It was a bittersweet day at Tanglewood this morning as 13 Pax gathered in the gloom to put down the not-enough-loved Dawg Pound.\u00a0 While this was indeed the best AO in all of F3 Winston Salem, the Pax turnout was frequently meager, and Qs hard to obtain.\u00a0 Was it the location?\u00a0 The launch time?\u00a0 The format?\u00a0 I guess we’ll never know.\u00a0 After much consideration and consternation, we had to put it down.<\/p>\n
I had the privilege to lead the final workout here, so I took advantage and brought back and old “favorite” plan that would take us through much of the AO so we could say our teary-eyed goodbyes.\u00a0 A not-quite-record attendance enjoyed the workout known as #DawgPoundGolf.<\/p>\n
The idea is that we run from place to place, with 9 different “holes” where we performed exercises.\u00a0 Total distance is ~4.5 miles to the clubhouse and back, so away we went at 0630.\u00a0 Following the launch and some technical difficulties with the Qs watch (Q fail), we successfully completed the miles and all nine holes.\u00a0 The MC was strong and sentimental, and the Pax really put in a solid effort today to show their respect.\u00a0 I’ll spare you the details of the workout because it’s just too soon for me and I’m too emotional right now.\u00a0 Just know that it was sufficient.<\/p>\n
At the end, the father of Dawg Pound, #Starfish, took us out with grace befitting the moment.<\/p>\n
Dawg Pound is dead.\u00a0 Long live Dawg Pound.<\/p>\n
