Eleven of this area’s finest gentlemen gathered in the near daylight to howl at the supermoon. A mysterious waist lamp bounced in the distance and when he arrived, off the PAX went for:
The Route
– Traverse by the ball field, left on College, right on Lakewood
– 4s take a right on Wood
– 5s take a right on Old Oak then right on Beachwood and left on Wood
– 6s take a right on Westham, right on Hillsdale, left on Old Oak, right on Beachwood
– Everyone take a right on Baldwin and meander up Horsepen and convene at Waveny
Intervals were next, and no shit, everyone was excited about them today. By my watch, it had been since November we iteratively tackled these near west end hills. Three times up Waveny, 1 minute up, 1:45 down. 80% or so for those tracking.
Short jaunt up Horsepen, stopping at Shrewsbury. One interval of 100% up to the next intersection, waving at Toga’s former abode.
Left on Ridge Top for a slow saunter to the base of Chandler. Three times up Chandler at 80%, with the final iteration taking a hard right up Gardiner.
Everyone wandered back to the flag via the well lit path and Campus drive.
Huddle up for names, numbers, golf wave to Keymaster before YHC took us out.
Moleskin
Not that anyone is counting; however, today’s attendance was likely outside one standard deviation from the Spider Run recent mean. Full appreciation to the eleven that shook off the fear of the Splinterval Sack and posted for this most recent variation.
If there is a single F3 workout YHC tries not to miss, this is the one. Thanks to all who post and lead for making this one of my highlights of the week.
Go rest Gomer. Splinter out.

Nice Q Splinter. Good seeing you all. Welcome back Sippy.
Rest?
I’m ready. Let’s go !
Don’t love em while I’m doing them, but sure feels good when they are done. Spintervals, baby! Great to see everyone, but definitely good to see Sip out there!
Working into the early morning hours conspired to having me miss the Spintervals. As it turns out, this may have been the right choice.
