Athlete of the Week: Bubs

It feels a lot like favoritism to keep highlighting Bubs for stuff, but she just keeps giving me reasons to. It's officially the halfway point of Summer 2022 and Bubs has locked herself an Athlete of the Week award to go along with her laundry list (that phrase doesn't make sense to me) of other accolades.

Starting something from nothing, to me, is the hardest thing to do; the second hardest thing is to follow up something really, really good with something even better. Sometimes there's a temptation to change things up for novelty's sake, and sometimes there's a temptation to rush the process when improvement doesn't come as quickly as before. But since Bubs's Athlete of the Spring she has done the only thing she knows how to do: keep being Bubs.

And find 1 dollar MTV shirts from Dollar Tree.

This week saw Bubs hit a pr on Fran, which was also the second best girl time in Champions Club history, then shift her goal mid-workout on the running and floor press couplet to run the fastest mile of her life during the first round. Sprinting went well for her on Thursday and she led the team of her and Ricky to a 4th place finish on the 80's Workout yesterday - highlighted by a few legless rope climbs.

12 years into the Champions Club and Bubs is just as much of a student as when she was hanging out on the dip bars in the Old Weight Room, and with the momentum she's having right now I'm excited to see how the rest of the Summer is going to turn out for her.
