Let Freedom Ring!

Let Freedom Ring!

An emotional 11 Goats wiped the tears from their eyes as Freedom stepped out of his red Jeep, which Sensei drove, to rejoin Mountain Goat after a 1+ year hiatus.  After the man-hugs were done, and we were disclaimed… off we went…

1. 2-mile Easy run around Rounding Run; back to Strawberry for quick dynamic stretching
2. :30 I-pace, recover back to the start
3. :30 I-pace, recover back to the start
4. 1:00 I-pace, recover back to the start… 1-set
5. We completed 3.66 sets
6. Finish with cool-down and some final stretching; DONE

Completed 5 – 5.5 miles depending on pace.  Excellent job!

This is such a great bunch of guys to workout with each week!  It is such a pleasure to run with you boys!!

We had several Kotters who returned from layoffs and IR, and even a site FNG!  Welcome back to Freedom!  We have missed you!!  Hopefully you will plan to come back more often!  Great to have Sensei rejoin as well… even though he and I run multiple times per week, we haven’t been together at the Goat since prior to BRR.  You both did great out there!

Then there is Dumpster Fire, who is coming off of IR for a strained hammy.  Excellent job, and great to have you back!  The neighbors were starting to worry about you… I will let them know the Yeti’s back in town!  Ironically, DF was out during the months where going shirtless was not feasible.  I’m sure the residents of Strawberry Ln will be excited to know of the visual specimen that awaits them!

Gullah… Welcome brother!!  I can’t believe this is Gullah’s FNG site visit!  That just ain’t right!  But better late than never!  You are ALWAYS welcome to join!

This is Beaver’s 2nd time in as many months!  Glad you are able to join us!!

Marlin is 2nd week in a row… that’s 1-week away from being a regular!

Lois, Tweetsie, Nomad and Retread… solid as always!  Thanks to Nomad for joining me for the early warm-up!
