  • Labor Day Running

    Running Makes the Heart Go Faster Had a great morning coaching a special class at 9a. It was a last minute substitution and it was a hero workout — Griff. The group had to run backwards which always trips people up. They did a great job and after seeing them finish, I kinda wished I had…

  • Happy Birthday U.S.A.
