Let’s Go Treasure Hunting

/in /QIC:
PAX: , , ,

YHC decided to take the PAX up and around Ting Park this morning and hunt for some “treasure” along the way.  Over the past 3 weeks I’ve found 2-$20 bills, a quarter, and a few pennies while running.  I had found a baseball in the Ting Park parking lot running for some EC the day prior and I’ve also found a couple of tennis balls at Ting in the upper backside parking lot near the tennis courts over the past month or so.  I run through Ting Park at least 2-3 times a week and afterwards I’ll usually pass the front of my neighborhood before jumping on the Crossways route off of Main St and I’ll toss the tennis ball or baseball at the front of my neighborhood and retrieve it later in the morning while walking my dog.  We didn’t find anything at Ting Park today but YHC found a penny on the way there and then @Cupid and I found a couple of pennies in the Womble parking lot post-workout.  I’m always looking for 2 things while running: treasure and the infamous white albino deer.

FNGs: None

Warm Up: 10x Good Mornings, 10x Imperial Walkers, 10x Hillbillies, 10x Daisy Pickers

The Workout: 6mi run leaving Womble, L on Stinson, R on Grigsby, L on Holly Springs Rd, R on Main St, L at Ting Park (run around the entire parking lot, R on Main St, followed Main St all the way up to 55 before turning around, R on Oak St, R on Grigsby, L on Stinson with a hard sprint back to Womble
