Better late than never – #Gaga

WARM-A-RAMA:

Garcia ran in from somewhere…we waited on Snoopy, still missed him.  TC was also on Snoopy time, that's a first.

THE THANG:

Option 1 – EZ 6 miles on the "#Gaga – Jetton & Park Loop for 6" route. Big Montana led the EZ group…which apparently isn't exactly 6 miles, of 5.5 even.  To complete the 6 for those interested, head back and do a lap around the park.  That'll get you there.  Garcia, Ghost and Dallas hit up the Horseshoe and made it on 2 BB's.  Hopefully they also got taco's…3 is better than 2.

Option 2 – 3×1600's on the new "#Gaga – 1600m speed loop".  Leaderboard says Snoopy has the lead…the route is a little tricky, as you have to cross Camberly onto Tudor Farm Alley to complete the mile.  Hit it up…6:09 is the time to beat.  It only counts if you can do as many pull-ups as Snoopy too.  So good luck.
