A return out east

WARMUP: Jog
THE THANG: Jog and Run some more into Massey – and out and back was done by all and in a construction free zone no less. In Fort Mill, that’s saying something.

The route as into Massey via Neff to Dudley, to Felts Pkwy. To Kingsbottom which thankfully for YHC turns around and we went back the way we came.

Those with greater sense of adventure explored a few other streets. All were back for a 0600 COT.

MARY: open to all men. She was not there.
ANNOUNCEMENTS: took place
COT: is the 5th core principle

Thanks for the call, Time Machine. :eye:

Avoiding the Construction

The weather was 37 and rainy (in spite of Old Bays Steve) to start the day at Flight Plan. It was one of those days where the fartsack was extra inviting but the downpainment made was more than worth it.

We explored Baxter to avoid the construction happening on 160 which included lots of hill work. Here is the route:

Down Market Street to YMCA loop
Right on 6th Baxter
Left on Sutton
Right on Mills Lane to the dead end
Left on Gardenia
Right on Morris Hunt
Right on Downing
Left on Berkshire
Back to Richard’s Crossing
Right on Sutton
Back down Market Street
