One such constant is November Project. For a little over 4 years I’ve shown up to workouts excited for something new. Maybe I met a new person that week, or we were at a new location, or a new workout at an old location, or maybe I finally learned someone’s name! Whatever it was, it was new. Constantly evolving and providing something fresh. I love the community that is November Project. The anti-judgement, we’re glad you’re here, sweaty hug or high five giving community. Where you can run with one person and learn an incredible amount about them in 30-40 minutes or you can split it up and learn a few cool things about 5-10 people. This morning I ran with a few people and asked “What is your favorite flavor of banana?” and also “What is one small thing this past week that you are proud of?”
When I read Abby’s blog (Click here if you haven’t) I couldn’t stop smiling. My favorite relationships are those where even if you haven’t seen the person in years, you pick up like you just had lunch yesterday. November Project offers that opportunity. Whether you show up each and every single week, whenever you can, or after taking a needed personal break, it doesn’t change the fact that we are glad you’re here. That will forever be a constant at our workouts. If you are reading this and you haven’t come in weeks, months, years, and have been thinking about coming but worried about whether it has been too long. Let me say just one thing. #JustShowUp.
My daily dose of something new:
Most people’s banana flavors were based on ripeness, but a few got creative and picked peanut butter banana. Most specific answer came from Amanda who said “within an hour of it just losing the last bit of green.”
Also shout out to Laura for crushing it at work and scoring a massive grant! #BeProud #FuckYeah
(are #’s in a blog pointless, #?)
Musings from M.O.M. – I started asking weird questions to co-leaders from around the world which lead to learning how they think and directed us to deeper conversations. Give it a shot the next time you catch yourself talking about the weather.
Speaking of, anyone else catch the thunderstorm in Santa Monica on Wednesday?
