Seven pax came together on this somewhat chilly morning for a hilly run. Three ran 3 miles as a pre-run to the regular run. Then six took off on the cruise. Here’s the route for the cruise:

– Right on Mallard Creek
– Left on Governor Hunt
– Left into parking lot where RRR started in December
– Up Claude Freeman
– Right on W. Mallard Creek Church Rd.
– Right on Senator Royal
– Right on David Taylor
– Left on Governor Hunt
– Right on Mallard Creek back to the school

For those of you who like visuals, click here to see the route.

YHC and Dingo did 8 miles total. Astrovan did around 3. The rest did about 4.25. Note, Grizzly biked next to us instead of running because of a sore foot.

I think overall it was a pretty good run.

Moleskin
– Thanks for joining us on the pre-run @Astrovan. You need to go ahead and sign up for the Wrightsville Beach marathon (or was it the half?).
– It was good to have you out there @Grizzly. Make sure you take off that kickstand.
– @Seeker is getting STRONG! Keep pushing brother. Pretty soon you will be ready for BRR. One other thing about @seeker…he indicated today that we wants to be able to run 7 miles by the summer. I think he can do that by March. Show up on Saturday brother.
– Thanks for running the full 8 with me @Dingo. Exactly two months from today all of this training will pay off.
– It was good to meet you @Massai. That was not the easiest route we’ve ever done and you tackled that last hill like a champ. I hope you are seeing what F3 is all about and I look forward to running with you again in the future.
– About that title…@pleasure was all over the place today. He started in front of us, would help pick up the six (although that makes him think of pick-up sticks), then took the crown from @Man Down on F3 Huntsman III by 4 seconds. That dude was flying up that hill. Impressive work brother.
– Dingo and YHC noted that it looked like there was even more glass on the ground where we park. We may need to consider finding a new site for these runs. Or, send an email to the following address and complain about the glass: Park-Admin@mecklenburgcountync.gov.
