THANG:

This morning's #GAGA took the pax on an out-and-back up Catawba, left on Jetton, and down John Connor to the end (i.e., not including Belle Isle): http://bit.ly/2Mroyzb

Along the way, we did a 1 mile warmup, 3 x 2 miles at 10k pace (adjusted for humidity) with 0.5 mile jog recoveries, and a 1 mile cool down, for a total of 9 miles.

NAKED-MAN MOLESKIN:

  • Great push by the pax this morning.  I believe everyone ended up with 8-9 miles.  It was not easy in those conditions.  Siri told Professor that it was 95% humidity out there, but it sure seemed like 100%.
  • The Chippendales outnumbered the non-Chippendales.
  • Snoopy rolled into the AO at Snoopy time, and yet again managed to catch everyone.
  • Hoodie crushed it, and set 2 mile and 5k Strava PRs.  Thanks for the push!
  • Lego and Smoke chatted up the Gears crew en route to knocking out a steady 8.
  • Anchovy, Prof, and BC laid it down and got all 9.  Anchovy just keeps getting faster out there.  Breakfast Club pushed through a stomach bug to complete the entire workout.  Great efforts all around.
  • The pax left a whole lot of sweat on John Connor, as well as some other mementos.  Some were a little lighter for the trip back to the AO.
  • Thanks to DonHo for trusting YHC with the keys while he was DR.  Thanks to Lego for taking us out.  And thanks as always to Auto and Eeyore for the EH in June 2016.  I'm forever grateful.

Aye,

TC
