A fine line between encouraging and egging

A fine line between encouraging and egging

I wasn’t sure I was at the right place this morning, when I saw High Tide’s empty jeep in the parking lot.  Surely he wasn’t out with Fletch for a pre-run.  Turns out he was.  Definitely time for him to turn in his “0.0” sticker.  Today was not Meathead-friendly – or MAF-friendly either.  Here’s why:

Moleskin:
Good to have Horse Head’s chatter (he doesn’t mumble – it’s loud enough for all to hear), even if it starts within seconds of the first COP exercise.  Sounded like he thought the cadence was a bit fast.  My apologies to the longer-limbed guys who can’t swing you’re your four-foot arms as fast as I can for SSH.  #hummingbird

Loved the encouragement during the grinders, most notably Witch Doctor, who hollered (#southernism) to Stone Cold every time he was about half way through his run.

I’m sure there was more choice bits of mumblechatter, but can’t recall due to shoddy (#britism) memory and O2 deprivation, so sound off if you heard one.  Also, I’m not sure who won the race by finishing all exercises for the full team first, so comment if you think you won or know who did.

Thanks for scheduling me to Q, Harley.  Not sure how long it’s been, but too long for sure.
