Five will get you twenty

Five will get you twenty

An update to the original count for Devils Turn this week…originally thought to be 21 ended up with only 20 at the workout, but still a very strong number for the first Thursday in February.  All came out to hit Five Knolls for the morning.

The Thang:

Pretty simple as always…we run.  Today’s route was requested by none other than Bratwurst (oh and he didn’t show by the way).  Instead of taking the normal route up Rea to Five Knolls, we took a stroll west on Bevington to hit Elm and 51 and then hit Five Knolls from the other entrance.  From there we proceeded to plow through hill after hill until time was called.

Moleskin:

As noted a moment ago, Bratwurst didn’t show up.  But others did.  A big crew out there for some hills…some “newer” DT folks are becoming regulars.  Nice to continue to see Rebar and Depth Charge showing up week after week lately.

I will thank Bratwurst for the suggested route…going in the 51 entrance is a nice change of pace and allows the Pax to decide for the extra half lap or not at the end.  Several PAX took advantage of that and busted out some long mileage on the day.  Fahvra had his first post at Devils Turn and flat out killed it…almost 7 miles on those hills at a 6:16 pace…impressive.

No one got lost this week…well almost.  Strange Brew decided to get some extra distance in and the calvary was just about to called on a search and rescue mission but he ended up showing up at last….and not wearing a white tank top by the way (surprise).

Thanks for the opportunity to lead.
