As pax gathered, I got a confirmation from Nemo that his car thermometer registered in at a blistering 16 degrees this morning. No matter…the pax post and expect a burner. I think they got their money’s worth today…and so the beatdown began.

COT
- ***Nearing the end of our second rotation, we apparently added in another station. During the run portion, some pax chose to perform “seated squats.” This complicated move involves skipping the run portion, with your back facing the bench go into a squat position and then rest your a*s on the bench and hold. Hold this until partner completes his portion of the station and then stand back up. While not as difficult as runing and doing burpees, the bench was cold so I’m sure that was inconvenient.
- Well known diabeties spokesman Walter Brimley is looking for volunteers to perform diabeties blood checks and if needed, insulin shots to participants at the Finish line of the upcoming Krispy Kreme Challenge on Feb 8th.
- Lamp wins todays “Pax that most looks like he would rob a bank” award with his all black outfit and ski mask. Actually…correction…he did have on white tennis shoes.
- I was anticipating a Ricki sighting today, knowing that curls were his favorite exercise when he was in The Big Pen. Last I heard he had headed down to Mexico to drive back a box truck loaded with meth. He called it “a huge score.” Maybe he got hung up with the Policia???
- GoRuck…do it.
