Just Me and my Block

It’s Friday night I’m here at the Rusty Rabbit drinking all by myself once again. This is the second week that I was the only one who showed for 2nd F. I’m hitting up Slack and GroupMe saw that err body is standing me up and staying home. While scanning through all the mumblechatter I see that Tiger has posted that he needs someone to pickup his Q tomorrow so I said what the heck I’ll take it. I’ve been working on a few different things and I’m wanting to try them out so I’ll do it. It’s now Sat. morning it’s pouring rain and I’m having a hard time getting motivated to do anything let alone go workout but it’s what we do so off I go.  As I pull up I noticed no cars in the parking lot and I think hell I wouldn’t be running no EC today either it’s cold and raining cats and dogs out here I can’t blame anyone for not getting in a little extra in out here in this crap. Then a few minutes later my phone is buzzing that means it’s 0659 1 min. till and still no one, nothing, nada dang soul. I’ll give it a few more min. as I’m thinking maybe a few of these guys realize that I’ve now got the Q and I’m pretty much running @ 2 -3 min. late every morning. Clock now strikes 0705 still no one. Now I’m thinking WTF maybe it’s just me who else gets stood up for drinks and a workout within the same 24 hours. Well be danged if I’m going to miss out on a good time just because nobody wants to show. Just like last night I’m flying solo. I grab a block out of the ol’ F150 and get to work. I hit up a circuit of 5 rounds 20 reps each as follows.

Thrusters

Curls

OH Extensions

Good Mornings

High Pulls

I ended each round with a lap around the track. Pretty JV so far I know. At this point I’m really ready to throw in the towel and just head out for breakfast a little early. I’m finishing the last lap of my circuit when I see Mayor pulling in from Folsom he realizes no one was here to pull, push, or kick my whining ass across the so called finish line he jumps out of the truck restarts his watch and says he wants to finish the workout with me. With no real plans on what to do since I was ready to call it quits. Mayor says we’ll just run till 0800 so we head out towards the OG Courthouse. We then headed up to Ingles then back down to the park for 1 final push around the track for a total of 1.5 mi. and we’re finished.

TIME

Thanks Mayor for that final push I needed that.

COT

No Real Need for Name-o-Rama

Pledge

Prayers

Well I guess this went as good as it could have being it was short notice. Also once I saw no one  was going to show I guess I could have just went on home. If I went home I would have just told myself no one will know if I was here or not but Mayor was there so someone would have known. I’d rather do the work than pretend I did it any day. It’s not always the things we do when when others are watching that matter. Often times it’s what we do when we think we’re all alone or no one is looking. What will you do when no one is looking. Just food for thought.

I’m not bagging on anyone and I hope it doesn’t look that way. I know that there were a lot of F3 events today. Good luck with Q School today and Great Work to those of you who ran The Rooster today.

I’M OUT
