Moleskins:

– Thanks to Duvall for giving me a second Qpportunity. And here I thought he would have learned from the first time.

– One FNG today, James, who is supposedly Devo's cousin. But I guess who doesn't want to be Devo's "cousin?" Count me in too. 

– Much to my suprise, most of the Pax ignored the happy hour special and opted for the full price merkins. Go figure.

– Riptide = HOSS

 Tclaps to Stumpjumper on crushing the workout and leading us through most of Mary. You are more than ready for your VQ my friend.

– Funny story on the even smaller world of F3. I moved down from NY in the fall. Earlier this year Landline and I are chatting and he mentions he is taking his family there. I give him a couple suggestions but didn't talk to him about it again until yesterday when he tells me he enjoyed the trip and also bumped into an F3 guy, Ditka, in the city. I had not met Ditka, but we thought it was funny that he bumped into him up in NY. I jumped on a last minute Qpportunity in Davidson today and I walk over and introduce myself to one of the Pax I didn't know. Guess who? Ditka! Great working out with you today

 

I like posting in Davidson, where as Duvall says "the average age is a bit higher, 46…" but always seems 50+ when I post. I guess that's because I drag the average down. And maybe because some guys are out their with their sons, which is pretty awesome on its own. But man, what a motivation and inspiration to see guys crushing workouts no matter what the age. Lord willing, I will follow that lead. RESPECT.
