Aldi Laps
All Harrisburg BackblastsOctober 16th, 2019
We need the rain pretty badly, and YHC heard no complaints from the 8 HIM who showed up for a several wet laps on the Aldi loop in Harrisburg Town Center. Here’s how it happened:
Warm-up mile around HTC perimeter
The Thang
Run the Aldi loop as many times as time allows:
- Lap One – Financial Way – Main St – Hagler St …. run this fast
- Lap Two – Financial Way – Kee St – Hagler St … run this lap at a slower pace
Regroup for run back to Sports Junction
Moleskin / Announcements
Great job this morning, guys … YHC was thinking there may be a low turnout in the rain, but eight is great in the rain!
This loop was introduced to the Pax by Gamma back in the early days of @F3Harrisburg … sorry you missed Broga this morning, Gamma, but glad you got to run your old Aldi loop again.
Good luck with your first Half-Ironman in Wilmington this weekend, Flip Phone!
Turf Toe – I feel like we were running with a celebrity. You are all over the place these days promoting the Charlotte Marathon … and looking strong on the road this moning!
Wexler – not sure how many miles you put in beforehand, but you were strong on the loop this morning …. You’ll be ready for NYC.
Banjo Boy – thanks for running laps with me …. and for catching me up on the latest transportation news…looking forward to seeing the new Harrisburg train station take shape
Cowpens – you’re a runner! … keep it up.
Exit54 – you’re a lapper! … way to get after it.
