COT

To quote Hasbro, “The human body is capable and exceedingly able to go far beyond what our mind says we can do.” We have all heard this more times than we can count. But how true does this statement resonate in your life? How do you know your true limit if you never push yourself beyond what your mind tells you? This applies to the physical nature, but also the greater span of everything around you. Push yourself in all aspects of your life, and see if you can find your limit.


Moleskin

Huey time strikes again. When planning the workout, I noted we would have 5 minutes of Mary at the end. So… in my mind, we would start the Mary at 6:10. I couldn’t figure out why we had so much extra time towards the end of the workout, so I was adding extra time to the 3ish minute blocks. It wasn’t until 5:59 when someone said, “its almost over”, that I realized my mistake. (I spent the entire time of the Bear Crawls trying to figure out what we were going to do for another 10 minutes before starting Mary)

Also, Burrito (Scott Simmons) was present, which allowed for plenty of mom jokes and a target for Ducktales’ flatulence.

Side Note: other than a man walking the track solo, no other workout groups were present.
