Getting on track for 2021 at Redline
QIC: Mongoose
Date: 1/19/2021
PAX: Burlap, Toe Tag, Hedwig, Litterbox, Winklevos, Balco, Manscape, Total Recall, Mongoose
9 Pax noticed my return to Slack with the preblast I posted for today’s Redline. Don’t get excited Van Gogh, I’m still not going to be a regular user out of general principle (#curmudgeon).
The past couple of Redlines have been a combo of hills and track work, and I was tired of hills. So, the Pax were stuck on the track for the whole 45 minutes today.
Here’s how it went down:
400m warmup lap
400m dynamic stretching lap
Thang
400m at 5K pace with 200m recovery x 2
800m at 5k pace with 200m recovery x 2
Meet back at starting line
1600m at 10K pace with 200m recovery
400m at 5K pace with 200m recovery until the end
NMM
Some grumbling from the Pax about being stuck on the track for the whole time. Balco has the Q next week so look for some improvements in the plan
Hadn’t seen Toe Tag, Hedwig, or Litterbox in a while. Good to see them this morning
Appreciate the hard work the Pax put in. That workout had short recovery, which makes it challenging

Prayer Requests
None were spoken but I suspect there were some unspoken. I know I had some of those. Should probably speak them next time I post.
YHC took us out (for once I didn’t ask Burlap to do it) with a prayer of thanks, hope for peaceful political transition, and for stability for our country
