The Boot Loop

The Boot Loop

Solid crew of 13 posted in what were expected to be nasty conditions.  Not the case, the weather could not have been more comfortable.  Light rain at times with some light wind to cool us down.  58 and rain is about as good as it gets.  Disclaimer provided to the pax and included the fact that the QIC has not done any real running aside from bootcamps in several months.  Circled up where we stood.

Haze put me on the calendar prior to vacating site-Q duties.  Told YHC it was time to get back out to Fast Twitch.  That was in January or February.  YHC has been dealing with foot issues in 2018 and running has been put on the banned list.  Well, running several miles on paved surfaces, anyways.

How soon we (YHC) forget about the pain the hills of Raintree can inflict.  Initial mosey felt great.  The initial hill not so much.  The six mentioned above was YHC for each segment.  Appreciate the gazelles circling back.  Not sure I ran any faster, but had company.

Usuals up front.  Purell, Thin Mint, Rachel, Lorax.  Speaking of Thin Mint, glad to see him at Fast Twitch.  Mentioned that he was trying to break out of his unintentional routine that he had set in motion.  Uncle Rico, Fastro, Margo, Semi, Gummy, Fault Line all getting after it.  Well done today men.

Aside from the a## kicking YHC endured, it was great to get out to Fast Twitch again.  Been too long.  Appreciate the invite to lead.

The Strava looks like a boot, very similar to what Italy looks like on a map.
