No Substitute For A Legend

No Substitute For A Legend

Moleskin

Spackler was scheduled to Q this morning.  And while he did work out, he was afraid of cheating the PAX by Qing while still suffering the effects of GoldenMcNuts after his V.  So he asked me and I reluctantly agreed.  YHC did his best but there is No Substitute for a Legend.

Philmont walked up at the same time as Long Distance talking about drag racing.  Apparently they were at a red light next to each other on the way to the workout…each of them inching up to get the advantage when the light turned green.  Little did they know it was a foreshadowing of things to come.  They paired for the sprint intervals and pushed each other to the max each time.  Nice work gentlemen!

Zippity groaned in the pre-workout gathering when he heard YHC was on Q. Said something about being at #F3FastTwitch all week, with all the running Hops had him doing at #F3SkunkWorks on Tuesday and with Radar’s suicides at #F3DeathValley yesterday.  Sorry for the sprint intervals Zip…#F3FastTwitch x 3 for you this week…and you didn’t even attend #F3FastTwitch.

A couple of noteworthy items during the sprint intervals:

• Zip asked “What do we do while we wait for other groups to finish sprints?” YHC answered, “Catch your breath.” That became apparent pretty quickly…but YHC likes Zip’s enthusiasm.
• Two from Philmont: “I’m the man to beat” and “I’m working on my time for the NFL combine.”  Seems a free agency contract is in this man’s future…that or stand-up comedy.  Love it brother!

YHC called the last exercise Dancing With The Stars because YHC knew it would be made fun of in the demonstration phase…might as well just acknowledge it.  However, the squatting on one leg while performing a four point (front, side, straight back & wrap around back) toe touch produces a crazy burn in the quads.  Even Philmont’s rendition of the Hokey Pokey didn’t help the pain.

Long Distance sprinted past all of us in the mosey home then yelled “Jailbreak!” Only Spackler gave chase and beat him to the cars.

Thanks to Spackler and Crabcake for the opportunity to lead the fine men of #F3RebelYell.
