Any affiliates who decide to do this, might think of taking up a small collection for Joe.

Just thought of this but wanted to clarify...you aren't running with the Olympic bar are you?

I had visions of gym staff running to treadmill I'm on and screaming at me. Heh

Dave Rounsevelle · 03-21-2006, 10:34 AM

Yeah, I had visions of 6 people running around the H/S track and the bars interlocking!!!:biggrin:
Has/does anyone taken a bar to the local track and done a workout like this?? (but, not the running with it part) I've thought one of these days I would take by bar up to the local track and have a workout like this. Can you image the looks you'd get!!!

David Easton · 03-21-2006, 10:52 AM

Ive taken a bar, kettlebells, tyre and other stuff to the local track and had no problem with it...but that was only a couple of us. For the PainStorm it might be a bit different as I am expecting at least 6-8 people

Karl Steadman · 03-21-2006, 12:09 PM

For the record i will be doing it WITH the bar for the 400's...

Doesn't have to be fun to be fun right...:uhoh:

I'll be running up and down a footy pitch for my sprints.

Brand-X has heavy body bags.. we may be able to sub those.. the terror!

Jeff Martin · 03-21-2006, 01:38 PM

I will of course make the "body bags" available for the Mike's at Brand X. Me, I need a lot of work on my running and in the spirit of hitting your weaknesses I'll be doing them as sprints, sans bar. But you guys go ahead.:lol:

Laura Rucker · 03-21-2006, 03:03 PM

*whew* I really was afraid I'd have to carry the bar on the runs.

Gonna try this Big Dog style - modified with girlie weight of 35#.
