ugly when she sees her psychiatrist they ask her to lie face down. Not appropriate for today, treat yo mama well. One runner hit the trails, unless someone was early or late and YHC didn’t see you. If so, let me know.

It was a beautifully cool and surprisingly dry morning to fight off the pull of the sack and work. As a first time First Watcher Upchuck was given the honor of choosing the red or blue pill. Concerned that the side-effects of the blue workout might last longer than 4 hours, red was chosen and the PAX’s destiny was set. The mosey seemed excruciatingly long to the end of Culpepper, but the path back to Ridge provided just the desired result. Some fast Lungers in this group. Diving straight into DQs during the COP proved to be a mistake as YHC heaved a total body groan that made the PAX collectively cackle. Glad to provide some comic relief, despite that sound being completely involuntary and a sure sign of non-hate days to come.

No Dropkick Murphys, no problem, F3 golf it is. YHC usually plays golf on the first Monday in May and being such a beautiful day, seemed like a great day to dust of the sticks and make the best of it, well as we F3ers do it. Good to have Chum along-side. Plenty of burpees, need a pro like Lab Rat for the DCP competition out there.

As restrictions lift, Punisher welcomes all men and hopes to see some old and new faces soon.

A nudge by Corporate early in the week to fill a gap in the Q sheet was just what YHC needed. Far too long and few DogPile Q’s highlight YHC’s file. Great to have Flatline back out in the gloom. He remains the F3 Covid Czar and instructs the PAX to watch how things go in Sweden with herd immunity. Though he hopes for a halfcourt shot vaccine in 8 months he suggests that everyone forget about sports and concerts for a really long time. On a far less serious note, ask Gomer to demonstrate his new and improved version of Gorilla Humpers and ask Hardywood to show you his Real World audition tape.

Saturday Morning Book Club
Just when you thought Hardywood and Swirly couldn’t get anymore super, they decided to run to the run before the workout. Next week, they plan to run to the run before the run to the thing. Along their merry way they picked up 3 more. Just to keep things fresh, the PAX took a right on Freeman off of Cary and proceeded past City Stadium to Douglasdale, to Blanton, Rugby, and Pumphouse back around to DogPile launch. Route after the thing was direct. Roughly 4 miles were covered. Hardywood will be putting out his own Best Sellers list soon.

YHC audibled halfway through the COP to avoid getting wet, but staying dry was simply not to be. Can’t attest to the dampness of the other PAX, but YHC was thoroughly drenched by sweat on a warm April morning after moseying 2 miles. Noted advantages of First Watch’s early launch to name a few, organically fewer than 10 PAX, driving a motorcycle without lights is acceptable, beating an early morning rain shower, post workout nap, too dark to see the pollen you ingest. During the 4 Corners a white Jeep Cherokee flew by heading west on River, YHC speculates Honeydo fartsacked First Watch, was heading to WDog, but had to turn back with a turtle head pokin.

Whilst the masses slumber, assassins lurk in the shadows, ready to pounce with merkins, squats, and burpees. Under the cover of darkness, ninjas mosey about Tuckahoe ready to strike, leaving no trace behind but the pungent scent of piss and vinegar and a 4th F or two. Raiding and pillaging and violating unsuspecting driveways all while swinging big bells. Chuck Norris even checks under the bed for this faceless, nameless threat at night. The earliest of AOs has been a secret, unknown to many before now, birthed by Kubota one cold November morning, the time has finally arrived for the world to know, the First Watch lives.
