Little League travels far from home to grace Never Black Sno Cones…or whatever with his presence. What better way for an out of towner to introduce himself than with an out of town workout, modeled on YHC’s experience with Metro workouts.

Options A & B were provided (both involved well over 3 miles of running). A, the flatter, but longer option, was chosen. Essentially the goal was for everyone to run at least 4 miles and I believe nearly everyone succeeded in that, or at the very least, pushed it to the edge of their comfort zone, which is what this workout was all about. And while there was a lot of running (forward and backwards) involved, there were more exercises than I can list here performed as well.

I was incredibly impressed by the effort shown by all, especially those who might not consider themselves “runners”. If you are one of those PAX, I would encourage you to push yourself to get out to a running AO. You have more in you than you think. Even if you start with 2 or 3 miles slow, that’s more than 90% of the population. I can’t think of a better feeling than when you finish a run that you didn’t think you could do. That’s always my motivation to try new running challenges.

GD soapbox moment over.
