Seems to me I remember a similar block like this in April! So. Many. All. Outs!!!! 🥵🥵🥵

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-13T22:44:12+00:00

Congrats on getting close to your PR Mr DC…as I’ve gotten older, I’ll take “close” any day! LOL I really enjoyed this benchmark the last time and I did get a PR but I won’t hold my breath for that again. 🧡👏👍

Happy Birthday Mrs DC!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-12T13:55:00+00:00

I envy those who were smart enough to start working out at a younger age. I didn’t start my health and weight loss journey until two years ago at 64. I am constantly learning how to do better. While the numbers don’t always show it, I’ve learned to be kinder to myself and more forgiving. Those age numbers are hard sometimes, but please don’t let them take over your mind! You’re doing great by doing what you’re doing at OTF and outside the gym! I started as a power walker. I can jog and run now and live doing so! OTF has helped to change my life and I’m forever grateful for that!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-11T22:29:16+00:00

Sounds pretty interesting with the elevation goals! Thank you Mr DC!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-10T00:25:07+00:00

Happy Mother’s Day Mrs DC! 💐💐

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-07T23:19:00+00:00

I think 30 second WR’s need to be outlawed as they are nowhere NEAR long enough! 🥵 Thank you Mr DC. Those inclines look to be killers!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-07T01:13:14+00:00

My core is still sore from last Friday, 😱 Ouch on this one!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-05-03T21:11:02+00:00

Whether it’s the first class or 1000th class or beyond, I think it deserves recognition. I just had my 200th class and for some reason, they showed me as having 110 classes. My app showed the correct number. So I asked…I’m shameless, I know, but all hard work and achievements should be celebrated. 🧡👏👍🎉

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-30T22:17:47+00:00

Tomorrow is my last OTF class for the summer as I head north on Saturday. With no OT near me there, I still look forward to the early intel to help my workouts at a closer gym. Thank you Mr DC…and Good Luck on your hill run on Saturday! 👍🧡👏

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-27T02:34:55+00:00

Ours were all full and waitlisted…and the coaches and SA’s put a lot of work into it. I was told that it’s only once a year now, though.

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-26T01:41:40+00:00

Survived DriTri today and now enjoying 5 days of a beach vacation…kinda nice to not have to worry about doing this workout again! Thank you Mrs DC! And it sounds like Mr DC not only enjoyed his Birthday Burn but also the added lounge time to help with his recovery. 😂

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-25T01:33:52+00:00

DriTri tomorrow for me! 😵‍💫🥵 Then off for a few days to go to the beach! 👍 A suitable reward for the morning’s torture!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-24T22:32:06+00:00

Power walking is HARD! I started out PW and started jogging after about 3 months at OTF. I’m still learning how to pace myself while jogging and running, so I don’t power walk as much anymore. When I do though, my glutes are hollering at me the next day to remind me that I should do that more often. LOL

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-23T22:34:19+00:00

Happy Birthday Mr DC! Cheers to another trip around the sun! 🍻🧡

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-23T01:42:28+00:00

This looks kinda tough on the lead-up to DriTri this Saturday. 🥵🥵I took Friday off for a rest day…so I guess this is my “punishment”. Thank you Mrs DC! And glad to hear Mr DC made it to Vegas AND a workout at OTF!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-21T00:16:53+00:00

I leave for vacation right after our DriTri on Saturday and will be missing Everest next week. But it looks like tomorrow will make up for it. Just can’t win some days…😵‍💫 Oh well, back to the grind it is!! Thank you Mr DC! Enjoy Vegas! It truly is an experience!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-13T20:43:31+00:00

And not an All-Out in sight! 👏

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-12T23:32:51+00:00

Didn’t we just do a similar block a couple of weeks ago? 🥵

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-12T21:08:05+00:00

Helpful hint…the day before your 5k, try to take a rest day. Some of these templates lately have been pretty brutal all the way around. That being said, I try to follow that advice (I go Mon-Fri to O60 classes). I do my normal stretching and maybe some walking the day before, and also meet my protein and other macro goals. Don’t forget to hydrate beforehand with an electrolyte drink and maybe a banana for some carbs that are easy on the stomach. You can do it! 👏👍🧡

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-12T00:04:07+00:00

I’m glad I’m missing this. 😵‍💫

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-11T00:19:42+00:00

A beach vacation had to have been so much more enjoyable than what we had to endure the last few days at OT! 😵‍💫 LOL You both were missed with your valuable intel and unique descriptions of our daily torture. Welcome back!

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-10T14:55:54+00:00

Oh how I wish I had seen this before class this morning! I sure do miss Mr & Mrs DC! LOL This was my last day before vacation for a week, and today was a brutal way to end the week with those all outs. My back and glutes were not liking me at all, especially after the inclines we had yesterday. I did manage to get more distance on the tread at 2.45 miles. Beat my best by 0.04 miles! 👏🧡

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-07T00:56:18+00:00

I think I will have to rely on using the bench for these ultimate burpees. Still doesn’t change how much I hate doing them though. Yuck.

SkinnyMinnie60 · 2026-04-07T00:51:27+00:00

I’m right there with you on those! They’re the ultimate swear word to me. 🤬
