Three pax descended on a small but feature-rich park in downtown Asheville for a remote workout.  @F3Asheville had requested that we run recon on TC Roberson High School, but the logistics of posting this morning required it to be within walking distances of our Asheville business trip accommodations.  A drive-by recon trip to TC Roberson High School took place this afternoon, with details emailed directly to F3Asheville.

This downtown AO (Pack Square Part) seems to be perfectly for a small workout group (say 10-15), or larger groups if used as a launching point for running workout around town.  Grid Lock observed that the grassy areas of the park might be torn up quickly with a large group.

The workout this morning drew curious stares from onlookers, including city workers in a truck that made several slow drive-bys from all sides of the park to investigate the COP and People Chair with “arms up”.  But the pax, in F3 their gear, kept the ruckus down and focused on the pain.

    Great job men! If you need some ideas of AOs in Ashevegas, let me know. I attended college up there and know of a few great spots.
