Lenoir held its own version of nearby festivals that honor aliens, Bigfoot, ghosts, or other rare sightings, as Babyface, Friar, and Hanger were the only pax to brave a cold gloom. Babyface has moved on to Granite Falls, Hanger has given his life over to the soccer gods, and Friar is busy busting through his T-shirts with all his gainz.
The thang:
Stretch on your own.
Mosey to end of the little loop on the greenway. Do first rep of our Rocky Challenge:
*20 Merkins
*20 WWII situps
*20 lunges (there aren’t any steps here)
Continue mosey out of greenway, through Barrington, and back to AO on Pennel. Stop every 5-8 minutes for Rocky reps.
Total run, 2.6 miles. 450 calories. 100 sit-ups, merkins, and lunges.
The Word:
Be like Hanger’s soccer player. “I don’t know what’s happening, but I’m having a great time!”
Moleskine:
- We admire Double-Bogey’s commitment to whatever he starts.
- Praying for Babyface’s family following the death of his incredible grandmother. May we all have a eulogy that makes other people jealous of our lives.
- Friars Biceps are growing so fast, nerves are being cut off.
- Babyface may be renamed “Loogie.”
- Appropriately, Friar provided a shining light to follow. Babyface was dimmed, and Hanger was pure darkness.
- Cool to look up and see all stars, no clouds
- Granite Falls men love to ruck. Sounds kinda long and maybe boring. But they stop for beers on the way sometimes. I can get behind that.
- Lenoir’s soccer program is clearly inferior to Granite Falls, but is it worth staying at the field until 8:30 at night? (Maybe. Is beer allowed on the sidelines?)
- Really cool to have Babyface make the (exactly) 18 minute drive. Even if he’s just a little bit more smug now, with the scent of Hickory filling his lungs. Or is that him enjoying the smell of his farts?
