7 pax vaulted the #FS and showed up to take their speed medicine like men.  Very few whimpered.

The Thang:

1. Warmup lap around rabbit hole, HCES bus lot, to base of Street St hill.  Yes, Street St.
2. 3 x 1 mi Firehouse Loops @ 5K race pace with recovery between each as pax muster at start line.
3. Short cool down jog back to cars.
4. Ended up with roughly 4.5 miles of running.

The Naked Moleskin:

1. Decent format b/c it allows each guy to run his pace but still spend some time with the group.
2. Created a new Strava segment for the Firehouse Loop so we can each track our performance against it.  Check it out here: https://www.strava.com/segments/11209226
3. Prior to starting I asked a #WeightVested @Derby if he was sure he wanted to wear that thing – it was a running workout after all.  To his credit he suffered through one lap with it….
4. Great to see El Guapo out for his second running post since HC’ing for BRR.  He is not a runner and does not have a recent running background but he has plans for 2016.  You need to come out and see what his running is like now so that you can appreciate what he looks like on Sept 9th.
