is good?”

“Nawwww, it’s awful!”

Well whether we like it or not, winter is coming.  While Dana and James B (not related, not married just happen to have the same first letter of their last name and to save time, word count and brain power I grouped them together…anywhooo) are off galavanting in the mountains enjoying Boston’s first official snowfall; the tribe tore apart their homes, ventured deep into their reserves (for semi-appropriate winter gear), only to make it to this mornings Destination Deck, tardy. read more

Where do I even begin.  You probably think I’m gunna rant about Indiana Jones….. it’s an internal struggle but I’m passing on it, at lest for this week.  If you wanna hear me gush over IJ’s just read any of my other 7 blog posts and I’m sure there’s mention of IJ’s.  It’s just so good not too. read more

Hello Boston, do we have your attention?!  (Throwing KANSAS in a blog post title might be the only way we get Dan Foiles to read a blog… but that’s beside the point.)

In this wacky, incredible community that is now in 31 cities across the entire universe; there are thousands of people doing pretty epic shit every day. Sometimes these adventures span across multiple days, sometimes they even span across multiple cities and sometimes they are just too fucking INSANE not to HYPE.  Well we’re highlighting this one in particular because it combines all three of those and we’d love to show our love and support for an awesome dude, doing ridiculously awesome things. read more

Sometime around 5:32 AM on the 21st of September.  At the height of one of my highly technical bounces, yelling: “uhhWAHhahaaahhHAhauh” – I took a look around at the giant wave of silhouetted skulls bobbing up and down.  I immediately stopped.

This is the 5:30 crew…

THIS IS THE FIVE-THIRTY CREW… I wish I could instantly dispense the image in my brain of today’s 5:30 bounce like a polaroid camera, because even this group photo doesn’t do it justice.  We may have had the largest un-hyped Wednesday 5:30 crew of all time. This might not seem like a huge deal but it’s these #thelittlethings that make this Wednesday day different from every other time we show up. read more
