This mornings workout was about finding shelter from the wind - very real at below zero wind chill temps in NJ!
The guys who showed up did a series of exercises, some exposed to the wind and others in a more sheltered corner.
We did it together, not alone - then met at Tim Hortons for 'coffeteria' = warm beverages and conversation.

Today's workout lead (we all get to lead) loves to share new words and they were pertinacious and sisu, with brief discussion.
tenacity, grit, perseverance, hardiness were mentioned.
This morning we faced bitter cold and strong wind.
The obstacle was physical but we all face times of challenge and headwinds in life.
Here we find encouragement, friends, insight of others and physical challenges that push everyone to improve 1%.
Consider joining us for some fun (and watch your overall well-being rise in the process!).
