Recount at U-Turn…18 PAX for 5-6 miles, humidity, and strong hill work
After a travel week out west, YHC was looking forward to a much needed return to the gloom to kick off Labor Day weekend with some quality miles at U-Turn. As the Wescott clown car traveled down Holly Springs Rd, Boy George and WebEx were seen getting some extra EC miles from Womble. As we approached the Starbuck’s parking lot, we were greeted to a large number of PAX loosening up. Race season is definitely here.
6 o’clock hit and started with some dynamic stretching as follows:
Warm Up:
Light jog around drive-thru side lot.
Circle up for Fazio Arm Circles (10F\10B), Michael Phelps, Air Squats x10, Butt Kickers x10, split group across the lot for carioca to the dumpster R over L and back L over R, High Knees to the dumpster, Butt Kickers back, Toe walks to the dumpster\Heel walks back. PAX circled back up for a 10 count of Figure-4 stretches to open up the hips.
The Workout: 5+ mile Scout Run with PAX picking up the six periodically throughout the route. PAX were seen pushing hard up Library Hill this morning. Strava later revealed that 7 of the Top 10 times for that segment of the route this year are owned by members of F3-SouthWake. Way to push, Men!
Announcements: 9/11 Stair Climb, BRR next week. Kudos to Norm for posting a 5-Pack.
Prayer: Continued prayers for CrabLegs, Prayers for Darby who lost his friend this week and to his friend’s family. Roger Roger’s neighbor’s son, Clay, who is undergoing treatment for a spinal cord tumor.
