18 Pax made it out to Hunter Street Park for a lovely 74 degree and 94 percent humid morning. Slack chatter was looking for an unfriendly BRR beatdown. Lots of mileage was logged yesterday so YHC agreed. See, not always Angry Shutty. Sometimes Very Accomodating Shutty. Here’s what went down after the 0545 disclaimer and Shut-In Shignature warmup… Thang 1: Plank-o-rama First pax took a lap around the soccer field fence and circled back up at the skate park.

Second Q ever for YHC was to the point with some room for improvement. Cadence counts are getting better and everyone had fun… I think. It was quiet, not much in the way of mumble chatter for this beatdown. Thanks to the 18 that showed for the track work and 22’s. It was a beatdown and according to GTL possibly a new record for distance with the 3.5 miles we racked up. [Read More]

‘Twas a coolish morning, relative to the last two months, and not quite as dank. The skies were still angry from the previous night’s storms, still spitting the occasional rain drop but hinting at lashing out again. This palpable uncertainly is perhaps why a relatively small PAX tentatively gathered at the flag. The flag itself had been tentatively planted by Smokey, creating an uneasy tension. There remained, however, an underlying current of optimism amid the groggy remains from the weekend. [Read More]

The boot campers broke off and headed toward the community center to find the afore mentioned pain sticks waiting for them. [Read More]
