6 men gathered in the pouring rain for the #F3FastTwitch gift exchange. Having none of Turkey Leg’s stocking stuffers, we decided to run instead.
The Thang
The three-legged reindeer: Run to from base to intersection of Raintree Lane and 4Mile Creek (brief stop at gravel lot for 10 IWs). Just run the three legs until time runs out…meet back at the intersection at 0605.
Crippling indeed.

In my car at 0510, no one else in the parking lot, a driving rain beating down on the roof of my sporty Corolla, I was praying. First for the rain to stop…then for no one else to show. Neither request was answered, as a few cars pulled in. Instead, it was #ISI. It’s why we do what we do. *Teardrop*
Mermaid exited his Jeep wearing a tailored, slim fit trash bag. That was his weather gear. Had to be no more than the 4 gallon size…it was form fitting…even cut into a stylish V-neck. And apparently he totally insulted Utah, giving A51’s goalie no credit for his svelteness, by offering him a lawn and leaf size bag to protect him from the rain…told him black was slimming. Utah declined, opting for a store bought rain parka instead.
The three legs we ran this morning were brutal, made even more treacherous with the threat of hydroplaning. There was speed to burn out there. Turkey Leg knocked out 8.6. Fault Line got 8 probably. Mermaid, Utah and YHC tallied 7.5, especially after some extra credit miles to track down a wandering Fault Line on 4Mile Creek. Alf totaled about 6.5…but a least two of those were at an all out sprint pace back to the facilities at base…then he really worked those Fast Twitch muscles with a 5 to 7 minutes #hovercraft as he jettisoned wasteful cargo.

Merry Christmas!
