Singles Club (IND)

Welcome to the club all you diehards! The single digits club was bumpin’ today in Indy with awesome showings at both workouts! Indy’s first good snow of the season brought with it our first deep freeze. But that didn’t stop the masses from #justshowup – ing.

7 degrees (that’s -14 in whatever wacky temperature measuring method you Canadians use up there; I mean, what kind of sense does it make having 0 mark freezing?!?! 32: much more logical) was the consensus on a couple phone apps, but we’ll go with 3 degrees (-16 Can-a-dia) because Howard Monroe says so; he’s got that direct weatherman connection. Either way, that’s one WinterWeatherProofSingleDigit Tag earned for everyone at the workouts today! read more

The Results Are In . . . (IND)

The results are in . . . fun was had by all at NP here in Indy this morning (and at a hell of a good price I might add)!

We had plenty of groggy faces still recovering from contentious races, but we made due with heightened energy, hugs upon hugs, and of course free as can be fitness!  Despite the economy, despite the rhetoric, despite the political mortal combat, NP always stands firm based on a solid, unshakable platform of free fitness and a sense of community for the masses!  I think that’s a platform nearly everyone can stand on. read more

Werewolves of Runnin’ (IND)

Aaaaaoooooooohhh!!!  The Tribe* really brought it today!  We got warm by huddling up with a little Warren Zevon inspired Halloween-ish bounce, then hit the steps for some stellar Race Day performances!

We had one of our fastest Tribe members absolutely bring it today by setting his Race Day PR, had some newer but consistent Tribe members really push the envelope (and by envelope I mean co-leader) during the workout, and we had a couple newbies get a taste for what we’re all about!  Plus, the Halloween costumes were a graveyard smash! read more

Decks Out for Harambe (IND)

I feel like I’ve entered Joey-Mac’s mind with all the “pulled our decks out” innuendos I’m tempted to drop in this blog post, but since I’m going to be a fully-sworn in professional in three weeks, I’ll just say that we pulled out our shiny new, clean decks and let all the whole tribe flip them around while getting a nice sweat on for about half an hour.  There.  It’s out of my system. read more

Ain’t Nobody Gon’ Catch Me (IND)

We were all Race Day kings and queens today.  Both sessions absolutely killed it on those stairs and with those burpees (especially the Race Day virgin who did 50 burpees instead of 25)!

There must have been something in the air, because PRs were being set left and right, and everyone was crushing the supportive role.  Awesome teamwork (tribework?).  We had another week of very solid turnout, and we were even graced with some long lost, highly missed familiar faces.  Great seeing you guys! read more

The Triumphant Retun of J-Baby (LAX)

It’s really quite easy to lose sight of the world you used to know when a brand new, freshly constructed and painted world opens up before your very eyes. No, I’m not talking about a new car (though I’m still waiting on that Ferrari that’s going to just fall into my lap one day… I know it is) but I am talking about the glory that is our beloved Hollywood Bowl. We’ve been SO stoked to get back on those stairs, that we just about forgot the world outside of our magical steps of happiness. read more
