What's in a name

There's no real workout blog today because we're all resting for the Hana Relay tomorrow.

However, I felt the need to blog because I'm looking over the list of teams running in the relay - there's about 164 teams - and some of the names deserve mentioning.

They include:

- Nature Nymphs
- The Booty Queens
- Mankini
- Happy Asses Again
- Runaway Brides
- Hairy Krishna's Gone Wild
- Drag Racers
- Big Testicicles
- This Shit is Bananas

And of course, one that I totally relate to:

- Running Sucks.

  Also I learned yesterday at the team meeting that I will be running the fifth leg of the race, which is about 3.54 miles. I had picked the second leg of the race but did not know that it had been spoken for ahead of time by the Wonder Twins, Patty and Kehau. My spider senses are tingling, I smell a conspiracy here . . . 

  That's okay, I need the cardio because the last time I ran a mile it sucked. Then again I was trying to actually keep up and run fast. This time I will go sloooooooooooowwww and amuse myself with the people running in costume. 

  I am a bit concerned that our team name, Raw Fitness Maui, isn't too creative however. Of course, from a marketing standpoint you want people to know the name so they know who to look for if they want to join the gym.

 Next time though, maybe we could come up with something more creative, such as:

- RFM Clean Snatchers
- WOD Runners
- Gym Gone Bad
- You So Smooth Luke
- Bumper's Sprinters
- I Stalk Kehau

My favorite of course would be:

- We Hate Cardio 

Get a good night's sleep gang, and see you bright and early tomorrow.
