Harder, Better, Faster, Stronger! (IND)

Tomorrow night, the Circle City welcomes Kanye Kardashian, so he was the inspiration for this morning’s bounce…or at least the bands he sampled were.  The set list for this morning was #NP_IND’s cover of the Apex workout, which goes a little somethin’ like this.

The Lyrics:

• Divide the tribe into small groups.
• Each group did an apex circle workout which consisted of two body weight exercises.
• The first tribe member did one push-up and then planked in place, while the tribe members did a push-up waterfall around the circle.
• The reps went up to 5, and then the group took off on an up and over.
• The second apex circle workout consisted of Fast Feet and Burpees, followed by an up and over.
• The third apex circle workout consisted of Hollow Holds and Russian Twists, followed by an up and over.
• The repeat first verse, and continue until the fade out (30ish minutes).

(5:28am Crew – Letting you know they’ve got something to say)

Liner Notes:

• If you noticed the feature image, then you see the winner for The North Face TShirt Design Contest.  Congrats to Kelsey Gergen (KGergs) for submitting this winning entry.  We has some AMAZING submissions and thanks to all who entered a design in the contest.  And, it is worth noting that Bojan’s exact words regarding this design – “Kelsey’s design is in my top 3 of all that have been submitted from ALL tribes”.  Mic Drop.
• Friday’s workout was a great success…we had a great turn out and learned a few things. One of them being that grass is soggy and bug filled in the early morning.  So we will take that into account.  We will be doing the Sunrise 6K this Friday at 6am.  Meet at the North Stairs of the War Memorial.
• In what might be the quickest to receive a Positivity Award since starting NP, Jason Keys earned the SHIT out of the PA today. He’s been #justshowup-ing for a little over a month but he is a force.  His pre/mid/and post workout videos are must see – To quote Laura McCloskey (after we shared last week’s on the Leader FB group) – “That’s going to be my new alarm clock”.  He’s always vocal and encouraging during the workouts, motivating everybody.  And, he is a recruiting machine!!  Very much deserved, my man.  Thanks for helping to raise November Project Indy and everybody who is a part of it (now and in the future) to another level.  A-ROOOO!!!!!

(Me, hoping some of his Jason’s swagger can transfer to me via sweat)

Next week is Race Day!! This means we will be tagging, so bring a blank shirt or two!  I (Shaw) will be traverballing to the NP_NYC, so I won’t be there…so if anybody can help CaseDawg with paint crew and tagging duties we would appreciate that as much as Kanye appreciates himself.

Have a great week!!

I’m gonna let you finish,

• Shaw
