Is it Lateral Line Hop or Just a Line Jump?
All BackBlasts BackblastsAugust 4th, 2020
9 PAX showed up strong today including one FNG Jacob to join the crew. The sky was blue and the weather very pleasant and the men got down to it. FNG Jacob is YHC’s grandson and is a natural runner, but he wanted to see what all this F3 stuff was about, since he hears about it a lot. Now he knows and he’s a better man for it! Jacob is from Buffalo NY, he likes to run, and spend time on his bike and is an avid gamer. He is here for 3 weeks and will be back. A full disclaimer was given and it went down something like this:

– Lateral Line Hop till Q signals stop.
It was at this point we started discussing the correct name for the Line Jump, as there was no small confusion on which way to jump over the line… apparently Alcatraz and TinyDancer had things under control as Lateral Line Hop was determined to be the correct terminology, as it gives the implication that we are jumping the line from side-to-side, instead of front-to-back. Good point.
However somewhere during the discussion, we started to talk about FNG Jacob and possible names for him when he returns later this week. So after some good amount of mumblechatter, Q decided to stop the LLH and move over to the…
– Line Jump till Q signals stop.
Again we continued our discussion about who each of the PAX were, to introduce FNG Jacob to the group.
Mosey a bit more around the parking lot, until a race broke out to see who could lap the group, with Gumby in solid starting lead… but FNG Jacob couldn’t be outdone, and quickly caught up. But somewhere from the back of the pack, TinyDancer came blasting out in excellent runners form and almost caught up with the pacers. Sully gave us a ten count and we went back into Round 2.
