FRIDAY PARKING & Transportation Info for Summit 5.0

Q: WHERE DO I PARK? A: OPEN this Google Map

HOW DO I GET TO THE STADIUM? HOW DO I GET AROUND?

If you find yourself asking these questions, let’s thank our local transportation guru Ari Ofsevit for compiling the following info.  Read as much or as little as you want (it gets really fucking detailed down at the bottom, and in the middle, and pretty much everywhere) but definitely read the part about parking for the Friday morning workout at Harvard.  And give yourself LOTS of extra time to get to the stadium.   read more

Changing Gears

Hey Everyone!!!

Kyle here and I figured I would update everyone on why I’m not going to be at summit this next weekend.

Right now I’m in North Sydney, Nova Scotia. I am a week into my cross Canada cycling trip across the country and there wasn’t an opportunity to stop this without throwing off my whole course. read more

The Sounds of #NPSUMMIT Weekend

This email serves as a pre-thanks to the two DJ’s who are going to be holding it down for the NPSUMMIT. Number one is local legend Laura Ingles of Boston. Number two is new-kid-on-the-block and Co-Leader of November Project Virginia Beach Barry Clark. Laura will host the rise & shine beatdown inside the Harvard Stadium that will open the weekend early Friday morning and Barry will bring down the house at The Lawn On D Street on Saturday night, which will close the weekend. If you’re thinking, “I don’t know much about all of this that you speak of, this “N..P.. Summit” and I really wish I could click here and find out more details.” I hope that you go back and click there. If you already know what’s up, continue onward/below. read more

This is the blog post you’ve been looking forward to since the announcement was made that the 5th annual November Project Summit #NP5UMMIT is going down in Boston, MA. The weekend will start off with the stair workout at the iconic Harvard Stadium, followed by some serious trail racing at the North Face Endurance Challengeat Wachusett Mountain, and will commence with the most epic social of the year! I know, the word “epic” is overused in describing anything from fun to exciting, but if you’ve been NPSUMMIT4.0 you know what I’m talking about (even if you haven’t been you know what I’m talking about.) read more

The Great Canadian Burpee Chump (YYZ)

As we explained at the workout this morning, we wanted to give Montreal the warmest welcome possible to the November Project family. So naturally, we asked them if they wanted to do a Sebastian with us. Seven minutes, as many reps as possible of burpees. What could be warmer than that?

From there, things escalated quickly. If we were doing it, it would be cool to get other tribes involved. Let’s get the other Canadian tribes to do a Sebastian too. Wait, let’s make it a competition. And from there, ‘The Great Canadian Burpee Chump’ was born. Toronto, Montreal, Calgary, Kelowna, Victoria and Vancouver all going tete-a-tete, to see who could score the highest average number of burpees (Winnipeg also did a Sebastian this morning in support).  We also decided to recognise the highest single number of burpees, and thus crown the Burpee Chump. read more

Kelowna from a far (KEL)

What Up Keloooowwwwnnns?

My name is Nadim and I’m one of the leaders of November Project Canada (Edmonton). I consider Roz one of my closest friends for the following reasons: I have met her in-person twice; she sometimes responds to my texts; we are Facebook friends.

Over here, we write a blog after each workout. Sometimes we talk about the workout we did that day, sometimes we  vlog, and sometimes they’re complete nonsense. There’s a good chance that only 2 people watch or read these, but we do them anyways, because we’re old school. I’ve never been to Kelowna because my bank doesn’t have your currency and I don’t speak your language. I probably wouldn’t get past customs anyways. So for this blog, I can only write about what I know of you all from the socials… So here we go… read more
