8 pax posted for their weekly dose of #Cruise.

The Thang:

1. Two versions of the HC 5K route; standard and one with a chaser on both ends.
2. Group looking for more distance and faster pace went out main entrance of schools and added the Fairvista loop on both ends and another group looking for less distance and slower pace did the std 5K route.  Longer route was 5.12 and shorter route was shorter.

The Naked Moleskin:

1. From what I could tell, the morning started with a warranty service call from Chavez to his MSFT Band watch baby daddy.
2. After making sure all pax had a distance & pace group that suited them, we took off.  Wild Turkey came in Wild Hot so we circled for him and then launched.
3. El Guapo HC’ed for the BRR yesterday and Chowder texted out to our BRR HC group that today was the day to start training.  Clearly not many listened, but good ol El Guapo was true to his word and met the commitment of “we will train you if you will come to training” – and posted for a cold weather workout which he hates.  T-claps to him.  When asked how long had it been he asked for the preferred unit of measure; months since last post or pounds put on since last post.
4. The #BRRHC was aggressively applied to a certain Wild Turkey but he resisted our #JediMindTricks and plans to hold fast to the Bourbon run in lieu of BRR.  Not doing a #CSAUP b/c you are doing a different #CSAUP?  Approved.
5. Chavez was also on the receiving end of a #BRRHC and came out of the closet and shared that he is a “no until he is a yes at which point it might be too late and will be a no but understands and is ok with it.”  Can’t argue with a guy saying no for all the right reasons.  Approved.
6. We delayed launch a minute or two while hoping our 1/8 ton brother would show.  You were missed brother.
7. Someone mentioned to me the other day that two other good options for running workouts that offer options for shorter and slower are Monday Skywalker, Wed Rolling Stone, and Saturday Tradition.
