Not really a 5K, Shake Weights and Thighmasters
All East Charlotte BackblastsAugust 11th, 2020
0515 YHC arrives at the HT
0516 YHC sees that 2 Pax got there early and are conversing
0517 One of the Pax (I think the Site Q) decides he is “too good” to run with the group and goes off on his own. Some lame excuse about about needing more miles….
0520 Flags are planted, YHC “rolls” his hammies until the Pax arrive
0525 8 Pax arrive, (some with lights and/or bright shirts, some not*). *We all need to get better at wearing protective clothing when running. NOT doing this is a slap in the face to all of our F3 brothers who have been injured and/or killed in running accidents over the years. Most recently, last month in Harrisburg. Please try to get better at this.
0529 Lousy disclaimer given
0530 We run the “not really a” 5k route (2.4miles??) (51 to CVS, L on Wilgrove Mint Hill Road, L on Nelson, L on Sunset, R on 51 back home) …at your own pace. YHC is still suffering from a leg injury.
When we returned to Home Base we took a walking lap around the HT parking lot and did a myriad of stretches at each corner. #mumblechatter was heard by the peanut gallery…something about Jane Fonda videos, shake weights and thigh-masters.

-nice morning, good run, good group, legs still sore
-We all need to remember Bright Shirts and Lights, nuff said!
-Our Site Q has written a “running policy” to incorporate the above but I guess he was too busy chasing rabbits this morning to enlighten us with it or to post it on slack. Maybe next time? Hopefully not after someone in our group gets hit by a car!!!
-Always an honor to lead, AYE! SYITG!
