A jogger heads to #Hustle

YHC couldn’t wait to get his grubby little paws on the Hustle Q when the AO first opened. And 7 (I think) PAX decided they should join YHC’s slow rear end for a little speed work. YHC took some good natured ribbing from Pacer who asked, “When are you going to post at Hustle?” His tone suggested a challenge, so YHC grinned slyly and replied, “I have the Q next Monday.” This one’s for you Pace-Dog!

Conditions

  • 49° – perfect weather for some sprints

Disclaimer

  • I am not a professional nor a runner. I am a jogger. And a bad one at that.

The Thang

  • Partner up with someone of like speed and take a one mile warm up at a conversational pace. Use that time to find out what is going on in your partner’s life. He needs you and you need him.

  • 2 x 800m at your 10K pace. 1 minute jog in between.

NakedMan Moleskin

  • Who knew jogger could #Hustle? Shoes make all the difference. Right, Spud? YHC finally got a real pair of running shoes and can attest to the validity of that statement.
  • Pacer likes going backward. Apparently he and NASCAR are at odds over terms of a contract and he was feeling rebellious. Of course, he’s a #SugarRay…
  • YHC thinks there was some #Mumblechatter, but it was mostly drowned out by the sound of my breathing.
  • No one seems to know what a 10K pace or a 5K pace is. The last 400m lap was done in ~ 1 minute. All were agreed that only Pacer could run a 5K at that pace.
  • Somewhere along the line YHC determined there were 7 PAX in attendance. Luckily we all knew each other. YHC needs a Q101 refresher…
  • We ran four miles total today and were again reminded that not all miles are created equal. Those four miles were much different than a four mile run and different from the miles Alpo served up last week. Come try out some #Hustle miles. It will make you a better #Runner.

Aye!

Jogger, er, Juggar out!
