During lockdown 2.0, Team #GoodgymRedThunder will be hosting a weekly Adventure Film Watch Party- an opportunity to watch these great free-to-air documentaries together! During these uncertain times, sometimes we need a bit of inspiration to get us out the door and finding our own adventures!

A double bill of documentary films involving great group activity initiatives

Showing Up (a film about the November Project) (28 min)

An in-depth into the lives of 8 athletes who collectively tell the story of community, identity, and why it matters to be a part of something transformative. November Project, the Free Fitness Movement that started in Boston that is now taking over the world, is simply the vessel for these stories. Laugh, cry, train, support, repeat. Please view, share, and talk to strangers out there in the world.

Trigger Warning The topic of suicide is addressed in this film.
