Atlantis 500

If feels like vacationing with ESPN as the halls of the resort are filled with crazed fans, parents and players as Duke and Louisville enter the finals for the Battle 4 Atlantis.
On a more subdued front, for those of us too short for hoops, the gym provided an appropriate battlefield. Our fight for an edge on the pullup bars, the barbells or the dumbbell racks will probably go down with less fanfare… Even though I knocked almost 10 minutes off my last benchmark on this one…
