How soon is too soon at Purgatory

QIC: BAM

Date: 10/08/2022

PAX: Bluto (WB), Green Acres (WD), Sgt Schultz, Wobegon, TPC, High Cotton, Undertow, Boomerang, Splash, D-Day, Singing Cowboy

YHC has been around this F3 for a minute, very thankful for that.  One benefit is the depth of previous Q’s to draw ideas from.  Usually if you go far enough back, the odds of attendees either being at that workout or remembering a called exercise are usually in the Q’s favor.  Now that YHC has trained for, but never run an ultramarathon, doing some running seemed like a fun use of the past 6 months of effort.

Pax rolled in right up until 0700, based on the average age of attendees, it’s impressive they remembered how to get to the AO.  Knowing they have to keep a regular med schedule at their age, we got started on time!

NMM

  • D-Day talks alot, assuming that’s common in his country, and they must call streets, driveways up there as well
  • Pax were generally not a fan of the Q’s new desire to run
  • Singing Cowboy attempted to “borrow” Green Acres’ preferred NC rock, but other pax stepped in to assist in the error
  • Pax ran a little older today, only 2 “Ayes” and no “Hates” but you wouldn’t have known it by the effort, just the grumbling
  • Site Q was missed, but pax worked well in his absence

    Well, American English is tricky about that. I mean, we park in driveways and drive on parkways. 🤷‍♂️ And D-Day taught us that those birds are CANADA geese. The more you know…. But thanks for saving my favorite rock for me! You were insane to use my rock’s support rock. It’s huge! Strong work and enjoyable workout! 👏. Thanks for leading
