Heretic Pilates Team

Here's a request and dedication to you, Anonymous (and to the spirit of more fair athletic reporting).

Today's match of the Heretic Beginner's Pilates class versus Sleep was a tough one. The Heretics were far behind with a 3-2 lead from those taken in the grips of sleep at the early 7 AM meeting time. The teacher waited a couple of minutes in hopes that the team might show up in fuller force, but such hopes were in vain.


The partially fielded team was able to put in a good fight in maintaining alignment, breathing, engaging the transverse abdominal muscles, and practicing various repetitive motions. The Bockman Hall Morning Matins Pep Choir helped the Heretical players maintain their concentration on the match before them. The competitors advanced to even bringing together the dreaded 100's exercises and more intense abdominal work than they've seen in their season so far.

Even though Sleep won this week, none of the athletes present fell asleep during the actual class. I think we stand a good chance in our match next week against Motivation.
