Church Run

We hit the Holy Trinity on Peachtree Street this morning: Catholic, Baptist, Episcopal. We even had a Preacher in tow. Church Turn, Amen Corner, Jesus Junction was swarmed this morning by The Urban Assult Company. Folks were quietly and quickly moving from one Holy Ground to another cranking out repetitions of various lower body exercise. There were squats, lunges, step ups, leg presses, leg lifts, Kicks, bridges, calf raises and Plie. In all, we knocked out 700 repetitions. We traversed the earth 3 miles.

This group has been together all summer. We added a few this week. For the folks coming back, take it easy. I know you were working out with us before but, this group is strong and fast. Protect yourself.

It was soupy this morning. It felt like a high in humidiy. We have been promoting water a lot lately. It is very difficult to promote water. Water has so much competition. Here in the south, Coke and Sweet Tea are the only options with lunch. There is water, but most folks put it on a table to be polite.

Water is free. It is everywhere. We can walk into a convienence store with zero pockets and a water bottle and walk out with ice from the fountain. We have discovered that while drinking excessive amounts of water can increase your trips to the bathroom, it will reduce injury, sore ness and weight. It also speeds up revovery. So, when your packing your lunch, back pack, car, luggage and or breifcase, dont forget your water bottle.
