One intrepid warrior of The Gloom threw off the pull of the Fart Sack (and last night’s tequila old fashioneds) to hit the mean (ok, the office park) streets of Plantation. Temps were 75 and sunny. According to the restaurant worker (lady) who came out of the office building at 5:20 a.m. to see YHC unexpectedly 15 feet away, the following might have happened:
2 loops around the lake, using various routes / paths / etc. No scream (thank Heavens) when the lady came flying out of the building, never looked to her right, and then realized someone was close by. Disaster averted. All good.
This brought to mind a question. When startling a person (but, mostly, a woman) not expecting you in the dark, what’s the etiquette? YHC chose, “Good morning. I’m back behind you. Sorry to disturb you.” (Pause for slight gasp). Then, “Sorry, didn’t mean to startle you. Just out for a walk” (With my 35 pound massive chest weights).
Number, name, and YHC took himself out.
NMS: Marriott provides two coffees cups, paper. YHC now makes two cups, takes one to the car, and leaves it. The first cup goes along for the first lap. Swap for the second cup on the second lap. Suddenly, YHC does not detest rucking as much.
