Gettin’ Weird with a Partner at The Wilderness

The F3LKN website calendar stated Jolly Roger would have the Q (ya know, since he agreed to a Q-trade with YHC months ago), but Jolly determined it'd be hard to clipboard from Denver, so he'll be signing up for a future Q at The Wilderness (again).  While at Stretch Armstrong on Wed, it was determined that Ultraman and The Force would share the Q the next day, as Ultraman is still getting his workouts and 2nd F in despite the full plaster cast on this foot.  So the PB was tweeted with direction to bring a partner.  Someone didn't, b/c we had an odd number (happens 90% of the time anyone plans a partner workout).  But 13 pax arrived looking to share some bodily juices/DNA with a partner and get a good beat-down.  They did, and this is how it went…

The Juicy Moleskine:

Who didn't bring a partner like the PB directed???  Someone dropped the ball, as we had 13.

Speaking of dropping things, somoene dropped what appeared to be (based on the pic Toxic sent in a group text) a used condom in the Wilderness parking lot the day before.  When Toxic didn't show in the gloom, Ultraman caringly reached out via the group text to ensure Toxic was ok today, and that he hoped Toxic had not had a reaction to the latex.  Classic, followed by countless gifs, memes and emojis from the others on the text.  IKEA sounds relieved he missed everything.

Great to have Black Eye Pea with us this AM.  Back in his old 'hood.  Thanks for making the long commute from around the corner, BEP!

Also thrilled when Megaphone quietly joined us in the gloom.  Ok, maybe not so quietly, but awesome to have you back.  Sorry to hear about the injury/prognosis from the doc, but you and Ultraman are proof that you can still come get all 3 Fs and not let life's circumstance shut you down.  We've missed you, brother.

I hope to bring other weird exercises back from my travels as I did from F3 Chattanoogo and F3 Knoxville.  I know how the pax likes to try new things, especially with a partner…

Ultraman commented that he was "shared with Black Bart and Amen today". Ewe.  He also mentioned, "I have more of Black Bart's sweat on me than my own."  Double ewe. I don't know exactly what those two were doing over there, but why wasn't Amen sweating?  Odd #3some 

Admittedly, YHC was somewhat excited when Jolly couldn't make it to Q – it's been a while and Qing these awesome guys is the best way to start any day, best way to relieve stress and yeah – the best way to be humbled by the mumblechatter.  Aye.
