Who Left The AC On???

9 Goats showed complete disregard for the coldest temperatures of the season in order to improve their running form and stamina.  Only 7 finished… more on that below.  After a rather passive disclaimer by YHC, off we went to the track for the following:

  1.  Warm-up mile + stretching
  2. 400m I-Pace/400m recovery/800m I-Pace/400m recovery
  3. Repeato until done.  The PAX completed 2.5-3.5 sets for a total of 5-6 miles.  Excellent work!
  4. DONE!

Moleskine:

Man was it cold!!!  Body parts covered were ok, but anything exposed quickly turned cold!  Additionally, as the morning progressed and daylight approached, the lovely North breeze picked-up, and the South turn into the final stretch became very noticeably cool!

Great to have Horsehead join us… I don’t think this is his first time, but definitely it has been a while.  HH was injured in the line of duty while Q-ing a workout, and since the Disclaimer doesn’t cover the one giving it, I hear he sued for $2.5Million… we are still waiting on judgment!

But seriously, great to have you, and thanks for joining me on the pre-run.  This was HH’s first post in 5 weeks, so he should be thanking me the whole weekend!

Also, great to have Chico join us for his Mtn Goat site FNG!  He lives probably a mile or less from SCMS as the crow flies, but it takes about 10 minutes to take “the long way”.  Great to have you out… please come back as much as you can!

Tweetsie, Lois, Nomad, Early Bird… same great effort as always… Stronger Every Day!

Icicle and The Mouth had to leave early.  Icicle I get because I know he gets into work early… plus he refused my extra pair of gloves… so I assume by 5:50 he couldn’t feel his hands!

I’m not sure why The Mouth had to leave… I think something about the office Christmas donut party was mentioned… so of course makes sense he should cut it short for that!  Someone might get the last Boston Crème for goodness sake!  We were blessed early with some #TWSS zingers, so all was not lost!

Guys… always an honor to lead this great group of men!  I’m impressed the numbers that showed up for a simple, but tough, workout when you could have easily slept in your warm beds…!

Announcements:

  1. Joe Davis Run…. get signed up!
  2. Begin thinking about BRR participation… many of you don’t have a choice… so now is the time to start planning and training.   More to come!
  3. Nomad has Mtn Goat Q on 12/23.

Hate that I’m missing all this fun! Fear not, PAX. I am going to take another week to ease into fast running and then I will be there.
