Dawn at Southwark

12,000 UK schools are closed today due to the public workers strike. I’m sure at least the kids are happy. Some of our dinner guests flew in from as far as South Africa without any problems so hopefully this is good omen for the remaining international arrivals for our event tonight.
The gang at CF Central London is my new favorite. Every workout feels like a 2 for 1 special. In addition there are a fair number of firebreathers here warming up with handstand walks and a hundred double unders. I’m so glad I found this box! They don’t cut me any slack here… I also learned it pays to get better at double unders to avoid the pain of the goon squad…
