Peepers Pitt--Cold Calisthenics

Peepers’ Pitt--New Crew Askew pt. 6 of 20: “Cold Calisthenics ”

Unbelievable! That’s what it was! Humphrey the Hunchback Hobo could not believe what he was seeing! Boris the Russian solider, unaffected by the cold of the snowy plain, was now RUNNING IN PLACE!

The man was clearly insane! At least that is what Humphrey thought as Boris continued his exercise. Since he was unable to find any work on the empty, snowy plain, the disciplined solider decided to prevent muscle atrophy by working his body! Large flakes of snow pounded into Boris, and the bitter cold grew more evident with the increasing wind. Boris would not be swayed from his work however, as he continued running in place for a space of 30 minutes! Humphrey felt tired FOR him, and would have laid down and gone to sleep after watching the first ten minutes of Boris’ pacing. He could not lay down however, since the snow continued to fall and there was no shelter!

Boris immediately followed his running with some truly extreme pushups! He dropped to the ground hard, crushing the snow under the grip of his huge hands! He then pumped his body up and down, grunting and counting as he went.

“Comrade Humphrey, would you not try some of the work? It is good!”

“Man you is crazy! I’s hungry and it cold and I’s need shelter!” Humphrey then sighed and began walking off to find something…ANYTHING other than Boris on the snowy plain!
