Oh wait it’s my Q?

Date: 2023-09-15 AO: mountain-goat Q: Spammer PAX: Sherpa, kilowatt, gullah, Mayflower, lois, sledge, Spammer FNGs: None COUNT: 7 Q #2 for the Birthday week in the books. Saw I was asked to Q this morning around 0430 as YHC has an early bedtime and doesn’t get texts after lights out…
WARMUP: This morning was intended to be a light run since most of the pax were coming off BRR, however to YHC’s surprise most of the BRR pax were fart sacking. Warmup was a quick jog from SCMS to the light @ Strawberry & 51 for some dynamic stretching.
THE THANG: The route was a basic 4.5 mile circle. 51 to Elm, Elm to Bevington, Bevington to Coburn, Coburn to Browns Pond, Browns Pond to Rosecliff, Rosecliff to Strawberry which brought us back to SCMS. Early cutoff option on Rea if Pax didn’t want to go all the way to Elm. Total route was right at 4.5 miles. Most were able to finish with extra time to spare. COT: Ty @kilowatt
