Get up, get on up…

Event Date

Aug 16, 2022


7 Pax convened at a grand event known as Gladiator for a full body workout today. Check out the #bb here:

 

YHC arrived as the Pax were assembling. Some chose not to attend due to the wet ground, but these mighty Pax didn’t mind. Those who didn’t attend would definitely miss out.

 

As we began, Bel-Air was startled by the voice of James Brown as the music filled the air (he wasn’t quite ready for that). Nothing like some JB to start your morning!

 

Let the festivities begin…

Circle of Trust/Prayer

 

Moleskin:

 

Bel-Air told me he had shed 40 lbs. Proud of him for his commitment and for consistently giving his all. He is a great example for others!

 

Flo was there before anyone and ran from his house. The workout looked too easy for him. I may need to up my game.

 

Kosar…well, we all know he could run circles around all of us at any post. Dude is like the energizer bunny.

 

POS kept up and led the Pax the whole way through. He always works hard. Perhaps he can Q again soon?

 

Subprime enjoyed feeding his biceps some food this morning. They were hungry. He couldn’t remember his age during namarama, but when you get to be my age, it’s all relative… couldn’t find Subprime in the online system, but he was present and accounted for.

 

Deadhead pushed hard today and brought the heat. Great job!

 

I am better because of starting my morning out with the fine gents. Thank you for letting me lead. Until next time…
