Hey 56ers
It is that time of year again. Spring is in the air and before you can kick off summer you got to get prepared. How do you get prepared you ask. Well lucky for you I have put together a little training program. It goes like this. You stretch and drink a lot of water. Go ahead and do that now. I will wait here.
Ok you are all stretched out now and well hydrated. I have taken the liberty of signing you up with a training team. This will keep you motivated so you don’t feel alone on your journey to triumph. The first team meeting is Friday May 14th at the Cornerstone in Decatur IL. This will be an orientation and general meet and greet for you to get to know your new team. Saturday May 15th will be our first full work out at Norb Andy‘s in Springfield. Don’t worry we will start slow and build up gradually. Recovery time is schedule for the next week. You will need to get a lot of rest and replenish your fluids.
The third team meeting is Friday May 21st at Bar Louis in Peoria IL. We will bring in veterans to give you inspirational stories of their trials and tribulations and how they overcame and made it. Saturday May 22nd will be the final team training day before the big event. It will be held at Budde’s in Galesburg IL. By now you will be mentally prepared and ready to take on the world. You can do it!
The training program now calls for you to take the final week off work. Sleep as much as possible. This is easily obtained by staying up very late. This is important in getting your sleep schedule properly aligned. Make sure to double your efforts in your hydration. Load up on complex carbohydrates and begin to shower two to three times a day. Building up on showers is a must. You only will have four days to completely prepare your mind body and spirit before the big event.
Thursday May 28th is finally here and you’re ready to do it. Summer Camp Music Festival and party marathon begins. Four days of non-stop music and fun await you at Chillicothe IL at Three Sister‘s Park. You have come so far in your training and now it is time to show everyone what you are really made of. Like a true champion you are going to show summer who is boss. You are going to take that bull by the horns and ride it all the way from Memorial Day Weekend, strait through 4th of July and on till Labor Day. Who’s The Man Now Dog!!!

Peace Out
