9 HIM posted for some Monday “speed play” also known as Fartlek.  YHC did a little research prior to my first speed training Q and learned that the Fartlek is supposed to be a free flowing, on the fly kind of workout.  So, YHC posted the location and informed the PAX to be ready to Fartlek.  I also found a whistle at the house and met the PAX in the gloom.

2Step had invited an FNG to a speed workout.  While he did ask on Slack how difficult it was going to be, YHC ensured him we would be goind back for the six on a regular basis, which we did.  FNG Travis hung in there like a champ!

The route took us from Harris Teeter on Ridge and Prosperity to a loop down Johnston Oehler, into Mallerd Creek Park, around the HS and back to JO and HT.  YHC picked out some landmarks for the PAX to sprint set distances.  The signal to go from mosey pace to sprint was the whistle blowing.  Said whistle was also the signal to return to mosey speed.  About every time YHC caught his breath or felt the PAX had sufficient rest, the whistle would blow.

One PAX was warned that his comment in the COT, “That was the most blow jobs I’ve ever received in the morning” would make it to the @heardatF3 Twitter Feed.  Other than this innuendo, the mumblechatter was fairly quiet.

Everyone did an bang up job pushing themselves.  It was a pleasure to lead you men.

 

Laser – OUT
