U Can Taper These

The BackBlast:

Intro:

Yeah the whole taper idea doesn’t work well with this group.  Taper week becomes taper day.  We got a 10 yard head start on Chalet and were off…

The Thang:

Out to Colville to right on Twilford to culdesac.  COP: SSH, IW, merkins.  Back our Twilford to right on Museum Dr to right on Lockley to right on Hungerford.  Hit culdesac for more a merkin/table exercise sandwich.  Hungerford to right on Museum to and thru Mint Museum parking lot.  Pause for some Travoltas each side.  Out the lot to right on Randolph to right on Meadowbook Rd…  Flyby from RedFox, Dover, Paula, SpookyJon… down Meadowbrook to up Blue’s hill.  Stop in the middle and then to the top.  Right on Wendover, right on Vernon, re-mosey some of the Vernon hill, right on Providence back to home.  Fin.

Naked Man Moleskin:

This was not a taper-er.  5 miles with Blue’s hill and some Vernon love.  This was also not a strong example of pace.  YHC led from near front for first half but that long Randolph stretch was crushing.  The hill was a struggle and appreciate the hares making some excellent executive decisions at the top… hit some culdesacs early that could be first timers for the ring runners.  All right turns on the day so play that AltJ song Left Hand Free… much talk of KOTQC- a great change of pace- well done organizers… Takeout by Disney.  Movie quality stuff… Good to see everyone out there and well done filling the next few Qs.  Ring Run will be well represented on the hills this weekend
