Like olden times

Like olden times

YHC was recently looking back on Strava and saw an early post at Swift where we logged > 7 miles and compared that to more recent work where we may be hovering around 6 or low 6+ miles.  On Tuesday Brat’s pyramid of 3/5/7/10/7/5/3 with a mere minute of recovery time after each T-pace segment (except for 2 minutes after the 10) brought back the high mileage days where even someone on the backside of the curve (ahem, YHC) picks up serious miles.  It also helped that we arrived a couple of minutes past 0615, but the point is that the long intervals on little rest are making a comeback and they hurt.  And somehow, southbound on North Community House feels like continuous uphill.

Fahvra was killing it and it was great to see Fleetwood back at it in the gloom.  Kudos to Gruden and Kirby for pushing each out to the be there — until Kirby disappeared.  Some say he was chasing down the gazelles on their 10-mile day, but we may never know the truth.

And why the BB?  Because #waxhawcounts
