The Smokey redux

The Smokey redux

Preemptive apologies for the uninspired backblast. WordPress got me down.

Anyway, four of us in the rain…go time.

Run left out of OP onto Rea for +/- 1 mile to Providence Lane West.

This is a roughly 1/2 mile long stretch with great elevation changes and five side streets.

STRAVA

At each side street on the way to Lancer, do the following: 20 merkins, 20 knee ups, 20 squats

At Lancer, turn around for pure run back to Rea Rd. That’s one. Repeat until 6:05ish and run back to OP.

COT with encouraging takeout by Booyah.

Some went a couple minutes into OT, but everyone finished two complete sets with mileage of +/- 4.35 depending on the watch. Throw in 200 merkins, 200 knee ups, and 200 squats…and that makes for a nice little 45 minute workout. Good work today, gents!

I’ll admit to cursing myself, and later Alf, for choosing The Smokey for today after DMZ yesterday. Way too similar. That was not a good decision. I was definitely not attacking the hills today. Cold Cuts pulled away on the final mile, which coincidentally was all uphill to OP.

Good to have Curd and Booyah today. Do not cross Curd. Dude can hold a grudge. Not sure he’ll ever forgive Haze for moving the AO to South Carolina. Booyah wore the “cool” trucker hat. Yep. It’s all in the interpretation.

That’s all.
