Embrace your inner child.

I'm only going if they offer the chance to play with a spread-out parachute again.

I must obtain one of those parachutes. Thank you for bringing back one of the few bright times from those dark days.

You'll definitely need more people! Count me in!

Dude, when you do, you are so inviting me over.

From the article:

Quote:

Karin Schmidt has seen that first hand in the Urban Recess fitness classes she runs in Portland. Activities like relay races, tag or even duck-duck-goose all are forms of efficient interval training that allow participants to stay within a target heart rate throughout their entire workout, she said.

All we need now is someone to open up an eatery where old style cafeteria food is served

Who the heck ever found Duck Duck Goose fun? There are plenty of childhood games I might like to play again (a favorite was a version of four-square we played with our feet that was very competitive on our playground) but DDG was the lamest of the lame so far as we were ever concerned. And even though I never won, I always loved dodgeball (I wasn't good at hitting other people but I was very good at not getting hit).

I wonder how much fun Red Rover is with full adult mass involved.

Wheras I hated Red Rover and rather enjoyed DDG.

Oh, I didn't like Red Rover, I'm just trying to imagine how much it would suck with over-competitive 250-pound men throwing themselves at wrist-locked hands.

I'm serious about this - WE MUST MAKE IT A REALITY! I'll chip in for the parachute...
