(Flabby Boy): I'm sorry, did you say 0615...as in A.M.? Perhaps you meant 0615 in Rhode Island?
(Phil): No, c'mon mate, it'll be fun...we're all a little foggy that early.
(Rob): At that time, I will not even be conscious. By the way, will this involve swimming by any chance?
(Phil): No, just a little cardio...see you Wednesday.
...flash forward to the morning of Wednesday....and yes, 0615, A.M., in the morning, very early...
(Phil) Rob, meet Mac, he used to be a mountain bike instructor in Colorado, he's going to be in charge of warm up
(Rob) O Good Lord, pls let me see my family again
(Mac) Ok boys, we'll start off with a jog around the oval, then a quick circuit routine: 5 chin ups, 10 knee-ups, 20 push-ups, and 30 squats
(Rob) Once?
(Mac, laughing) No mate, until you can't do anymore (or you puke)
(Rob) Why do I keep signing up for this...
...flash forward to the end of 5 repetitions of the above....
(Mac) Nice work boys. Rob, how'd you go? Rob, Rob has anyone seen him?
(Phil) I think he's over there calling 000 (Australian version of 911)
(Mac) Oh boy.
(Mac) Ok Rob, ready for a little ultimate?
(Rob, gagging) Uh, ya, I actually love ultimate, buy I can't feel my fingers
Long story short, we then proceeded to play a version of ultimate with 5 players that's sort of like knock-out in basketball...except the winner just switches teams so the game never stops.
It was the longest hour of fitness I've done in a long time....but I'm realizing (slowly) that I may actually leave this place in pretty good shape. Because, no matter what the weather, time of day or fitness-level...these guys (and gals) love the outdoors and they love to play sports.
GAME ON!
You are too funny! I couldn't stop laughing! What a great way to start the day! (mine that is)- Heather A.
