10 Goats with clearly questionable senses showed up at South Charlotte Middle School Port for a rather soggy edition of F3 Mountain Goat. Strange Brew and YHC did a short pre-run and we were wondering who would be silly enough to get out of their warm, dry beds to come get soaked and gassed! The Men of F3 Mountain Goat… that’s who!!!
Everyone was also on time! So we disclaimed quickly and set sail for Strawberry Ln for a warm-up mile and some stretching. The program was very simple:
1. 400m I-Pace/400m recovery
2. 800m I-Pace/400m recovery
We did that 3 times plus 1 extra 400m, followed by recovery cool-down, some quick stretching… DONE!!!
We completed approx. 5.5 – 6.0 miles.

Excellent job out there today in less than ideal conditions! YHC suggested it was just heavy dew… but if I’m honest with myself, it was at a minimum a heavy fog!! Very BRR-esque!
Great to have BOG out for the 2nd straight week! Thanks for starting to make MG a part of your week!
The other regulars are just plain strong… I always say it because it is always true!
I heard Booyah telling Nuke that he regrets taking 13 days off (sickness and M-travel)… and we missed him! Great to have him back… you’ll make those days up quickly!
The Mouth was questioning why his HR monitor was spiking during cool-down. I reminded him that while his body was cooling down, his mouth was ramping up… and obviously that takes a lot of energy!!
Geraldo felt right at home as we were probably a little closer to “rucking” than “running”!
Icicle, Retread and Nomad… knocking it out strong!
Best of luck to Strange Brew on his Fast 5 run tomorrow!
