Winter break is here, which means my numbers are going to change a bit. I got myself a SkiErg for my birthday/work anniversary, and just tried it for a few minutes. It is going to kick my butt, but for now it'll be my rowing warmup most likely.

My goal will remain 3-4 workouts per week, otherwise I will end up not meeting my goals which leads to frustration and more missed workouts.

My goal for this week in particular is hitting the 100k for the challenge.

Hope everyone will have a great end of the year and enjoy the holidays.
Wim - you're close to that 100K milestone! Keep going!

What's not to love about a good story?! AC Golden is a small batch brewery - and let's just say a few sample runs get some creative labeling. And the Christmas 2021 label is very shareworthy because it tells The Legend of Brewdolph. It's a product that is not for sale, so you won't see in retail anywhere, but it is quite real. From the label:
I don't drink beer, but I was curious if it will be available at our new year's party?

Holy Toledo, Brewdolph sure gets around. Looks like he had a little warm-up Brewdolph Bash with the Toledo Zoo in November, and it appears that the libations available were suited to a variety of palates.

However, a potency warning may be in order, I suspect that drink might not be a book you can judge by its cover.

I know, I know, Christmas hasn't even happened, yet. But, planning ahead is going to be one of my (many) NY resolutions! Perhaps, for our annual Ten Forward Bash on NYE, we can simply order a virtual keg of Brewdolph's Brew ... I'll bring the virtual grazing platter:
