*NMM Thanks for the guys who showed up. During the 12 Days routine, Pizza Man helped me remember what day and exercise it was after each lap since he was fresh. He said he used the lap to recover while I think most of us had to try to recover during the exercise. Broke wore his hat like a Christmas Gnome. Gumby was chasing squirrels all morning. Wirenut likes to attack a burpee when he does one and he likes to call out Pax with bad Merkin form, whomever that might be! Purple Haze decided he would do a small version of a trail run but recovered quickly. Blart and Gavel were mostly quiet or couldn’t get a word in as the mumblechatter was constant even with the KOM at Folsom. The word I had after the workout was during the holiday season with everyone being busy to try to be the one that helps make things better wherever you go. Look for ways to find peace and to help bring peace and joy wherever you can. I need to follow that advice myself!
