The Thang
The plan was to run to the water tower and do some sprints up the path from the street. Then we were to go over and back on the bridge a couple of times. Head back all the way around the Ridge loop and after do a small loop before stretching for the last couple minutes…
…but lightning was everywhere so we modified the run club to stay under the pavilion.
SSH 90(ish) lost count
Alternating:
Step ups for 5 minutes
Circular laps in the pavilion switching directions every 2 to 3 minutes.
By the end, we had done 15 minutes of step ups and a 106 laps around the pavilion.
Circle of Trust
it’s our responsibility to call out our fellow PAX if they’re making poor decisions. Most importantly, if our fellow packs are indulging too much we should find a support system for them so they don’t put themselves or anyone else in danger. Ride sharing is widely available, use it.
Naked Man Moleskin
Hackman tried to convince us to run out in the rain, which I debated until there was a large bolt of lightning very close by. At that point I realized I had made the right decision, keeping us in the pavilion. I look forward to having a run in the rain with Hackman sometime soon. Props to Ecto for picking up the siteQ.
