Q:  Wexler

 

14 of Harrisburg’s biggest non complainers came out for a slightly chillier than advertised Spring Morning.  As YHC was rewinding from his day last night, his phone kept ‘blowing up’ as the kids say.  Text after text..’We aren’t running tomorrow right?’  ‘How much running are we going to do tomorrow?’  ‘Glad to not run tomorrow!”   I told everyone not to worry as its Kettlebells and no running.  But then I thought, why shouldn’t we run?  Especially as my latest TV addiction has been keeping me up way too late to get up for a prerun.  So we did a little something like this…

• Prayers for Starsky’s youngest daughter as she is getting an MRI on her back
• Continued prayers for the recovery of Banjo Boy’s Father in Law

Strong work out there by everyone!  I think we all got in over 2 miles this morning.  I know that is unusual for a ketllebell workout but it’s good to get that heart rate up while working your muscles.

Huge Tclaps to the Prerunners!  Thankfully for Deadhead, Othello and Clueless were out there this morning.  Solocup must have been waaaay back….

Great Coffeteria this morning!  We discussed everything from the Metaverse, the manliness of tennis players, Escape Rooms combined with Axe Throwing, the competitive drive of grown men, how much effort people will put in to NOT walk their dog, the scars of Gamma’s kids and air hockey, and how much that lady sounds like Darlene!

As always, thank you for encouraging me, pushing me and for the opportunity to lead!
