Introduction
PREBLAST – LST DARK TOWER – 1/20 – 6:15AM
Lots of horsepower will be circling The Tower tomorrow with three separate workouts being led by @Wide Right @Snots and YHC. Phenomenal double tap opportunity. What a time to be alive.
For LST we will be on the move to stay warm, and mix in plenty of coupon HIIT work. We will stick to paved surfaces. Speaker will be charged.

Cited a post I came across on the Daily Stoic IG:
âYou have to assemble your life yourself, action by action.â – Marcus Aurelius
There is plenty that you could do right now, today, that would make you a better person. There are plenty of small steps that, were you to take them, would help move things forward.
Donât excuse yourself from doing them because the conditions arenât right or because a better opportunity might come along soon. Do what you can, now.
And remember, it all boils down to this simple idea: Think progress, not perfection.
Prayer Requests
Family of Belichick. They are navigating the passing of his mother-in-law (funeral today), and father-in-law with cognitive decline not remembering or understanding what happened. That is a tremendously difficult situation for Belichick’s wife and family to be managing. End with the Lord’s prayer for Belichick and those we hold silently in our hearts.

The “feels like” temperature was -3F so I wanted to mix in a parking garage for one of the thangs. I figured we should do the second thang there so we wouldn’t go from working up a sweat in the garage and then going outside for a long period of time to finish. What I didn’t realize is the amount of traffic that would be flowing into the Municipal Center underground garage from 6:30-6:50am. Kudos to the government workers who are getting to office early!
Super impressed with Hooch and Rico for double-tapping on such a frigid morning.
I’ll be Qing the LST at OP on Tuesday, 1/25, and I’m attempting to EH some neighborhood FNGs. It’s been great to see all the FNGs joining the last couple weeks, given the weather conditions.
Appreciate you all!
