Rundown:
Kylie Minogue must have been talking about Beyonce’s “Love on Top” (don’t worry about the timeline there) because like she says, I just can’t get you outta my head, Love on Top. That was one upbeat beatdown; who knew it was possible to hit those octaves???!!!
Very, very solid workout this morning to say the least. Very, very solid 5:28 showing as well. That group easily took the cake this morning, which I can confidently say even without the Colleen Count (though my Wednesday still won’t feel complete without it).
Workout:
No burpees, but man did those wheelbarrows sting.
Up and over gone awry. YOU! had to run up to the top, then YOU! had to leapfrog/broadjump across the east platform. From there YOUR! ass ran down the south stairs and did some tick-tocks (aka ass-wipes) with a partner. Then YOU! headed back up to do partner wheelbarrows across the west platform and finished down on the north landing with YOUR! Supermans. YOU! guys did awesome, especially with that planking, pushup…ing frenzy at the end.

Notes:
Lots of notes this week:
- SHIRTS: NP tribes worldwide are getting free matching The North Face (TNF) shirts . . . only they won’t be matching once each city puts its own flavor on the front. We had the option of tagging the shirts with our local tag or getting some city-centric design screenprinted on there. We opted for the latter, so we’re having a contest to decide which logo tribes(wo)men prefer.
- RE Contest:
- Shirts are shortsleeve grey with TNF on one sleeve, NP on the other. There’s a block of writing on the inside of the shirt so you can show it off when you raise up the shirt to wipe sweat off. See it on our FB. The writing will be black.
- Post your design via THIS NORTH FACE PORTAL by Monday, Aug 7 at 8p. Please read all size and design specifications which are listed on this page as well.
- Shirts will be handed out at an undisclosed future workout, so #justshowup.
- We’ve requested a good assortment of sizes, but nobody is promised their exact size. I’d say sorry, but it’s a free shirt given out at a free workout….
- RE Contest:
- WISCO TNF ENDURANCE CHALLENGE: check out the link on our FB page and say if you’re going, not, or a maybe by next Wednesday, Aug 10. We need to get rolling on participants so we can build teams and make travel and overnight arrangements.
- SISTER CITY: Over the next couple weeks we will continue to announce that San Fran is our Sister Tribe. We’re planning on sending them a bulk shipment of sort of ‘pen pal’ letters from Indy NP folks, so write up something about yourself, your city, or whatever you think a person in San Fran might be interested in (or ignore that and write whatever kind or informative or motivational thing you want). Bring your hand written letters or whatever trinket or design you come up with to the next couple workouts so we can send them off here shortly.
- NEWBIES: Keep up the awesome recruiting game, guys. Newbies galore the last few weeks and even months really. Loving the FB blog posts and praise for NP_IND. You guys all rock my socks (and that’s saying something b/c I just changed into my finest pair of socks).
- ANNE: Thanks a ton for the pictures today. I was having such a good time ripping on Shaw about the camera we attempt to use, but now it’s turned on me and has taken more kindly to him. You saved our asses.
-Anne absolutely floors people-
In a currently rough and rigid sounding world, make an effort to do something/take some time for someone else. They’ll appreciate it, and you’ll feel rewarded. Have a spectacular week!
