Ground Level

Ground Level

12 Pax entered the muggy Gloom of South Charlotte and left having endured an hour of tough interval work.

The Thang

After disclaiming the Pax, we set out at a moderate mosey pace on Woodfox to Rounding Run. YHC had instructed the Pax to run the Rounding Run loop in a clockwise direction, but upon arriving at the start of the loop, YHC promptly turned right, or counterclockwise. Looks like YHC will be spending a portion of Father’s Day studying Clocks for Dummies. Or maybe the anticipation of seeing everyone’s favorite low rider, Ground Level, was just too great. After completing the warm up, the Pax regrouped on Strawberry for a bit of dynamic stretching (toes, heels, B-skips) before embarking on the main event.

5:00 @ interval pace, 4:00 recovery, rinse and repeat;

4:00 @ interval pace, 3:00 recovery, hey look at that, it’s 0609, head back to launch for name-o-rama and COT.

ΝΑΚΕΔ ΜΟΛΕΣΚΙΝΕ

1. Strong work by everyone this morning putting forth maximum effort. Five minutes seems like forever at I-pace.
2. It’s only the second bullet point, and YHC is running short of moleskine items. There was some lively Twitter banter about Tweetsie living the low rider lifestyle back in the day.
3. Thanks for bringing soup and contributing to the Area 51 food drive to benefit the Calvary Food Pantry.
