• Great group of guys out at Peak 51 today.  Everyone was pushing themselves hard.  Definitely got our money’s worth today.
• So we had a bit of a run-in with the ladies bootcamp today.  We were minding our own business in the parking lot when one of the ladies yells out, “we are about to do a women’s bootcamp here.”  It wasn’t so much what she said, but how she said it.  The only response I could think of was, “OK”.  Anyway, we moved to another area to give them enough space to do their thing.  I’m sure we can all get along.
• If you are wondering about the name of today’s workout… during our lunge walks today someone we got to talking about music and somehow this led to a discussion of Prince.  I was born in 1971, and would venture to say that any man about my age that claims he wasn’t Prince fan during the Purple Rain days probably isn’t telling the whole truth.  As for me, I loved the album and the movie.
