found this in the Codex
It was Shady-level “fun”
Bowser Jr. rolled down the hill. All of us did not, but I wanted to.

MARY: a little yoga instead.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: lots of them in the newsletter and beyond
COT: was held.

Panhandle confided that this was not a moderate workout. Sorry, Not Sorry. You guys freaking crushed it anyway. 45 min on a Saturday makes it moderate–right? You’re welcome

Many of you know I don’t post often on Saturday because it’s concentrica time in my household. My M was working out of town, and the 2.0s slept in. It was great to be among the PAX this Saturday. The work we GET to do in the gloom is a privilege. Remember that when some jackwagon calls 7-2-20s.
