Crazy 8s

Blazing fast, consistent hammering. This was the fastest workout of the year, may be two years. The in crowd showed up early and helped set up and warmed up. Dave D. (a.k.a. Alpha Male) had it like this: 9:30, 7:30, 7:05, 6:46, 6.51, 6:45. We can promise you that the group was nailing a sub 6 pace on a few of those diagonals. Hell, we practically walk 480 meters a mile and still keep it under 7 minute pace. We figure (480/1600) is 30%. If we are at 9 minute pace active recovery 30% a mile, that's 2 minutes and 42 seconds. That's 4.03 for the remaining 1120, or a 5.47 average. HAMMERING.

John S. (the S. is for Stick) stuck it. Michael paced the finish. Gary, David Bruce, and John Mears pushed the leaders. John O was supposed to stick to Carolyn, but decided to exercise the wild hair on his ass at the front. He brought Shana along for the ride. We had to put a leash on the Preacher. Jennifer, Nicole(a.k.a. Nikki), Mary Beth, Mary Anne & Mary Blythe all took turns riding in the front seat of the bus. Molly, Emi (Hot Moms) tried to get away but we wouldn't let them. Carolyn kept the engine humming. Jimmy S. wants to bust out so bad its killing him. Easy big boy, your day is coming. Katie H, Katie L., Slawek, Stephanie and Wendy staid in the pack. Kaffe and Harriott caught up with Holly (Her first day back since Running of the Brides).

5 miles, 500 reps
