REAL RECRUITS OF GENIUS!
What a week! The coldest day in five years and we had ten recruits out on the Quarter Deck this morning! Hats off to those recruits (Rick, Pete, Blake, Sean, Aaron, Kim, Dan, Donna, Lexie and Brian) who expressed dedication, devotion and an unwavering desire to stand out in the crowd! In my book you are the “Real Recruits of Genius.” As some would say: Here’s to you Mr. (or Ms.) outdoor freezing cold BOOT CAMP recruit – while everyone you essentially know is tucked away in their cozy warm little bed, snug as the proverbial bug in the rug, you’re getting dressed to go exercise in the freezing cold elements. You’re not distracted by the fact that there’s nice warm church gymnasium within site in which you could easily do your exercises. No, you pick the spot on the asphalt next to the nearly frozen-over pond to do your deal. Some may think you’re courageous while others say you’re crazy, could it be a little of both? You got that right! You, of all people, know that it’s not only about fitness, being strong, cut, lean and drop dead gorgeous – it’s about bragging rights! Big time bragging rights. You live for the moment wherein someone asks you: “How’s your morning going?” You throw your shoulders back and say, “While your sissy, bed-wetting self was in bed – I was at BOOT CAMP.” You long for the moment wherein you come into the break room and you can push all of the donuts to the side and firmly set your bottle of water down on the table and say – “This bottle turned to slush this morning!” While they look at you thinking you’re an idiot for pursuing such a fitness course, you flattered by the thought. You are, Mr. / Ms. BOOT CAMP ice cold weather dude/chick – the Real Recruit of Genius!
