The Dutch Fest

Event Date

Feb 15, 2021

AO


Alarm went off fine at 4:50, except I closed my eyes (after 2 Preblasts, mind you) and opined them a agin at 5:22 (Titan is more than 8 minutes away and I had not yet changed for the elements).

arrived at top of AO parking lot to see Jaws and Turnpike about to round the corner around the school. Something about "bank holiday" and they were forgiving of my issues. I finished adding layers, lights and setting of the alarm for Tha Thang and we embarked:

Tha Thang (Exercises: X = in cadence)

Windmills X10

expectation – stop every 5 minutes for Windmills.

reality – we stopped more like where it made sense or where the alarm went off for 10 or more minutes and I didn't hear it due to double muffling of phone alarm in water belt and my hat over my ear holes. Probably about 5 stops for windmills instead of 9 planned.

SSH x10 at the end because why not

Running: just over 2.8 miles for me and Jaws, 5+ for Turnpike from a solo Standard. Ivan only guess since my watch never started at the beginning and I just stole Jaws' mileage off Strava (never could get me added through the app).

Moleskine:

at least 3 fails on the morning but Jaws and Turnpike supported my ambitious all-windmill workout. I've wanted to do this for years, and now I'm satisfied to never do it again.

Good coffeteria with Hippy and GoodLife (also Coin Flip?) in attendance. World problems have been solved, now we just need to execute the plans.
