We missed you Marky Mark (YWG)

Guest blog by #nakedDavid. He’s got a little bromance going for Mark and was feeling let down that he’s been standing us up at NP. Time to call him out. Take it away David.

Hi everyone and let me introduce you to Mark. (Mark, say hi to everyone.)

Mark

I first met Mark not through NP but through hockey. He joined our championship-winning law school team that went down to UND tournament last year. Cool dude, I thought. Good hockey player too. read more

The Voyageurs of November Project Winnipeg

Wisconsin notes: Winnipegers are voyageurs, true and through. Mark is the voyageurist of them all. The Great Skate is this Saturday at the forks, at 7:30am. 

This morning saw a fierce canoe race between the North West Company and the Hudson Bay Company as the tribe was split into two groups, and ‘canoed’ up the Assiniboine. The race ended at the junction of the Red and the Assiniboine (The Forks) where Winnipeg found it’s roots as a city back in the late 1700’s. Contrary to historical events, the North West Company came out ahead (it may have been the Hudson Bay Company, the fur from my hat was over my eyes for most of the workout). The two companies then came together for some heated leg-wrestling, in true voyageur style. read more

Do you come from a land down under?

Wisconsin notes: Snow day Aussie-style, PR day. Record your PR results here and also sign the waiver by making an account, you hooligans. 200 by June, too easy mate. Some buffs still available, $5 each. Janet, you beauty. Read the blog in your best Australian accent. 

You beauties, today was a cracker of a workout, for all of you that rocked up, good on ya! For those that couldn’t be fussed, chucked a sickie, maybe you had a bit too much grog last night for ‘straya day, fair dinkum, we’ll get you next time! read more
