Great work by all today!! I about spilled merlot at my own Q????
I appreciate everyone joining me for a 1hr beatdown at the park. The acceleration of the West Side pax is amazing right now. There are now a few new AOs that are really pushing the pax beyond status quo. Currahee posting double digits for pax members to push the cardio and speed training. Circus Maximus and strength conditioning with Kettle Bells, Wednesday there is WTH that is pushing the limits of the PAX with 3 plus miles of bootcamp. Tuesday the good ole Heart Break ridge that will leave you HATING grassy hills…. and if that is not enough, there is always a pax member ready to bike, ruck, run, grab a lunch, happy hour, or bible study.
Thank you for allowing me to lead today.

As always: Call a pax member you have not seen in a while.. it may be what he needed to get through the day.
