(Un) Fortunately Bubba Sparks, Gavel, and Rebar took me up on the old “starting at 0600 but I’ll show up earlier if anyone wants” plan. They suggested 0530 so I couldn’t fartsack and leave them hanging. We took off towards Martha’s then circled back to make sure no one showed up at 0600. We saw JJ a couple times getting an early run in before church. Buckeye and Sargento were also getting a few extra miles in. As my kids would say, Buckeye’s fit was bussin. In other words, his outfit was sharp. He claimed to be “colorblind” but that was clearly not the issue. Sargento was sporting a cup of Joe when he arrived. I don’t think I get runners. Between the pre-run coffee and “bussin fits” I just don’t get it. Maybe that is the point though…..Sometimes I think I could be a runner or that I am a “runner” but then stuff like this happens and it makes me reconsider. At least for now, I am a rucker. Initially this was out of necessity due to injuries, but I really think these are my people. Between the NUOS workouts and Coconut Horse and other rucking AOs , it just feels right………where was I? Back to the BB…..We had 4 ruckers, a bunch of runners, did a variety of routes, then ended with COT.
Q Source starts next week with Cowboy Ethics. Today we had a great discussion that lasted longer than expected. We have quoted Jocko so many times over the last few years. I found a list of “Powerful Jocko Willink Quotes to Motivate Leaders.” We ran through a few of these and pretty much everyone chimed in with something. If you search the above quote on the interwebs and take a look.
Thanks for another great morning-Whoopee
BTW…..has anyone seen Gastone?
