Strong push from an intimate crowd today with the sprint starting gun passing to each pax.
Funhouse didn’t let a gimpy hammy keep him from running the whole workout at modify pace and no recovery. Then he carried the pax through the shoulder tap escalation with an aggressive cadence count. And he capped the workout with a reminder that he wouldn’t be pushing the way he did without the presence of brothers in the Gloom to accompany him. #King
The workout structure and message today revolved around the importance of Recovery, a key element to enabling each of us to push ourselves, to grow, to achieve Acceleration. In all areas of life — physical, emotional and spiritual — fitting recovery into the flow of life is an essential discipline. It’s true for HIMs and true for Ms (thanks to Cohiba for the M reminder!). Put Recovery on your to-do list.
Always an honor to lead. Thanks to Yard Sale for the Q stick.
