YHC signed up to Q for the first time since sometime in either late May or early June. Coming back to F3 in November after 5ish months of dealing with long COVID, I knew it was time to step up and Q. I’m glad I did because I would’ve gone back to bed this morning. It was pouring. Thankfully I had already planned to use my trusty F3 deck of cards so it was easy to be under cover. I rolled in around 5:29 to see our relatively new nantan (Slash) driving in circles in the parking lot. We quickly parked and walked over to the front of the school under cover. As I took out my deck of cards Slash informed me that he contacted Yellowcake yesterday to make sure that we were doing a workout and not just playing cards. Soon after, around 5:31 or so, Hammer, Buckwheat, and Pongo came in hot and joined us for the workout.

WARMUP: I chose to forgo the run because of the aforementioned rain. Instead we did the following: SSH, ISTs, penny pickers, and…I think that was it.

THE THANG: I set out the deck of cards and explained the process. Each of us would pick one card with me starting. Pongo was next, then Slash, Buckwheat, and Hammer. That’s one round. Five cards per round. In between rounds we ran, again under cover, to break it up. I made sure to tell the pax to be careful of the cards. This worked, until…Slash kicked them when we did one of the exercises. Way to go new nantan. However, he kinda redeemed himself soon after this when he told us that one of his children said it looks like he forms a heart with his hands when doing squats.
