In the winter, its soccer players. Now, its baseball players that turn to watch me drag 1.5XBW, heave medicine balls, wrestle a sandbag, and haul pounds and pounds of chains. So, while they are waiting for a ball to land in their mitt, i am reliving the Herculean labors (minus the stables). Interesting that one of the questions that people think to ask is, How long have you been doing this? im still chewing on this. i know they dont mean in terms of minutes (though if they knew that i went at it for 2hrs straight, resting only long enough to unclip/unharness, pick up some new obstacle....), but i have no idea of the relevance of their question. i could tell them that i had only just started doing it, or i could tell them that id been doing this for years.... im not convinced that either would have any more meaning to them. The good thing is that they all walk away, back to their game /practice shaking their heads, wishing me well and commenting on how impressive my workout is. That is a good thing, not because im happy with their being impressed (THAT isnt going to do anything for me or my workout), but because it might just inspire one or two of them. LIFT, PULL, PUSH, THROW, COVER GROUND. Bend, straighten, twist. Smile.
