Reminder that you have the Q at _______
That’s a text that I love to receive. It’s a sign of a few things:
- Site Q has my digits
- Site Q is making sure that the Q is aware of his upcoming Q
- Site Q is doing his job
- Good boy, Site Q. Good boy
So I received the aforementioned text from Diablo Rojo Site Q, Flex Seal, sometime last week. Thanks for the reminder, because if I hadn’t received that you can bet your sweet backside that I would have been at ER instead. Yeah, I know I go on and on about my love for ER and how’s she’s my Concrete Side Piece. On random weeknights, I meet her inside that creepy vacant house behind the other creepy vacant house and we make sweet love on top of a bear rug that we have stashed in our little private Stabbin’ Cabin. Weird thing is, most times she makes me play the Catcher…..anyhoo, I’ll save the rest of that story for our next 2nd F gathering.
Back to Diablo. Weather: Lightning. All night long too. Which is also what ER expects of me when we’re on top of Ole Smokey (that’s what we call the bear rug).
Thang:
Warmups. Just SSH and Jane Fonda’s. Gotta keep the inner thighs warmed up for tonight’s Rendezvous with Side Piece.
Mosey around a few blocks. This most have seemed fairly pointless to the pax that were following me, but I did have a plan. We were forming a lap. Wound up at the bottom of the hill at W 1st St (near the water tower). The lap was up the hill for 20 merkins/20 LBCs, up Main Ave to W 4th St for 20 LBCs, down W 4th to N Cline for 20 merkins, down to the start for 20 squats. Just like Old ER, take a rep off after each lap. I had already dropped off exactly 4 Lil Sand Babies at that corner. The other rule was that each pax had to carry a LSB through one leg of a lap and leave it to pick it up as you returned to that spot on your next lap, and then carry it for another leg.
That’s the lap, repeat until time is called. Everyone completed 3.25 laps and got in somewhere around 3 miles each.
Solid work men.
Notes:
- My other Side Piece – LSB’s – have been thoroughly neglected for months now. Gave 4 of them over to Flex to share at other AO’s. I hope they get some love.
- If ER found out about LSB’s, she would tear me a new one. She’s a very jealous parking deck. Please don’t share.
- There are several pax that will just about go anywhere for a workout. Add Belding to that list. Dude is all over the place.
- Of course, it’s also summer so hopefully once school starts, he can continue to post everywhere. Which reminds me, if ER is my sidepiece, Belding is somewhat akin to an AO Ho. Me so horny, me love F3 long time.
- Keep it up fella. That’s what ER said.
- Diamond Dave. I wouldn’t call it a Koetter’s, but he’s eligible for some type of 6 Man of the Year Award/Benchwarmer to Starter award. Dude isn’t a Redwood Original, but he’s not far from it. We see him for 5 years at random races, or the one that he directs (Charity Chase) but not always at an AO. Now that we’re growing in the Newton/Conover area, this guy has been posting 5 days a week. We’re glad to have you back in the mix, brother.
- That’s the funny thing about F3. Sometimes it’s not them, it’s us. So we bend a little bit and BAM, there he is. A dang regular.
- Thanks to Flex for starting this AO. I hope to see some more Newtonian’s out there soon. Still got our eyes set on Maiden.
- Newton’s city grid and street names actually makes sense. Hickory, go home you’re drunk.
- Odd, yet most appropriate, fact of the day: some jackass from UNC laid out Hickory’s city grid and street naming system. Is anyone surprised? Probably did it with Crayons and that wide lined construction paper that you get in Kindergarten too.
- Gotta go, ER is on the other line. I think she saw me driving in this am from another direction. Someone cover for me and say I was sick, will ya?
