  2. After this workout I may opt for the dark roast coffee at the Bean to give me a jolt to revive me!
    Should be fun.

  3. Um, we didn't need 3 workouts for tomorrow morning - 1 would have been sufficient - we do have places to be other than The Wellness.

    Good luck in your race (Lorrie too!). You both will be awesome. If your legs are ever having trouble breathing, take your own advice and just keep on going (like Shelley perfectly would). Remember you can rest at the finish line!

  4. Well we tried but somehow between Special K and myself we had a Freudian blank and neither of us printed out this w/out for this a.m. HOWEVER,we all did a combination of Monday's AND Wednesday's workouts, with the added motivation of probably the most profanity of the week.
    There was sweat all over the place...I even got accused(?) of "is Paul paying you to make us slave?" Never fear...we'll do this one on Monday.
    Good luck on the weekend.

  6. Clearly it was meant to be. We did work hard this morning, and had a record turnout of 5 participants! Looking forward to the workout meant for today in the park on Monday.
