Take My Breath Away

Take My Breath Away

Ahhh… the steamy sounds of Berlin… were NOT heard this morning!! However, 13 goats entered the coolness of the Spring morning to exhaust their lungs of air while pushing their muscles, stamina and form to new levels! By 0515 we were surprising all accounted for… both Nuke and Insomniac were present, and Mr. Brady had already informed me he was out… so we disclaimed and off we went.

The Thang:
1. Warm-up jog down Strawberry Ln, then stop halfway back for some dynamic stretching
2. 2 sets of :30-:30-1:00 at I-Pace with recovery jog between each back to the starting point
3. 1 set of 1:00-1:00-2:00 at I-Pace with 2-3 minute recovery jog between each back to the starting point
4. Repeat 2 sets of :30-:30-1:00 at I-Pace with recovery jog between each back to the starting point
5. Final 1:00 at I-Pace; Recovery/Cool-down jog back to parking lot, light stretching…. DONE!!

We completed between 5 and 5.5 miles… EXCELLENT JOB!

Moleskine:
You guys never give up! Lots of heavy breathing out there… but everyone continues to develop their running form and stamina as evidenced by not only the consistent pace of each of the runs, but also the pace itself. You guys are getting faster, and stronger!

HUGE welcome to Beefeater who YHC forgets is a site FNG… but not anymore! Great to have you, brother! The same for Gomer Pyle and Band-Aid, who are not site FNG’s, but aren’t as regular. You guys are very welcome to come as much as you want! Excellent job from all 3 of you this morning!

Brat and Joker led the segments… until Insomniac decided to leave it all on the last :30 segment… It was definitely as moving, if not more so, than Chariots of Fire… I think I heard it playing!

Tclaps to Icicle for joining YHC for a pre-run, plus sporting a new hair-less-do… he is just waiting for it to get a little warmer to show it off!!

Retread, Booyah, Nomad, Brew and Nuke… you guys are the heartbeat of the workout! Thanks for being there week-in/week-out and giving 100%.

Insomniac took us out with a great prayer.
