7 runners and 2 ruckers departed at 0515.
runners route – Left on Munn, Left into FMHS campus. Most PAX stopped for 4 solid hill sprints up the hill that leads down to get vehicles down to the track/field. Continued through campus and popped out onto Harris St. Ran downhill from there to Harris St park where we veered Left onto the paved path toward WEP. At WEP, we did a couple more hill sprints and let the 6 join back with the pack. continued Left on 160 back to COT.
All runners got 3.7, some got closer to 5.
More thoroughbreds today than clydesdales. Maybe clydesdales are sensitive to rain?

WARMUP: pledge and run to WEP entrance…got in a few merkins and tree hugging while we waited for 6
THE THANG: we’re doing laps.
At the second swing bench you will stop for 10 merkins and 20 in cadence flutters. Run at a 1 mile pace to first swing bench and dial it back to 5k pace until you reach second bench…that’s pretty much about it.
What I noticed is I ran at the 1 mile faster pace most of the time so didn’t really follow instructions. Also ran low on 3 mile min so tried to have guys run at 3 swing benches but it was a little bit of a lost cause at the end. Headed back at 5:55.
MARY: old bay led some Mary at the end
ANNOUNCEMENTS: definitely
COT: for sho
