Soul Crusher

18 men plus 1 FNG decided to throw caution to the humidity in order to embark a new journey into the unknown.

That Thang

Honey Bee gave instructions on what to do with your hands while you run. He calls it “Hips to Nips” hands held like a toy gun. This is a new topic that HB will go over in the coming weeks. All around form and warming up. Good stuff!

.8 mi warm up run North to Hwy 51 at fellowship pace.
Cross hwy 51 most of the PAX took off.
A few PAX did a mini warm-up toes in, heels high, high knees

All of the PAX accept for YCH took the Red Pill and ran the route from hwy 51 to Colony twice. This puts you at a close 6 and a half miles. Prohibition is a good example of this route https://www.strava.com/activities/332573237

The Moleskin:
Mr. Bean – Tells YHC he has been running this route doing a little secret BRR training putting down 14 to 16 miles home. #impressive
Haggis – Has been on a runners rampage. The man crushed tread nightly YHC heard 2 hours time, plus runs this last weekend after the half. I heard some talk of the legend taking some rest time – Good call!
Honey Bee – Sleeveless and promoting new dance moves was after it this morning https://www.strava.com/activities/332630097 smiling ear to ear about the new route and what it offers in options for Devil’s Turn.
Turkey Leg – Those turkey legs are fast. With no watch to prove just how fast you’ll just have to ask Frasier.
Hops – Always asking the questions. YHC likes questions that means somebody is paying attention. Was hoping to get a history lesson about Anson county for the FNG. Hops did know that the Pee Dee river runs through Anson Co. But not a worthy FNG name.
Abacus – The quiet laid back easy chair Abacus.  Always eager to push his pace work for the Red Pill. #thetallcoolone
Hopper – Looks to be shaking the pencil arm Fast Twitch runner image. Great run out there today bro!
Spackler – Glad to have you out. Know you have some pain you are working through and you had a strong run this morning. I heard some mumblechatter about wanting Spacks job (sleep late – open laptop for 1 hour – close laptop – beer – take a nap – beer – watch Golf – beer – go to bar)
Champagne – When Frasier went Metro on us. I figured at least Champ would reveal his guns.
Krypto – Mentions to YCH in pass back to the COT that he has been out for a while. Glad to have you back out in the gloom. Hope to see you next week!
Funky Cold – He has the best name. Not sure if he thinks it’s a cool name, but YHC likes it!
Sanka – Was on fire today. I caught him going down a hill as he was heading up.
Prohibition – Very strong run (see his Starva link above) watch out Pro is going to crush the full he has coming up.
Marvel – I saw this guy at the start and then at the COT that’s a good thing. Means he was after the hills.
Frasier – Gets all the PAX attention when he goes shirtless with just the reflective vest on. This has a term “Metro” I guess us Southern boys keep our shirts on and uptown funk likes to take it off.
Strange Brew – At 0556 I meet Brew and he is heading for round 2. Not that he needs to get back to the COT in time. But the man takes the Red Pill whether he likes it or not. Strong will wins the race over pace any day in my book.
FNG “Mistaflex” – Our FNG was EH’s by Marvel and wearing a shirt reading “Instaflex” some compound to help you get stronger. We landed on the name Mistaflex. Not to be confused with Mistabone (lets see who gets that one). Welcome to Devil’s Turn and I hope you return after that awful route. But hey it does not get any better only makes you better.

After informing the PAX of all the dangers on the route (low branches, raised concrete, cars, Wolfman) YHC forgot about one (mud) and took a spill in the warm-up. Hops took us out. Thanks for letting me lead I had a great time! Sound off if I missed anything! Aye
