YHC rolled up to an annoying flickering light in the Anvil parking lot. Had not posted at Anvil this year but was told by the PAX it has been that way since before Christmas. Someone please bring a BB Gun to take care of that thing. Beautiful weather this morning and 20 men arrived including one FNG. Welcome Pre-School! Thorough disclaimer and we’re off.

Mosey north on Rea and hang a right on 51. The PAX was catching up fast to 3 women runners. In an effort not to freak them out, YHC slowed the pace down knowing we would soon separate by turning right on Cary Ridge. The women also turned right on Cary Ridge. Damnit! Quick decision was made to do some plank work to create some separation. Continue run to Alderman Lane for some triple nickel action. 5 merkins at bottom and 5 jump squats at the top.
Continue to the end of Carey Ridge for some Mary.
Flutter x 15 IC
Heels to Heaven x 15 IC

The PAX then lined up abreast on Coburn and did 15 broad jumps and then ran to the intersection of Bevington Place. Run down Bevington to Rea road. 15 merkins at each speed hump. Total of 5 speed humps. Once finished run back for the six. Continue north of Rea back to Calvary entering the south entrance. Circle up for some more exercises.

Mosey back towards parking lot for 5 minutes of sprints. Insert a few more merkins and planks as well.
MOLESKIN
YHC is out of town on spring break last week and will likely fall behind on mileage goals. The selfish decision was made to focus on some heavier running which meant leaving campus this morning. Total distance covered was approx. 3.5 miles and 150 merkins for those counting. Great work by all this morning. 5 men from the Sturnbridge neighborhood attended today, including a FNG Pre-School brought by Mermaid. There is officially too many for carpooling so they had to bring 2 vehicles.
ANNOUNCEMENTS
Convergence with Anvil and Death Valley at Calvary next Wednesday, 4/12. Some experienced guys will talk about their F3 experience. Perfect opportunity to bring some newer guys and FNG’s.
Baracus and Stone Cold are heading to Pittsburgh to launch a site on 4/29. Let them know if you have any connections up there.
#Smoker Margo. Strong Q. Asked Preschool if he had done any running as of late on the ride in. Alas, a few miles here and there. He did a great job hanging with the PAX. Great to have Wrinkle back out. Another neighbor who posted a few times a few years ago. Strong work today from all. Enjoyed it as always.
