Prologue:
This is my nineteenth Q of the 2020 Q Challenge.
Alarm set, gear stacked and ready, I went to sleep confident in the outline for my Juggernaut Q. I woke on time, got ready, and even had time to brew a cup of coffee for the drive. As I turned onto Baileywick, I was kicking ideas around for a backblast title. “Juggernaughty or Nice” came to mind, and I chuckled to myself as I turned into the park. I cruised down the entrance road, slowing down to size up the rock pile on the way in and also noting plenty of space in the parking lot for possible parking line work. I pulled into an open space and parked my car. As I turned off the engine, I immediately realized I was still wearing my addidas slides and had left my workout shoes at home. Oh, boy. No time to run home, I wasn’t going to shirk my Q duties. A shoeless workout this would have to be.

YHC took us out
Naked Moleskin:
Oh, wow. I can’t believe I forgot my shoes. I was prepared to tough it out, but am very grateful that Laces Out had a spare pair. Thank you, brother!
Strong work by Bluetick with his second post on his second day of F3.
Q Source/3rd F afterwards was great. T-claps Yoko for leading and Coco Crisp for the coffee.
“Juggernaughty or Nice” has a ring to it. I’ll have.to Q next December just so I can use it in the backblast.
I used my phone’s voice memo to make sure I got everyone’s name at COT. For some reason, my iPhone titled the recording as “Gateway Bail Bonds”.
This was my nineteenth #F3Q20 #2020Challenge Q. Final stop is The Arena on 12/18! I will be sure to bring my shoes.
