Over the past few months, NP Dallas has been in BEAST MODE! At the beginning of the year, it was declared that in 2018, we will focus on racing and beating our “best self” aka PR (For those of you unfamiliar with that). Tribe members have taken this to heart, and have signed up for various races not only in Texas, but across the US and into Mexico. There are members that are training for their first 5K, first half-marathon, even their first full marathon. They are taking to stadium runs, trails runs, and YOGA… This year the tribe is looking to take close to 30 members to The North Face Endurance Challenge Series in Wisconsin for NP Summit 6. Among them is a lone ranger signed up to do the 50 miler. Why anyone would want to run 50 miles or more is beyond comprehension, yet there are many in this tribe doing it. So, how does this community of badasses prepare for such greatness? They JUST SHOW UP! Check it!
Stairs, sprints, butt kicks, high knees, repeat. 35 minutes of this grueling workout commenced Monday during this week’s stairs. If that wasn’t enough, the tribe was put through a two minute ab inspired “cool down” because love handles are evil. Ha!
Call Me Verbal took place in front of Winspear Opera House Wednesday, and the pain cave was definitely explored. There were jumps being squatted to new heights, burpees for days, mountains being climbed in place, and spiders crawling through a “low bearing” cheer tunnel.
Today was PR Day at Hills for Breakfast with fresh coffee afterwards to help gulp down the repeated hill. Really simple: up and down the hill as many times as you can and as fast as you can in 30 minutes. The air was hot and humid… The hill was nasty and rough… The tribe was fierce, ready and coordinated. TEXAS FOREVER! (Check the Texas inspired shorts).
This melting pot of people from all walks of life, makes having NP in this city PERFECT! The tribe is strong and willing to “fuck yeah” all over the DFW Metroplex. Let the takeover begin!
