Last year, we introduced a benchmark partner workout called Sugar Rush, after which we held a dessert contest. Well…it’s time to retest Sugar Rush and enjoy some treats afterwards. Join us Saturday, August 25 at 11 AM.

Bring a partner or come as a single and we will match you up. Stick around afterwards and hang with your gym friends and enjoy a well-deserved indulgence. Some people have expressed an interest in making treats for the event. If you want to bring a dessert or beverage to share, please post in comments here by August 21. I will supply donuts, cupcakes, and sangria, too.

Here’s the workout:

Teams of two complete:
50 wall balls 20/14; scaled 10/6
50 calories – ski erg
60 (each) double-unders (120 singles)
60 calories – air bike
