Building a Flow with your Host Dawgpound
It was a warm Friday morning. The parking deck kept us even warmer. The audio visual team was up and running and streaming Sarah Beth Yoga for the Pax to get a bit of stretching. Trying to win the day by putting the work back into our bodies. Dumbo convinced Pablo to run hills though. That man really loves those hills by the library.
Dumbo even brought his brother out. Even though he is 9 years younger he refers to Dumbo as his ‘Smaller brother’. We already had the name lined up. First job was at a country club. That went to caddy shack. That went to Noonan. Danny Noonan is the kid caddie from the moving that is trying his hardest to get the caddy scholarship. I wanted ‘Na Na Na’, but everyone seemed onboard with Noonan. Just don’t let Emeril ruin it for us. That guy.
It was a special morning. Besides building our flow we ran the stairs at the parking deck for the first time. Pax that couldn’t (Pikachu) stayed down and did more abs.
