Minnow Party

Lots of people showed up, unfortunately they got me on Q. Original plan was to run with merkins to Riverview elementary school, but with so many pax I decided to stay local. Plan was to run around town with Jack Webb. We began with five merkins and twenty overhead claps. Twelve stops around town increasing the rep counts by one and four respectively. Added some additional exercises (Squats, lunges, calf raises) while we waited for the six to arrive.
Total count: 126 merkins, 504 overhead claps.
we had time for a pairing sprint up the Massey hill.

THE THANG: Muster on the grassy patch in back parking lot where we started, left, and returned a few times.

MARY: Included along the way
ANNOUNCEMENTS: New name of HT workouts Wed/Fri is The Forge! also encouragement to register for Break the Dam run on 1/31, plus 8-blocker on Jan 3rd at Panera
COT: Encouragement for pax to bring some closure to 2025 before starting 2026 by reviewing photos on their phone from Thanksgiving through Christmas period. This practice always grounds me and give me perspective. It especially deflates anxious thinking/feeling about future and various regrets/shame by providing a very real and visible depiction of the true blessings and joy in my life.

Thanks for the invite Miyagi! Carry on with your mission of forging HIM!
