Introduction
This workout was called Running when your tired.
Goal was to bring the men to the brink of physical exhaustion so there mind could tell their bodies who is boss.
My long term strategy is to get everyone who goes to run club, better at running and therefore healthier.

Paula Dean came out strong with a burst of energy. I couldn’t catch this guy at all and trust me I tried. He is a beast of a man if I ever saw one, perhaps half robot but I am not sure. Roach Coach did well today. I have seen steady improvements in his running lately. Twilight was fast as ever. That guy has a max speed that rivals Usain Bolt.
Afterwards rounded everyone up and told them to do it again starting at 10 and going down.
Cataracts did great he had the heart of a lion. I saw Blues Clues, Belay, Cap, Leuben, Motown, all push themselves hard. Bob Ross persevered and expanded his VO2 max.
Overall very impressed with these guys. I say they completed the evolution.

I was thinking about what I could say to a group of guys who are wiser than myself and I feel like instead of preaching to you the best things I could do is challenge you. I challenge you to step out of your comfort zone in other parts of your life. For example you could talk to or try and help a coworker who seems overwhelmed. Or you could show gratitude to someone you love or someone who brings you joy. These are just examples but you all know what you could do to help others if you search your hearts.
Search your hearts men. Find something that is borderline too much effort or too much money. This is what you need to do. Get out of your comfort zone, get uncomfortable and then make the uncomfortable comfortable. In order to grow to the next step of achievement.
Very thankful and proud of this group of guys. They made me feel at home for my VQ. It is a honor to lead these guys if only for one workout.
