YHC rolled up to the parking lot of Rutland Clubhouse, to find it empty…at first, then Marco Polo rolled up and Mr. Holland came in hot to get this early morning run in on this cold morning. As we are working on pace this morning we started a couple of weeks ago at a 10 min/mile pace and this morning 9 min – 36 sec mile was the average, starting slow then getting to a comfortably – uncomfortable pace for a total of 4.74 miles. We did the Taylor farm loop with the BoJangle’s return loop added for a nice route. As we were going over the train tracks we smelled smoke from a cigarette, then ran past a dead dear…can’t describe that smell, then went by some construction sites, dumpster smell, porta John…well you get the picture. Much mumble chatter this morning and super-glad this was not a solo run, rather a fun time continuing conversations on family, fitness and friendships.
We get back to the clubhouse, walk a lap to cool down circle up for namerama, numberama and Marco Polo took us out.
