Additional Info:
- The 2013 NPC Natural Ohio Bodybuilding Show in Lakewood, OH that out own Flash419 is competing in is the same day. So I am suggestion we do a 2:00 PM start time. The gym is about 15 minutes from the show for those attending. Pre-judging is at 10 AM and the finals are at 5:30 PM so there is time in between to lift and eat. http://www.daveliberman.com/april-2013-poster.pdf
- Also OSIG has a monolift, 3 squat racks, chains, bands, strongman equipment, prowlers, hammer strength, DB's up to 175 lbs, and much more. This gym is sick.

Alrighty guys! I know I asked those unfortunate enough to be trapped in a car with me for 3 hours about this. I wondered if members of the Forvm ever got together to do fun things like canoeing or even charity things like Dayton's mud volleyball for epilepsy? Here's something that I've seen floating around on Facebook and it looks like a helluva good time! Check out the video and let me know if anyone is interested in getting a team together! Looks like there will be one of these 5ks in Logan, Ohio.
There's a Color Run in Columbus (july) and the marathon itself goes right through the Short North which just so happens to be fairly close to Metro Fitness :) So if people were interested in doing this marathon I was thinking the day could go down like this:
First let me explain that this is a 5k and it's not about the marathon part, it's about the FUN part. The race workers throw paint at you (powdered paint) the whole way and you come out looking like a freaking rainbow! Then at the end there is a big block party. At the block part (wait for it) they have a freaking RIB FESTIVAL! Seriously some of the best ribs from around the UNITED STATES set up booths here (complete with their trophies from all over the states). So after we eat ribs we could get "cleaned up" and head to Metro for a lifting session... Like I said... just throwing it out there. check out the link and the videos. I did it last year and it was a really fun time.
Next is the Dayton Mud Volleyball which raises money for epilepsy. It's a really fun time. Could put together an Animal Forvm team and see how we fair at volleyball.
I've done the Color Run and the Dayton Mud Volleyball and both are fun times. Now I haven't done the Foam5K and would freaking kill to! It looks like a blast from your childhood past: water, mud, foam, blow up obstacles, etc :)

Atlas Gym 2 is an awesome gym situated halfway between Chicago and Milwaukee, about 5 miles east of I-94 which includes such implements as: Atlas stones, tires, kettlebells, deadlift platform, multiple power cages, competition bench, prowler, farmer's walk implements, bands, chains, deadlift platform...etc. etc. Bring your own chalk. They also have a smoothie bar.
Official post-gym eats will be at Captain Mike's Beer & Burger (& Whiskey) Bar, near the lake shore. Featuring a couple dozen craft taps (including an O'So tap exclusive to the Mike's locations, O'So being from Kenosha), the best burgers I've ever had outside of Kuma's in Chicago, over 100 whiskeys, mac & cheese of the week, and I've also seen a bloody mary that includes a mozzarella cheese stick (welcome to Wisconsin). Beer fans should also make plans to stop at Woodman's Grocery to stock up on New Glarus, only available in WI, for the cheapest prices available (you will overpay at Cheese Castle/Brat Stop/gas stations/etc.)
Also, if anyone's interested, I'm going to plan on breakfast at Frank's Diner in Kenosha (http://www.franksdinerkenosha.com/), a famous breakfast restaurant featured on the Food Network known for its garbage plates (a shit ton of meat, eggs, and potatoes basically) and the fact that it is built out of an actual boxcar, and after the ABC I plan on heading to Chicago to see Local H at the Metro for their last show with their current drummer.
Please post here if you plan to attend. I'm going to iron out the details with Atlas tonight.

Nice little turnout yesterday. We had some competitors stop by, recounting some of their experiences and getting some pics... I was very happy to see the new faces. We have a group of teens that have started training at the Shop an it was nice to see them there. As I have said, it's never too early to develop a passion...
Thanks to all that came out!!

Same here. I was dreading the 8 hour round trip already. Saturday's rep deadlift day beat the life out of me. I barely managed to roll out of bed yesterday haha.

Thanks guys, I kinda knew that it would be a more "local" thing, *Jerome (Owens) did stop over before leaving town, but everyone else there were locals...lol Talked with a couple Pros at the Mid Atlantic and they were going to stop over, but 2 were heading out together, and the other we knew would be late, and I didn't want to hold anyone up, so I just thought, maybe next time...lol
I did take some time and explained what the ABC's are about and what all we do as far as the Plane Pulls, Donations to charities, Lifts for Autism, Wounded Warrior Project, ect... It was funny, Carol and I both showd up in our tan WW Iconic without knowing the other was wearing it...lol Mentioned our great support system in Ohio and throughout the Legion... Pretty neat!!
I'm sure I will be seeing you guys SOOOOON!!! Thanks to Chase for sending some goodies for them to really get the feel of what it's all about!!!
*Jerome won the Mr. WV at the show... Definitely put in work!!! Great job, J!
