Slim Fast did not want anymore burpees so 5 8 count body builders oyo to finish off

Moleskine:

Slim Fast got in 4 apparently not so relaxing miles prior to the workout (well done) and YHC was wondering if our Tai Chi partners would be there, nope they weren’t I guess they went to find a fern to relax with.  Not much relaxing today, the STARFISH was oh so much fun, YHC was accused of missing the love on Valentine’s Day with the burpees in the middle on round 1, I thought the love was that we didn’t do them on all the rounds.  Gekko was killing the pullups, would have to give him the Larry Bird on that one for sure. Given the weather it was a rare thing to see Slim Fast’s face but he was out there killing it and handing out the encouraging mumble chatter along the way.  The Mouth was uncharacteristically quiet apart from complaining about the cold, be glad you’re not still in Philly (for many reasons).  Pele is really looking sharp out there, you’ve come a long way brother, keep it up, you’re looking great.  Sid it’s personally great to see you out there, definitely notice improvement already, keep it up, this is the hardest part!

A real honour to lead this group today as it is everyday.

Announcements:

Keep the High Tide family in your prayers, they’ve headed back to Alabama on account of HT’s sister in law’s health

Gekko – Thanks for the strong send off brother, helps us keep our day and weekend in focus!
