4 HIMS got out there to get in some work before a great day of fellowship ahead. We took a mosey around Folsom stopping at various locations. We did a variety of exercises and had fellowship on past Q’s.
A few stops/ memories remembered were:
- Medicine Woman letting us all know that nur spelled backwards was run
- Montross and the calve raisers
- Huckleberry and the wall work
- Tolkein and the Merkins/ laps
- HIPPA and the crazy he put us through
- King Pin has a heck of a jump shot with the Bobby Hurley’s
Once back to the to the flag we did COT, Volt’s farmers market, and Prayers.
Moleskin
During the workout, we stopped at 4 places were YHC almost made to the decision give up and never to post again.
- During my first post, the PAX took off for a mosey and YHC could not run to the end of the parking lot. Def Leppard came back and did fellowship mosey with YHC and encouraged me throughout the workout. Thank You Def Leppard
- On my third post, YHC was tired, sore and was sick tired of being in pain continuously. For whatever reason, Oompa Loompa stayed with YHC throughout the whole work out. Encouaging and pushing me. Thank You Oompa Loompa
- On my first weekday post, It was raining and freezing cold. There was only three of us that Gumby, the always reliable Volt, and YHC. We were taking a quick mosey and YHC was thinking to myself this is stupid. I stopped halfway 100% sure that I was done with this idiocy. Gumby came back and picked me up but pushed me through the rest of the work out. It finally clicked that it not just a work out. Thank you Gumby.
- Finally about 3 months later, during a Q with a lot running, YHC was about to just give up, walk back to the car and call it a day. But Hacksaw in all his HIMness, was not having any of it. He pushed and pushed me and was not going to let me stop until we were back to the flag. At the time is was not even a third of a mile, but YHC have not run that far continually in over 20 years. It was a big event for YHC. Thank you Hacksaw.
By posting more and more, YHC got involved in other F’s and events. Thank you Sparky for convincing me to do my first 5K. Thank you Huck, and Allen Tate for inviting me to the House of Hims. Thank you Montross for convincing me to get out there for a Speed for Need event. Thank you Bedpan for being a solid stone. You have helped me more than you will ever know.
Thank you to all of Folsom and F3 Gastonia. Happy Thanksgiving!!
