Not alone

I was not alone in this Thursday morning as five others showed up for an 0615 sunrise to run around Kingsley.

I placed three buckets full of adventurous exercises with -some- complaints about how surprisingly hard pain I seemed to be delivering via slips of paper that were randomly chosen.

We prob got in about 1.5-ish miles of running as we chased each bucket to reveal a rough painstation.

Thx for the opportunity to contribute to the cause.

Gratitude Reminder

WARMUP: None. Only HIMs, none needed

THE THANG: 3 runners tackled 4-5 miles down Jackson, up Harris, back via spratt and misc trek through Whiteville Park.

5 ruckers tackled the Jackson/Harris/Massey loop plus some WEP time.

All left COT under the initial rays of Mr Sun up at least 1-0 on the day. Sprocket and Old Bay left up 2-0 after a double down.

COT: Blessed by the presence of Cornhole! he reminded all pax of the truly powerful source The Fort is to fuel each of us. he knows it well bc of the absence in his daily life since his move to Chester. may those of us who drink from this fountain truly appreciate what it offers!

Thanks to virgin Dawn Patrol pax (Quack and CK) for adding DP to their itinerary. we’re gaining traction — 8 pax is a new site record!

Thanks to Cake Boss for passing the baton to me in his absence. always an honor to lead.

Run or ruck

WARMUP:
THE THANG: run 4 miles
MARY:
ANNOUNCEMENTS:was a lot of fun running this morning. Did learn about OldBay new health monitor to tell him if he has had enough sleep, if h he is in his target heart rate, and a lot of other really cool stuff. He and I might differ on State schools but both like technology. Twister and Cakeboss are really getting after the runs and sprocket likes to double down. Delorean gets his in even if at the wrong location.
