So my threshold is 40 degrees. I prefer to workout at 40 degrees or warmer. When I arose from the fart sack my iPhone told me it was 38 degrees in Race City. I winced, hit snooze, and began to dream of the ridicule, shaming, name calling, and public beatings that would occur if I blew off my Q. I got up, laced up, and made the 4 minute drive to Hope Park where I had a nice selection of head lamps waiting to see what I had ready to dish out. I hate to run long distances, so we went with some hills with pain. It gives YHC a brief minute to breath and do some exercises before we run some more.
Mosey to the edge of the YMCA property, and the clydesdales peeled off for a 30 minute stroll. They had to leave early, and they always do their own thing anyway. The rest of us ran the 0.4 miles to the top of Dewey Hill. We ran back and forth from the tops of both ends of the hill where we did mericans of several varieties. At the bottom (middle), we did some Mary.
Moleskine:
1. We did 3.96 miles + pain in 40-ish minutes today. Nice work by all.
2. Brushless is looking faster. Even without the yoga pants
3. I overheard Motorboat confess that he hasn't run much since the BRR.
4. Dewey sent me a text that said that the workout sucked but he was glad he went. I think that just about every time I post.
5. Usain would workout naked if we let it happen. "It's not cold" is his answer when I ask why he has on a t-shirt and tiny shorts when it's 38 degrees.
6. Race City welcomes all Pax from anywhere in F3. Come join us. We have workouts 6 days a week, and as long as Man Hands isn't there, you'll feel welcome.
7. When Big Mean and I launched the Wheels A.O. years ago, we never thought it would become a Race City staple. Thanks to Nymph, Honeymoon, and now Usain for being master Q's. Thanks for letting me lead today.
