Dice Decide From the Menu Board

Weather Conditions: 38°

It was another glorious morning at Shawshank as 13 strong Pax came together to put in some work and achieve betterment.  Coming off the high from celebrating Cheers’ 6th F3 anniversary on Tuesday, all the Pax were ready for whatever pain and/or chaos could be thrown their way.  3 Pax couldn’t wait to get started and arrived early for some Stride Lite.  As the Board of Pain emerged and was being strategically placed under optimal lighting, YHC thought he made out the sound of cheering and applause from the Pax as their excitement grew.  In the end work was done and men got better, so it was a good day.  As for the workout, here is how it went:

DEVO: Small Action, Big Impact

“When people think about traveling back to the past, they worry about radically changing the present by doing something small, but barely anyone in the present really thinks that they can radically change the future by doing something small today.”
      – Unknown

Focus on doing a positive action today, no matter how big or small.  The world has enough negativity and bad news, and maybe your positive action will result in a big impact for someone(s).  Go be a shining light for others.
