Mosey across Community House and turn on headlamps for off-road trail run. YHC had marked the path with yellow ribbon.  Count off and pair up if not wearing a lamp

Lead the PAX through the woods and pop out on corner of BC and Community House (CH). Do a little plank-o-rama/6 inches while the PAX file out of the briars.

Mosey to the amphitheatre for set of 3s up and down

Head to the pointy grass for Mary (20 IC each)

Mosey to the bridge and do 15 merkins and plank while we wait.

Take Hotel path back to Launch and lookout for ice and solo runner on your way

YHC was looking for something different for Brave today. We need our mileage as much as we need the obstacles so we ventured out to uncharted territory. The single-track off-road course was fun. YHC never saw a single ribbon i put out beyond the first two. I led the PAX through but couldn’t see a thing to to bright light and shadow being cast from behind. We also didn’t pop out at the right place. Not sure the PAX caught on to that. Lead with confidence. Here we are boys! Next time i will use the suggestion of caution tape. No coyotes were spotted.  Saw one two weeks ago run into these exact woods after stonehenge. Of course we almost had an encounter with a security guard at premiere again. This time we were doing wall squats on the building. He left us alone and went in another building. Honeybee and YHC thought we ought to scramble at this point. Good idea. Honeybee also wanted the pointy grass.  Pointy and wet. Blame him. All-in-all i had 4.25 miles for the day. Not bad.
