Thanks for the opportunity to lead fire_hazard you nor teddyf3 where there
We were greeted by a grumpy local. Lesson: if you are getting bark at by a dog. It’s your problem… shame on you. Seriously, F’k that guy. He was pissed that he needs to cut his own walk short… I mean he had a ride waiting for him
I haven’t seen the murderhorn in awhile and I always want to PR and I was able to do it again today
We lost Bunker and Roulette due to some nagging injuries after the first subdivision…. Sorry boys.
Gump with the prerun finally got to experience the murderhorn. He may have regretted the prerun, but he got his miles.
Dover (someone correct me if that’s not his name, I will amend the SB) nice to see you out again. He admitted that F3 is harder than the gym, but the gym is warmer…totally agree! Welcome back
Hippie kept me honest all morning. Helps to have someone on your heels. Good luck on your 1/2, you got this!
Roulette is about 6 months from becoming a solid runner… he is in the slow building phase, look out y’all
Bunker and I were partners and I never had some one actually get further away on the handslap merkins… was it something I said?? Heal up brother
Ok, I didn’t Q to help out Fire Hazard. I Q’d because it kept me committed and out of the bed. If you struggle, just put yourself on as a Q. Site leaders won’t care how much you Q at a site or spread the love, grab some Q’s and keep pushing!
