10 of Harrisburg’s toughest men and one pretty darn tough dog arrived in the brisk gloom for some running and little pain along the way.  The route for this nice stroll with a few burpees looked a little like this…

The Thang:

• run down Center Pl Dr.
• right on Harrisburg Plaza
• left on Carl Parmer Dr. and cross over Roberta Road
• run down Roberta Road and make a left onto Rocky River Crossing Road
• take Rocky River Crossing Road
• Stop at every intersection and do 5 burpees
• continue said until reaching Morehead Rd.
• circle back to pick up and finish with the six
• return on the same route to the pool.
• stop at the pool and do five more burpees thanks to Turf Toe (or was it Flip Phone…. They both look the same that time of the morn)
• right on Rocky River
• left on Carl Palmer
• Right on Tim Hagler
• Right on Main Street to home base
• joined in on some last minute #lowdollies and #masontwists with Warrior One.

Moleskin:

1. Props to all that got out of their warm #fartsack into the 20 degree weather. By my counting skills under the influence of burpees it was 14 stops for 70 burpees. Total mileage was 4.5 miles according to @mapmyrun
2. Impressive feat by @SSMinnow and @Hongkongphooey. They led the pack with what seemed like ease.
3. Nice of @SoloCup and @Swami to join in. Glad to see Solo is feeling better.
4. Strong finish at the end with a jail break by Hongkongphooey and The Magnificent. I’m not sure who won, but considering the age difference I give it to Phooey.
5. @SSMinnow informed me he may drop the Minnow. Wait… there has to be rules of conduct, directives, board hearings, maybe even a conference or convergence for things like that even if you are the fastest person. So for now guess he will remain @SSMinnow. @BanjoBoy said something too, but when he reaches puberty we can put it on here.
6. It was an honor to lead my first Q I was worried no one would show. I was humbled by the turnout.

Announcements:

1. Still a few spots left to fill for getting a different Q everyday in January.
2. Hickory Ridge Boot Camp Thursday.  2 workout choices for Friday,  Harrisburg Iron and
3. Blue Ridge Relay signups. I was told its $150 for a nine man team and $110 for the team or should that be reversed.
4. January 30, 2016 Dread (F3 Founder) will be at Veterans Park at 0700 for a beatdown. Should be a good time
5. Sign up for Harrisburg 5K. It will be on April 6, 2016. F3 needs to have a strong presence. If you are interested in sponsoring it please see @hongkongphooey.
