No cash exchanged hands but a co-site Qs’ side deal was made. Gloss took the #F3FastTwitch Q yesterday in exchange for YHC Qing #F3DeathValley today…and two Pax to be named later. Gloss is a fierce negotiator.

With no real strengths to speak of, YHC figured we’d just run some. Guess Spack, Hairball, Radar and Prohibition figured that as well and stayed away. Either that or their respective celebrations of Mexico’s victory over France at the Battle of Pueblo got a little out of hand. #MasCervezasPorFavor

Anyway, we logged about 2.5 miles of hard running this morning. Noteworthy from the grinders:

  • Sussidio, still dressing for the sub-freezing temps of January, woke up the neighbors with his downhill running. Just point ’em and go. YHC partnered with him and TurkeyLeg…by far the two loudest runners in Area51 (excluding Tiger Rag’s heavy breathing intimidation technique).
  • Header and Dolphin spent the whole time in casual conversation. Heard them exchange numbers after the workout.
  • Gloss (a/k/a the straggler above) came in on two wheels at launch. This means he didn’t jettison his cargo at the on-site facility prior to the workouts. That was to the Pax’ detriment on the hill. #DroppingPotions
  • Hops is a backwards running marvel.
  • Geraldo gutted out the running on a bummed ankle. #IceUpSon
  • Taking off running downhill after decline CDDs at the top of the hill has the potential to be dangerous. #Lightheadedness #Disclaimer

Strong running by the DV Pax. There are some fast guys out there. Thanks to SG and SC for the opportunity to lead.

Announcements

  • #F3CSAUP DeathMarch – PreBlast coming soon.
  • BRR – 50 of the 150 teams are from F3. Some slots are still available but see TurkeyLeg now.
  • Brothers Standing in the Gap – remember the Area51 prayer request email

Good crew at DV in the gloom. A couple of new faces to me, including Buttermaker who I partnered with on the hill grinders. Strong work brother. Didn’t get a chance to meet Huggie Bear or Zombie…next time.
Also, Uncle Si, who was certainly WB today, was flying on the backwards run as well.
Header did stop the chit-chat long enough to smoke everyone on the AYG sprint…with TL not far behind.
Was a great morning until the very end when SG pulled up next to me to talk, and, alas, he was shirtless. Come on?! Why?!!!

Hahaha – the true story is I had a head start, but then saw you lightning quick coming my way so my pride told me to keep up… which I did for a bit.

I was under the impression that Seis de Mayo is a ‘Merican holiday in which all businesses and early morning workouts are closed. Looks like it was a good one. See you all at Devil’s Turn tomorrow? Let’s keep this running thing going all week!
