No track, No rain, No problem

No track, No rain, No problem

7 PAX took Citgo’s slack challenge of skipping out on Halloween candy at home in favor of a little Tuesday AM jog.

Warm-up:

Disclaimed, admitted that my alarm probably wouldn’t have been set if I wasn’t on the hook for the Q.

The Thang:

Head out of Latin, left on Providence for a mile warm-up down to High Ridge. Cross over Providence and hold up for instructions:

suicides – start at Providence/High Ridge

turn 1 – Briarberry Ct

turn 2 – Bittersweet Ln

turn 3 – Cherry Tree Ln

10 jump squats at the turns, 10 merkins at the start

Repeat til 6:05, logging anywhere from 6-7 miles in a tight group all AM.

Moleskin:

As I looked at the weather the night before, it was 75% chance of rain and a cozy 38 degrees. Wasn’t expecting many PAX to show and was preparing for a miserable solo run. Well maybe just Haze would show, after missing last week due to a silent protest of the track and getting called out for potentially missing an unprecedented two weeks in a row. However I was pleasantly surprised to wake up with dry conditions and 6 other PAX raring and ready to roll. Really appreciate the men that showed up to put in some work. The morning actually couldn’t have been better running conditions. A very faint drizzle and low 40s the whole time was really nice… I guess it’s all about expectations. Now if only I can figure out how to lower my M’s expectations of me at home I will be on to something. Thanks again to the 6 other idiots that posted this morning and held me accountable, it was a pleasure to lead.
