FRIDAY MARCH 20TH 2020
COVE HIBERNATION HYSTERICS
We never thought we’d be laughing as hard during a time like this like as we did today. From Alea’s “hello, FaceBook, can anyone hear me?!” to Maria’s Happy Hour Turkish Get Up Challenge (and Josh’s 12oz prescription for the ladies and 16oz for the boys), finding lightness at at time like this is a real gift. Thank you. And keep those kinds of gifts coming!
As you saw today, we are eliminating the daily meet-up workouts from the schedule. Following Gov. Hogan’s announcement and mandate that groups stay to less than 10, it’s just the right thing to do (even if we have less than ten). We all want to play our part in solving this crisis!
However, we know that many of you are seeking relief from isolation and stress by going on runs, hikes or bike rides — and that is just AWESOME. Being outside with a friend or family member is chicken soup for the soul! We know we are a bit of schlep from Columbia, but we have a few kayaks and stand up paddle boards for when the weather gets warmer (hopefully in a week or so). Again, we are NOT looking to substitute a group workout with a group kayak outing per se — rather we are offering you a bit of nature, on the water and clearly MANY feet apart in the coming weeks. We have three adult sized kayaks and 2 junior ones (which comfortably most people 5’5″ or under). If there is interest we can create a sign-up sheet to organize times. Ping me directly at marina@cove-fitness.come if there is interest and we’ll get the boats in the water soon!
