There’s an old Italian saying, “after the game, the king and the pawn go into the same box.” When our days are done, it doesn’t matter how much money we made or how fine our possessions were. We should use our time to get right, live right, and lead right so we can leave right. Stay humble, be kind, and love always. That’s the legacy that lasts beyond when we close the box on the game.
Aye!
WARMUP: Mosey to bottom of Kingsley hill. (a few things to get loose)
THE THANG: Run the “big loop” through neighborhood and return to bottom of hill.
Run to first road….back down. Run to second road….back down. Run to top…..back to swimming pool. Run to COT. We did do exercises at each stop including Burpees. ( In truth, was my birthday so didn’t write the backblast until 3/1…so forgot)

Slash and I had a bit of back-n-forth because the Greenway wasn’t really here when we were growing up and so much has changed in Fort Mill. Plus we both lamented Tony’s Pizza burning down.
