Moleskin:

It was a Thursday morning. We were finishing up the Grayskull workout when Nurse Jackie asked if anyone could take over his Q at Rumble for Saturday. I said I probably could. I told him not to announce it since I was hoping it would be a surprise. On Friday, I got a message double checking with me. I was still good to lead. So after getting back late from Basketball last night, it was time to plan out the workout. We would do a lot of legs. It would be enough to make sure they were like jello. But it should help them grow. But morning of, the plans were shattered.

I arrived after a pre-run at Scrooge. I got the surprise I wanted when it seemed many still expected Nurse Jackie to pull up. However it was me who would be Qing, or so I thought. I told a couple of the guys not to worry about having gloves as we would not need them. Wee Man was in earshot. Shortly after this he claimed to have been asked by Nurse Jackie to be the Q. Lacking evidence to refute this claim since he said he spoke with him last night, it was now going to have to be a Co-Q. I wondered why Nurse Jackie would do this. But I was tired from a late night and pre-run, so I did not feel up to getting proof at the moment. So we aimed to do a Co-Q. I would have to modify, but it would be fine. The other PAX seemed to get a kick out of the idea of telling multiple people to be your fill in Q and then have them figure out how to work things out. I was not as amused as they were. But what is done is done. Then I was asked to do the warmup by Wee Man. Well, the warmup was geared entirely towards doing a leg workout and was not conducive to a Co-Q, so I could not really lead the warmup if I was not leading the whole time. Seeing this, Yogi decided to take over the warmup. We did the classic arm lactic acid build up exercises. Then we had Wee Man step in and do some Merkins and something else. Then it was my turn. With 7 of 30 minutes gone, we began with a modified version of the workout. It seemed to go well. There was reluctance to do the Step Ups and then the Box Jumps. The Box Jumps were definitely interesting. We had a hiccup where someone, definitely not the Q, tried to do one of the Box Jumps and missed ending up hitting their hands on the concrete. Wee Man seemed to think this justified his warning that this was stupid. But we kept on.

We ended up behind the school when it swapped over to Wee Man’s time. He seemed to think we would end up back at the starting parking when my time was over, but since there was little point in doing so and I had no idea what he wanted to do we stopped my portion there. So Wee Man sent us over to pick up some rocks and then head back to the starting parking lot. Now let me tell you, those Imams were not fun. Wee Man enjoyed them and wanted us to go quickly. But he found us demoralized when we found out there was no rest. It was as many Thrusters as possible in a minute and then at the beep 5 Burpees and repeat. Well normally there would be rest. But there was no rest here. Thus we soon found ourselves lucky to get 5 to 10 Thrusters in a round. Thus Wee Man called it off before anyone made it to 100. We did make 10 minutes out of it. Then he gave out the incentive for the chalk line drawing: whiskey. Whoever made it the furthest would be given the whiskey as the prize. I was not interested, so as soon as my legs ached, I stopped. But Bishop and Yogi went most of the way down the road before Wee Man called things so we could head back. Yogi was the winner in the end.

And that is how we got a Tri-Q. Well, that’s all folks. Have a blessed day!
