The Pax were enthusiastic about a mid-summer retreat from the hot weather this AM.

To go where none have gone before

WARMUP:
THE THANG: out market towards the river district. Turn right on gardenia, first right on morris hunt. Go all the way to the end, turn around and head back. Next left on downing, follow until it ends at the bottoms of the Berkshire loop. Follow the loop back uphill to Richard’s crossing and head back to cot. 4.25 miles total.

We don’t go down morris hunt that often, I thought it would be a good change. Maybe next time we go up gardenia instead of down

The NOT SO Sweaty Barry

If I missed your name, feel free to edit it in….

The weather did not agree with us, but I hope everyone had a nice evening at The Barry (aka The Sweaty Barry). I’m really not sure how a person could not have a good time with Milwaukee’s Beast and PBR being served.

Winner (repeat), Harry Carry … new traveling trophy awarded

Ruck winner (repeat), 3D … we’ll rustle up an award for the ruck winner next year

Thanks to the volunteers.

Thanks to the Rock Hill participants.

Thanks to Twister for gracing us with his presence.

Looks like we made it,

Barry Manilow
