Tabata Time

After an early morning thunderstorm threatened to shut down this morning’s workout, we received the all-clear to commence with the beatdown as planned. I was excited to help Quisenberry celebrate his final bootcamp in his 30s. We all had a great time mumble chatting him up throughout the entire workout. Thankfully, he’s a good sport! …

Ultimate March Madness

Another great turnout today for Ultimate at Snakepit, particularly with 5 2.0’s in attendance.  The Pax were divided into 4 teams for a little round robin tournament style play, and while one team ended up being all young, tall, skinny people, YHC is sure none of that was planned.  There were multiple highlights all around …
