Introduction
Join YHC at the LP for strength training. We’ll move only enough to keep warm, for sure less than a 1/2 mile total. If you’re looking to run, then either EC or hit the OP for the run club.
Bring a coupon cause we’re going to use it, a LOT. HC in the thread below.

Circle of Trust
We’ve had a lot of bad news in the Naperville community over the last couple of weeks with children and neighbors passing away. Please reach out to a friend, family member or someone you’re thinking about but haven’t talked to in awhile and check on their well-being. I have a friend that went through a nasty divorce with his ex-wife a couple of years ago, and he just stopped talking to all of his friends. We’ve tried to reach out to him, but he’s not responding to anyone. As we worry about his well-being, I’m reminded that I need to call/text him today to continue to reach him. Please find someone close to you and make the connection. Prayers for Bjorn and all those battling Covid.

It was 4 degrees with a -10 degree wind chill this morning. Cupcake and I got a couple of miles in for EC and it never really felt cold. I stuck with my commitment to no running and I think that we all managed to stay moving enough to stay warm.
I liked the idea of letting the dice or fate decide how and what we would do today. Lots of coupon work and core exercises, and we should all be feeling it tomorrow. Thanks to Backdraft, Search Party and Cupcake for coming out! Big thanks to Doback for having my 6!
