“‘They may take our lives, but they’ll never take our freedom!’
– William Wallace”

What’s a workout without a little chaos, friendly competition, and redemption?
My roommate, training partner, and dearest endorfriend, Jenna, had a vision… A vision of two tribe factions charging each other, screaming blood-curdling screams at the top of their lungs, and clashing into each other in incredible Rock-Paper-Scissor glory.
So we made it a reality.
And what better prize as a victor than to dole out an exercise and number of repetitions of your choice to the slain? But wait, don’t get complacent. Check over your shoulder. Because the slain are back on their feet, gunning you down with vengeance in their eyes.
We had a rad morning here at NPSD. It was really chilly, and sadly none of us took advantage of the educational video that our sister city co-leader, Dick Hortness, created about cold-weather workout gear. Man, we could’ve used it in the 55 degree F temps. F that. Luckily, there were 0 casualties.
You all inspire me. While the leaders still struggled with tired legs after racing a few miles this weekend in SF, you all busted your asses. Despite the initial chaos and some confusion, at the end of the workout, you were all your normal smiles, and it always helps to hug you and hear you say you had a great time.
Stay happy. Stay strong. Stay bright, NPSD.
Love,
E
