It was a soupy morning for the 4th Wednesday of the Month Show to Know route and the 14 Pax who posted were treated to the Hilla Crazy 8's Route.
Starting at the Green, turn Right on Concord, then turn Right on Woodland, take it down, around & up Spring Street to a Right onto South Street, up and back past the Green to a Left on Griffith, Left on Sloan and take it around and up to Gamble by Ada Jenkins before going Left onto Jetton, Right onto Potts, a quick Left onto Catawba by the old Fuel Pizza, and Left onto Main Street to head back to the Green. Once back – REPEATO! 2 laps total for 5 miles.
Everyone did a great job with the hills, especially Easy and Shrooms who crushed them at an average sub 8 min pace for the full 5 miles. Nice work! A personal highlight was passing the 3x Rose Transportation busses on Woodland, which were the Davidson K-8 5th graders leaving on their DC trip, and YHC's M & 2.1 were on bus #2, which I cheerfully waived at an later received a confirming text that they had seen me / us!
It's always a pleasure to run with these men and share in the fellowship & pain of getting better & faster.
