Swans Run

Date: 2024-01-11 AO: the-devils-turn Q: voodoo PAX: Astro (Kyle Kirchhoff), bunker, Gold Digger, hairball, soft_pretzel, Orange Whip, turkey_leg, retread, Dosey Doe, voodoo FNGs: None COUNT: 10 5 of us ran the called route at the usual time while the other 5 started early and ran hills or other marathon workouts. It was brisk out there, but as Retread pointed out, you warmed up after the first mile or so. Our foursome started out together, but then TL did what TL does and tried to leave us. OW wouldn’t let that happen. Softie and I decided discretion was the better part of valor and weren’t tempted by (or capable of) the spicier pace.
We met up with Bunker and Astro for COT and Astro took us out.

The parking deck never disappoints including dead roaches, beer cans with a cut out for shot gunning and a rubber 🍆 .

All that aside, blocks were lifted, stairs were climbed and the wind tussled my hair. Good times.
