With the California International Marathon coming this Sunday, a number of our members are partaking in the relay or full marathon so today was somewhat awesome … actually everyday is awesome.

The 5:30AM group took off on a short run which ran the last 1.5 miles of the course before finishing at the Capital to pick up the 6:00AM group. That group did the normal run out to the Tower Bridge.

At 6:25AM it was all about paper, rock, scissors for the workout … If you won in the heads up competition you did 10 push ups, sit ups and squats … if you lost then you had to do 15 … lose twice in a row it added 5 reps to each … lose 3 times in a row then it went to 20 … you get the picture.

Good luck to everyone partaking in the marathon weekend and thank you to everyone that will be part of the weekend as a volunteer or cheering along the course.

Don’t forget tomorrow we crash the CIM Health and Fitness Expo at 12:00PM for the Tweet Up… here is the info …

Holding it in… Business as usual

IMG_2907The title of this one doesn’t make any sense, but what was originally going to be the subject matter for this post has been pushed until tomorrow. That’s because we welcomed a new member to the crew yesterday; Courtney, fresh from Las Vegas.

Other than Courtney, it was Business as Usual Wednesday.  The deck of cards made an appearance, each of us drawing a card 10 times to complete the set of reps per the face value of the cards. Brad, as usual, drew the best hand and pull 3 cards for the bonus round.

Oh, and we got a preview of the Christmas Tree lighting at the West Steps!
