Another 610 Stomp in the books…the 260th one to be exact-ish.  Strong showing with 14 PAX ready to run and test the limits of our middle-ages chassis.  This was the 3rd Summer Series 2-mile time trial, with several of us gunning to break our previous times, and perhaps set a new PAX record.     
Started with a warmup mosey on a Palm Dr with a pitstop COP to make sure all cylinders were firing, then moseyed to the Festival Grounds track for a 2-mile timed run/race.  Times were as follows:


High Rise 17:23

Einstein 16:07

Rudy 16:15

Bongo 16:37

Boo Boo 18:08

Belloq 18:34 *ran barefoot! 

Catfish 13:20 

Kuch 16:00

Snooze 18:54

Screwtop 15:10

Breadsticks 15:15

Tool 16:44

Sheetrock 13:45

Saban 17:00-ish *modified/planked


Mosey back to base via the “short route” after zero enthusiasm was directed towards the long route option.  Capped things off with LBC, Flutter Kicks, Dying Cockroach, followed by a minute of stretching and COT.   

 
NMM:

Good to see Sheetrock back in the gloom, running shirtless in case the ladies were out.  


Very little traction could be gained for the rename of Catfish to Barracuda or some other fast swimming fish.   

Saban ran, likely to defend his first-place title, even if it meant he could blow his third knee out. 


Belloq continues to be a beast.  He ran barefoot again as he deals with an injury…most would take a few weeks off from running, but not this guy.  

A new 2-mile record was set today, by over 1 minute.  T-claps to Catfish and Sheetrock for being the first to run sub-14:00 times! 


T-claps to Kuch for the mid-workout EH on a fellow runner at the track.

   
Einstein posted 2 days in a row!  Welcome and glad to have you in the mix.  


Boo Boo posted despite an iffy knee.  Way to stay committed and always good to see some PAX from the western parts pop in from time to time. 

 
Rudy implied that 20 flutter kicks were sufficient, no need to do 25 like everyone else.  YHC was glad to see the quarantine has not affected the rudyisms that we’ve all grown to enjoy.  

Good stuff, great way to start the day.
