23 men got their last heavy FastTwitch in before the BRR with another shot at the Dunkin Knolls run made popular by Utah (sans cinder blocks this time)
The Thang:
Warmup Run down to Five Knolls entrance on Rea, partner up
Partner 1: Run down Five Knolls to cul-de-sac at end, and return
Partner 2: Run up Rea to stoplight at Dunkin Donuts, and return
Flapjack – each partner runs each leg once; can repeat, but return to entrance by 6am
Regroup at entrance to Five Knolls, and return to school
Mileage: 7+
Moleskine:
- Great time seeing all the dedicated Fast Twitchers hitting it hard again on Five Knolls to wrap-up our summer BRR training regimen
- Runstopper is clearly ready to lay it out on the BRR as he blew past the Q on the warmup run – looking forward to seeing him sprinting up the nipple next week
- Some serious speed out there – I think a few may have been able to get in multiple laps. Frasier? Thin Mint? Brady?
- For us mortals we seemed to be able to just get a full lap of each leg, not a minute left for any cinder block shenanigans.
- Brady apparently wanted to make sure of that, so he did an extra credit run – apparently all they way back up to Dunkin before he realized he was the last man on the track. Extra credit.
- Lots of part-timers today… Hairball showed us the true meaning of LIFO, magically appearing in mid-course, and disappearing somewhere in the gloom shortly thereafter. Joker made another quick in/out appearance as well, jetting out in standard form
- Thanks for the take-out from Mr. Brady
Announcements:
- Labor Day Convergence (Monday) – Stonecrest, 7am
- Fast Twitch will meet next week with a lighter taper run plan to keep the legs moving a few days out from the BRR
