A thunderstorm with high winds rolled through The Fort around 0200hrs and woke YHC. As I sat in the parking lot at 0509hrs, I began to wonder if it had done the same to other PAX, and that I may be running alone this morning.

I didn’t have to fret long, as a rush of vehicles and one running Band Camp ascended upon the AO.

A total of 8 PAX started the day off right with the Pledge of Alliance at 0514hrs. A disclaimer was given and we began warm ups with:
20 SSH IC
10 Tappy Taps IC
10 LSS IC
Then we ran from Veterans Park, up Main Street, took a right on 160 and ran to Unity Street.

The Thang
RUn a series of expanding “loops” in the Whiteville Park neighborhood, with varying exercises assigned to each loop.
Loop 1 – Run down Unity St, left on Elliot St, left on Springs St and left on 160. 10 Merkins at every corner.
Loop 2 – Run down Unity St, left on Leroy St, left on Springs St and left on 160. 10 Sumo Squats at every corner.
Loop 3 – Run down Unity St, left on Hill St, left on Springs St and left on 160. 10 Wide Armed Merkins at every corner.
Loop 4 – Run down Unity St, left on Oak St, left on Springs St and left on 160. 10 CDD at every corner.
Loop 5 – Run down Unity St, left on Elliot St, left on Springs St and left on 160. 10 Monkey Humpers at every corner.

The established neighborhood can be pretty dark in the gloom, but all PAX were able to push themselves and others (as a few partnered up). 4 miles was the goal and most PAX got them all in. 

We all met back at CoT at 0600hrs for announcements, prayers and praises.
