Purgatory book club – late Feb meeting
January burpee challenge finish line is near…get ’em in!
Yeti challenge ongoing. If you ordered a patch – $5.
Feb challenge will be cold plunge…sign up on the sheet!!! (Legs, Pythagoras, and Bunsen tested our mettle and came out just fine. I mean, my finger tips are still tingly but the color is normal, so I’m fine. Probably).
COT:
Really good and uplifting COT. I’ll keep it there but I was encouraged by how much we lean on each other. So awesome. Keep it coming, keep coming back, we are not alone.
