CoT
I confessed to PAX that this workout was pretty close to a copy/paste of a workout I did last year around this time. The 12 days of Christmas is always a fun format. The reps add up and I think the run helps break it up a bit. We got 1.85 miles in!
Also reading through my backblast from last year, my CoT message remained the same. Make sure you are recognizing and appreciating your loves ones. In particular, your M’s. My M’s birthday is December 15th. I have always made it a point to celebrate her birthday separately from Christmas. I am sure many of our December brothers can appreciate that. (Shout out Crop Duster…Happy Birthday!) Don’t take people for granted. Celebrate each other.

After being out of the In Person Gloom for the last two weeks, I truly realized how great this group is. I couldn’t have made it through quarantine last week without the virtual option to get together. It felt great to be back in person.
I hope everyone enjoyed the Christmas Music Playlist presented in a variety of genres!
