My current fitness challenge/goal has been training for a NASA Power-lifting meet. There are three of us competing in Nov. Coach JamesD, Vanessa and I. The past few weeks we’ve taken to doing a non-lifting team activity. This week was my turn to find something, that was almost a challenge because my past time has pretty much turned into crossfitting or lifting weights in some fashion. I suppose I coulda strapped them into some roller skates.
There was still my archery, but I figured they wouldn’t bite, but I was wrong. Much to my delight they were both interested in it! I was a bit nervous taking them to the range, I generally don’t perform my best in front of others, I didn’t know how much they knew and if I’d be making a fool of myself with them. But what the heck, I’m use to looking like a dork.
So today I got to teach my good friends how to shoot, and man they are naturals! It took me two months to hit any target let alone the one I was aiming at. By the time we left they were out shooting me on the 3D range. So between the three of us there’re some hurting turkeys, couple of coons, bucks, and a bull elk. Oh, and one dead ass “Mother F’ing” rabbit!
What joy! Getting to share one of my favorite activities with a couple of my favorite people; getting to see them take to it so quickly and enjoy it so much was like a big ol’ cherry on top!
Now This Is My Kind Of Team Building.
Super V.
Coach Awesome.
