The day started off well enough. Good number of Pax, the rain was light, temperature was pleasant. I don’t know, it just felt good. Well, at least I thought it did. There was a little chatter during the leg routine. Expected. No one likes to do legs. I get it. I don’t either. But we are only as strong as the legs we stand on so you got to work them once in a while right? When we finished the COP and the leg work we were probably about 18 minutes into the work out. I call partner drags and one of the PAX is like “I am out”. Throws a deuce in the air and takes off running. He just left. No good bye, nothing. I think we were all a little confused. It was like leaving the theatre when that little animated thing is telling you no cell phones or babies crying. So, it is with great disappointment that I announce, that (I believe) I am the first Q to have someone leave mid workout when there wasn’t an emergency. Now, I want to be clear this individual was not hurting and is in good shape from what I can tell. I can tell who was/is hurting though. Me. But, I am just going bury that hurt down real deep and never ever speak of it again. I may need to bump up my weekly visits with Frasier though.
In other news. Run Stopper announced at COT that he is having problems in the bedroom. Soo….. it could be worse I guess. Great work by all.

yes, that was me. Didn’t mean any disrespect to the Q or the pax, just wasn’t feeling it today. To be clear, I was a bit salty after the 200+ single leg squats and then I partnered up with Mermaid for ‘partner drags’. I figured he was going to go for my nipples or something else unsavory so I took pre-emptive action and checked out. I also had an early dr. apt to get to and no ride back home (3.5mi) since Margo is fartsacking this month, or spending his mornings fixing xmas lights, etc.
I didn’t know Mermaid had a reputation for going for another man’s nipples? Yesterday he brought out his fashion line of custom made slim fit hefty bag rain gear and he made us aware of his lack of awareness of suitable AO bathrooms. The man is full of intrigue.
Props to Squid for bucking the status quo and actually doing slow, proper form, exercises, including the split-leg squats. Quality of quantity.
