Keep your eyes peeled. Next week will be a big one!

Adventurers, we need your help! A creature from deep within the Adirondacks has crept down the Racquette! We need to stop it before it gets further along the river! A simple harpoon doesn’t seem to scratch this thing, so we will need to build something big and heavy enough to crush it or at least pin it down before it moves along the river How to Play: - If your membership started at or before 3/9/2026, you’re already playing! - Complete your workouts and attend sessions - Your Tonnage score at the end of your workout count as your points - Quests come with random events on Week 2 - You have been assigned teams, the teams list will be provided at the end of the first week - One person will receive a secret grand prize worth hundreds of dollars - Your Shapesmiths might be on your team as well, ask them how to get extra points - Additional perks and rules will be added on week 2

I hope you all are doing well. I have spent the last few days meditating at the Monastery and working on a few side quests. While I have enjoyed the peace and quiet, the time has come to clean my tools and set up for my return to the Forge to aid you in your quest. But I wanted to fill you in on something. During my side quests I heard a rumor that a creature from one of the Adirondack lakes has been making its way down the Racquette River. I worry that if it isn't stopped it may make its way all the way to the St. Lawrence and there grow into a beast that could halt shipping lanes, or worse, destroy the power dam. If this is true, then millions could be at risk of being unable to charge their phones and look at AI cat videos. My bet is that it'll be here sometime in March. Who knows, there might be some rewards if we can stop it. Also I recently spoke with an apothecary about some potions and powders that could aid you on your quests. Details to come. Also...Also... Shirts from our Yule Quest... They are VERY late... But, as of today, they are on order!

Our very own @Tyler Hollis will be competing at the Hotlanta cup stacking tournament this weekend. They might broadcast it live at https://www.thewssa.com so if you have time, let's show our support for Tyler this weekend!! If you didn't know, Tyler holds some Guinness records for cup stacking- a sport that tests your dexterity to a max. All of us are on our own quest to become the best we can be. This is Tyler's. Let's see him crush it!!

I'm so excited to introduce the next group of wonderful people who've taken up the courage to get started on their goals of being healthier. Please welcome @Linda LaRue, @Marsha Akins, @Jen Harper, @Mother Sophronia Hofstead, @Christine Daggett, @Jo Ann Zenger, @Terry Lewis, @Donna Hall, and @Kathy Del Guidice to our adventure! The road ahead will be difficult, but you will get stronger with each day and those who fall in love with the journey get the most rewards in the end!
