They Like Me! They Really Like Me!

As you can read on the social medias TBD (or really Aquaman) and R4TJ (really all of the R4TJ site Qs past and present) have had sort of a love/HATE relationship.  As you can also read about on the social medias…  I was double dog dared into Qing at TBD.  Further back story from the social medias…  Aquaman was not attending my glorious Q that he EH’d me into and was now at R4TJ!?!?  Apparently he was happy to be at R4TJ as long as I wasn’t there.  What a baby!

I wake up and quickly sit down, as I do most mornings, and ponder what workout is in store.  This morning, I was reviewing my winky (not that winky) and making sure I was ready to roll.  As I sit in the quiet of a sleeping house, I hear the loudish sound of rain on the roof.  Not surprised, it was forecasted but it does have me rethinking a few things.  In all of my initial planning I was DETERMINED not to do any running so the workout was mostly stationary anyway.  I wasn’t excited about the rain personally but that’s the F3 life.  Eventually, I stood up, got ready, and was out the door.

So… I arrived at TBD.  Determined like they say are “to be” here.  One truck in the lot.  A car arrives, its FIA.  Minutes to spare and two more cars.  The time is upon us and today’s DETERMINED were out of their cars.  Some PAX were in rain gear but I assured them that we were going to take full advantage of this AOs amenities.  We mozy’d to the big shelter where we were surprised to find the lights on.  Fancy!

EC: My excuses include – it was raining, I was tired, and my foot hurts…

FNGs: I hear they don’t like rain…so no

• 10x IC Good Mornings
• 15x IC Daisy Pickers
• 15x IC Imperial Walkers
• 15x Hillbillies

A pause in the rain seemed like the right time to go grab some rocks.  We mozy’d over and grabbed one.  On the return we John Cusak’d our rocks overhead.  Then Left Hand only, Then Right Hand only.  We rounded out Warm-up with a staple…

• 40x SSH

The Workout:

• DORA in the shelter
  • Partner Up, We went 3 and 2 based on our numbers.

  • Partner 2 worked through 100 Merkins, 200 LBCs, and 300 squats
  • Switch at the completion of the tables circuit

It was during this DORA that I was shown how empty Aquaman’s rhetoric really is.  He missed me sooooo much, he brought R4TJ through the park and past the shelter to say hi!  Even the PAX formerly known as LipSync was there.  Pikachu and Abe and Red.  We got some junk for being in the shelter but I say… when the AO has shelter and it’s raining… its fair game.  Like Aquaman is ever here anyway…  He probably didnt even know TBD had a shelter…
