Hills In The Fog, Sun Or Snow Are Still Hard As F***

SAN FRANCISCO NOTES:
by Laura

NPSF trekked to the Marina this morning for some stair/hill/vomit action. Gorgeous sunrises are coveted here in San Francisco, but there is also an eerie beauty in running on trails through the fog. Two newbies joined the tribe, along with a Bostonian who took a cab across the country to join us. She made it with seconds to spare (phew). We worked our fucking asses off this morning (well, Laura didn’t) and can gladly say that we earned our weekend. Next week’s lineup: Wednesday at Alamo Square Park, Friday at Twin Peaks (intersection to come), Saturday RECRUITING PAPERS partay. Peace and Love, my peoples. read more

World Takeover Leaps to the Cover of @RunnersWorld Magazine

BOOOOOOOOOOOOM! The cover story for the December issue of Runner’s World is nearly 100% November Project and 400% real! It’s been spotted now in the hands of November Project members in all seven locations and, as of yesterday, at least one airport bookstore near you. As much as this RW tale highlights the Boston experience it’s important to know that we, as a seven-city mob, are growing fast in all the right ways. Getting this type of recap of who we are and what we stand for is huge… giant… no, its… its… it’s unlike anything we’ve seen in our 2 year lifespan. Today’s post captures all seven tribes enjoying the love from Runner’s World and their inside scoop. Open wide and make room for this power-hype burrito of WEDNESDAY love-sauce coming your way! The tribe is seemingly taking over. read more

Our Frist Friday – Ninja Style

It was only right to start Friday hills on November 1st. Even though we are technically “The May Project”, we will continue to ride on the coattails of this Boston tribe to fame, fortune and success. The ninja squad tackled Lombard street which reaches 22%grade and then turns into the most crooked street in the US of A. Due to Halloween festivities, the numbers were low, but the FOMO was high. Best sunrise to date. We will definitely be back again in the near future, and hopefully next time our photographers, Rebecca and Erin, won’t get run over in the road by a 1992 Volvo convertible. Fingers crossed. read more

Happy Birthday To Us!

Two years, boys and girls… Two years of sweaty hugs, high-medium-and-low fives, F-bombs, dirty shirts, soggy butts, scraped shins, and we wouldn’t do it any other way. In last 730 days we managed to debunk the myth of the existence of a “morning person”, attract attention of local, national and international media, make it on the cover of one of the most prominent magazines on the planet, turn couch potatoes into marathoners, awkward shakers into huggers, help folks accomplish and exceed their fitness goals, see our members get engaged during the workout, and throw some serious parties… read more

The Tribe Does The Halloween Thing

EDMONTON NOTES
by Nadim

Some special guests raced with us this morning. Spiderman and Superman came to “run” stairs, but I’m pretty sure that one of them flew, and the other swung his way to the top. Performance Enhancing Costumes? The lumberjacks showed up and made “friends” with the ballerinas and the Egyptian ice dancers. Is there even ice in Egypt? The skeletons, monsters, wolves, dinos and the people-with-lots-of-makeup-on chased everyone who wasn’t costumed as they ran for their lives. Thankfully, an elder norseman protected us all, including the cats, bunnies, wolves, and for some reason, the referees. read more

NOVEMBER PROJECT IS OFFICIALLY IN 7 CITIES! TODAY’S #POWERFUL7

BOSTON NOTES:
by Brogan “BG” Graham

Today we woke up in Boston and did a workout. We call this triple-beast the #RobotMan3. The 5:30AM group was killer and the 6:30AM group was killer-awesome. We had some birthdays (video below) and we had some company. The vibe this morning was different as we felt the fresh faces down in DC training with us and the other 5 tribes preparing to rise and shine. read more

Happy Wednesday Everybody!

EDMONTON NOTES:
by Nadim

Another frosty morning in Edmonton. We worked so hard, our sweat turned the stairs to ice and by the end of the 31 minutes, we were slipping our way down the stairs. We rallied and met new friends in the process. The tribe is not afraid of cold weather. The tribe is not afraid of ice. The tribe is strong. read more

Race Everything!

SAN FRANCISCO NOTES:
by Laura McCloskey



We initiated PR Wednesday (finally) and test ran a course of both sprints, mid distance and agility to push the tribe to their uncomfortable zone. As Brad so eloquently put, “I love it when I work out so hard that I almost throw up… but don’t.” Post vom-sesh we took some year book photos so people can actually start learning each others names. And by “people” we mean “Laura.” She has been calling everyone Sarah for far too long. read more

Positivity Award @Nov_Project

PA PA

The team vibe that we’ve all created at November Project is key for rough workouts, harsh weather, and when we’re feeling like we could have used those extra hours of sleep. We need to continue to boost one another with positive comments, high5’s, and sometimes a simple pat on the back. read more
