Fun times on RUNnymede @ #RedLine

PAX:

HitMan; Manscape (WD); The Vig; Glazer; Winklevoss; Sac (WB); Zuck (QIC)

THAT THANG:

YHC received an “SOS” from @Tuco at about 7:40PM on Monday seeking a #SubstiQ for Tuesday’s #RedLine.  Unsure of YHC’s own desire to redline, but eager to help-a-brother-out… I looked into the bag of tricks… found two options… and decided at 0526 on Tuesday which option the pax would get.

7 pax got Plan A – a trip to RUNnymede – appropriately named for a Redline visit, and it went something like this…

  • SSH (in cadence) in Y parking lot
  • Mosey to corner of NW/Reynolda – Hillbillys ; Abe Vigodas (IC)
  • Mosey to front of Bryson Gym – Imperial Walkers; Whirly w/ Clap (IC)
  • Mosey to Runnymede – High Knees; Butt-Kickers; Apollo Creed L/R; Power Skips

 

  • From bottom of Runnymede – Backpedal to Springdale (watch for cars and potholes)
    • OMAHA! Just run (forward) to Springdale!  [Back-pedaling an awful idea]

 

  • Total initial mosey = ~1.2mi

[At any point, when waiting on six, can lassie or mountain climb]

 

  • 1 (small) loop around Runnymede/Springdale (.25mi+)
  • 2 (small) loops around Runnymede/Springdale (.25mi each) (.5+ total)
  • Mosey to bottom

 

  • 1 (middle) loop around Runnymede/Springdale/Hawthorne (.6mi+)
  • 2 (middle) loops around Runnymede/Springdale/Hawthorne (.6mi each) (1.2 total)

 

  • 1 (big) loop around Runnymede/Hawthorne (.8mi+)
  • 2 (big) loops around Runnymede/Hawthorne (.8mi each) (1.6 total)

 

  • Mosey to Hawthorne/Northwest

 

  • Sprint down Reynolda to front of Bryson Gym (.25mi)
  • Finish strong from Bryson Gym back to Y Parking lot (via Northest>Hawthorne>Glade>Sunset) (.65mi+)
  • FIN!

 

  • Total Mileage: ~4.4mi

COT:

YHC took the pax out… thanking Him for the pax… seeking His wisdom to use F3 to be the men He wants us to be…

NMM:

  • Not much mumbelchatter – other than some mutterings about the mountain climbers when ‘resting’ (a la #Flatline)
  • Strong work by the pax!
  • Running backwards up RUNnymede is a bad idea for multiple reasons including: (A) potholes, (B) it’s a lot longer than you think, and (C) potholes.
  • Always an honor to lead!

ANNOUNCEMENTS:

  • Good luck to the pax running in the Time Laps this weekend!!!

    The Hills have Ayes

    Redline. It seems like a simple concept. Push yourself a little bit to try and improve your performance. Many of the Redline workouts YHC has attended have been largely done on the track. YHC gets crushed during these workouts and is often passed by everyone else multiple times when the distance exceeds 1/2 a lap….
