Kingsley Loop is a thing

WARMUP: I warmed up the PAX with CLEAR instructions
THE THANG: Fartleks on Kingsley Loop, not Kingsley loop. Notice that one is a proper name and one is well, not. Run laps alternating moderate and fast pace. Rabbits got 5.
MARY: No Mary

Naked Man Moleskin: I had it worked out. But I guess I need to do a better job of Vision Articulation, Persuasion, Exortation. *Noted
Fort Mill Pax are the best around!

Footloose Marketing at Clydesdales

WARMUP: The Q warmed up with a few laps in the LPL parking lot. Olaf warmed up out and about.
THE THANG: The pax were given the route out to the Footloose AO and back. (as the site Q, never miss an opportunity to put the AO on the Pax’s mind). Modifiable from 3+ miles – add or subtract as necessary. 11 men launched and passed in front of my M on her way to work at the red light at the Peach Stand.
11 men arrived back safely!
This is not a DeepFake. This is an ACTUAL Real backblast from Clydesdales.
MARY: nah, not today.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: marriages
COT: marriages.

What Goes Down Must Come Up

THE THANG: No Q. Stang took the lead and decided we should run for the Harvest Point hills. First half was mostly downhill. Second half was mostly uphill. Stang made a pit stop before the finish to destroy a QT bathroom. HA HA!!
ANNOUNCEMENTS: Alot going on. Read your newsletter and get involved.
COT: September is prostate cancer awareness month. It is not as advertised as breast cancer awareness month, but it kills just as many men. Get checked out.

Running … into trees

It was hot and humid, first day all year as such.
We ran.
Some ran 3.4 miles.
At least one ran 5.5 miles.
At least one ran into a tree (it’s not a laughing matter)
At least one hung out by the bank and smoked Marlboro Reds (rumor has it)

Get off my lawn!

Looks like we made it,

What’s the count?

Big crowd at Clydesdales this morning. The planned route was followed by some and others took their own path. Twister has a new pair of shoes. Apparently, they were out of all the men’s colors.

Some opted for the norm, some did not

Disclaimer included the option of rucking or running on your own as is sometimes the norm but meet us back at 0600. The other option was to join me in running to the high school track, or so we thought. We made our way to the the stadium and saw that all access points were locked so we utilized the parking lot instead of the track. It wasn’t as good but it worked.
WARMUP: We ran
THE THANG: Cool run around the lot.
Fast run around the lot.
Cool run followed by a fast 2 laps.
Cool run followed by a fast 3 laps.
Cool run followed by a fast 4 laps.
Switch directions to run a lap then up the hill and down.
Again, run a lap but now, NUR up the hill and down.
Run another lap then up up and down.
Run back to COT. ~4.5mi
MARY: Sprinkled throughout.
ANNOUNCEMENTS:
COT:

Clydesdales: Training like a Boss!

24 PAX arrived for a pre Charlotte Marathon run.
The disclaimer was given but no FNGs this day

The route was simple but flexible so PAX could push as hard as desired

we crossed over to Kingsley and down to back traffic circle ⭕️

we did laps between the circles which have slight hills on both ends

some PAX took the full around the block of Kingsley as an option as well

Of 24 PAX 11 were respectable

was great mumble chatter and some encouragement by running in close proximity of each other

thanks Greenwave for the opportunity 👏🏻💥👍🏻
