Running Roundabouts and Hills of Millbridge



Running Roundabouts and Hills of Millbridge

The Warmup

Well usually the warmup is the easy part of the hour unless you are Premature.

Gerber, Tool Time, Sugar Daddy, and I were together and I was giving the DiCCS. We saw another group of guys, new faces to us, and thought they were Rucking.

5:15 came, according to Premature watch, and the four of us were off. We turned right out of the parking lot, turned right again onto Kensington, and another right back into Millbridge heading to Nesbit Park’s roundabout. Gerber asked if we were going to stretch and at the same time, I hear a freight train coming behind and of course its Hurray. He blew buy me and said “they are a bunch of pissed off guys behind you.” Sugar and I looked at each other puzzled and realized the other guys were not Rucking, they were there to run. At the same time, we see a cavalry of PAX coming toward us led by Bottlecap and Hollywood. We all joined together and proceeded to the roundabout to start the WARMUP.

  • 20 SSH
  • 15 Imperial walkers
  • Calf stretch 15 seconds per leg
  • Left and right runners stretch

PAX Mosey through the trail and back to Millbridge Parking Lot to start the THANG

The Thang

The Thang was simple, RUN! We traveled many roads in Millbridge and of course each road had its own hill.

  • Run up Millbridge Parkway to first roundabout, waited for the 6 (I was one of the 6), then I gave the command, run to the next roundabout. As we started, that is when Bottlecap reprimanded me about not being loud enough when giving directions. I said every time I talk louder, people tell me I am too loud. BC said ok, then tell everyone to gather up.
  • Ran down Hudson and met at next roundabout, waited for 6 (yes, I was part of the 6), then ran back to roundabout
  • Ran to Britannica and took a left to the dead end. I was running next to someone and I asked his name, he stated Bratwurst. I told him sorry man, I cannot not see without my glasses.
  • Ran to the other end of Britannica, turned back, and headed to roundabout
  • Ran to the other side of Hudson and back
  • At this point with 15 minutes to go, we ran and took a right onto Golden View. Yes, we ran to the end, around the roundabout, back to Millbridge Parkway, and took a right back to COT
  • The PAX running range was between 6.5 – 7.5 miles (we can guess the gazelles who made 7.5 miles!!)

Everyone pushed it today and got in a good workout to start winding down the week. Great job!
