Full Moon Mountain Goat Fever

Full Moon Mountain Goat Fever

7 Goats emerged under the light of a rare Christmas Night Full Moon for an even rarer Boxing Day/Saturday edition of Mountain Goat.  Having disclaimed, we set off for the track to accomplish the following:

1. 1/2 mile warm-up and dynamic stretching.
2. 5 minutes at I-pace, 4 minutes recovery
3. 4 minutes at I-pace, 4 minutes recovery
4. 4 minutes at I-pace, 4 minutes recovery
5. 3 minutes at I-pace, 3 minutes recovery
6. 3 minutes at I-pace, 2 minutes recovery
7. 1/2 mile cool down, stretching… DONE!

We covered between 5.5-6.0 miles.

Excellent job out there for a non-standard Mtn Goat day, and the day after a lot of festivities!  Neither Strange Brew nor YHC knew how many to expect given the day change and Christmas travel.

What a great PAX… For those that missed, you missed one of the tougher workouts in my opinion if for nothing less than the 5 minute segment at I-pace… That is a longer time than you think!

Great to have Pele and Stump Hugger both back out from some nagging injuries.

Freedom was giving all as usual, and brought his brother Scrubs (Jeff) out, who was was the only one possibly not challenged by the workout.  Scrubs is definitely a strong runner!

Great to have Geraldo join us without a ruck… And of course Strange Brew always provides stability along with 100% effort!

I’ll be honest that I wasn’t looking forward to the workout based on said 5-minute segment, which is why I NEEDED to do it!  We’re 2 weeks out from Joe Davis Run, and you guys are ready!

Brew took us out with a great prayer!
