Circle of trust was a thankful discussion on go30 for me and others for last month’s great encouragement and performance!

Well done Pax. Shout out to Kiwi for holding us accountable. This next month is going to rock!


Closed COT with a thankful prayer for ability to exercise and good health closed out with Number – a – ramma, and Name – a – ramma.

Great work and thanks guys for the encouragement and advice on how to properly count with different exercises!

Good thing I checked Slack Sunday night, because I wasn’t planning on leading Wednesday’s workout. Laying in bed last night, I remembered back to my days in Charlotte and thought of some great workouts by these guys. I knew I wanted to do a workout with Coupons and something I hadn’t done in a while – an Exercise – A – Ramma. I worked on calling cadence, and calling out the exercises…Next Exercise, In Position, In Cadence, Exercise.

We found a tennis ball on the field and it made the round with us. Passing back and forth, nailing each other with it for score to be tallied at the end. I think Free Lunch got the highest score by nailing the Q the most. The tennis ball became our mascot and was supportive of our efforts cheering us on as we wept with sweat. By the end of the VQ we were keeping the mascot in play and making the most of it. We even hit the playground for some action on the rings reminiscing of the Olympics.
