9 of the speediest in the ‘Burg joined YHC for some final Extinction training with the big day coming up this Saturday.  The conditions at the start were likely similar to what the runners will be facing on challenge day.  The PAX was told to run or walk the Extinction route in whatever direction or pace that they wanted to.  The purpose was to let the PAX work on their strategies for the Challenge so the clock hit 0600 and off we went.

 

The PAX got in 4-6 laps on the route.  There was lots of different paces and strategies out there today but everyone kept moving.

–TClaps to Wexler and Flipphone for getting in some pre-work.  There was talk of them both topping the Strava leaderboard for the Extinction Mile but it’s not showing on the leaderboard so……..

–Espresso “had” to get in 6 laps and did so with ease.  Clueless was not far behind him.

–Ivy League and Fahrvernugen were pacing off each other which is a smart strategy.

–Talladega didn’t seem to break a sweat out there and looks like he could go the distance Saturday.

–DT didn’t slow down and pushed through to knock out 4 laps.

–Deadhead had a pace in mind from the start and stuck to it.  He is posting several times a week and looks to be getting stronger.
