This is the first year running the Dam2Dam for this team, Heard from other PAX that have have ran this relay that it was a lot of fun, challenging, but a fun relay. So when registration open, YHC was online to get signed up. Sorry, not very creative, so we had a boring team name. Next step was to put a team together, so late November, started assembling a team of PAX.

Warm-up – Started out at 3:45am for a 1:40 min drive to starting point; 6:15am start time.

The Thang

The Mt.Regal leg – Serena started us off with a 5.4 miler

It’s All  Down Hill Until It’s Not leg – Orangeman with a 3.9 mile run

The Some Beech leg – YHC with 7 miles

The Windmill leg with Tiger running 3.8 miles.

Welcome to Saluda – Positraction spinning out to start his 5.1 mile leg

The Up Hill Finish w/Tesla knocking out 3.3 miles

Round one is complete and back to the lead off with Serena

The Lake Life leg – Serena pushing 6 miles

The Easy Like Sunday Morning leg with Orangeman easily knocking out 4.7 miles

Eat Mor Chicken leg – YHC wrapping up 5.3 miles

Are We There Yet was all Tiger said on this 7.8 mile leg

Fear the LORD is Positractions thoughts as he finished 7.6 miles with a big climb towards the end.

Tesla with the glory leg and a 3.35 Fast Finish.

 

The team was waiting on Tesla in the parking lot for his glory finish and a cold beer in hand. As he came in we carried his well deserved cold beer as we ran to finish line with him….

Team F3 Gashouse finished 15 minutes ahead of our target finish time. Great job to all runners! Looking forward to next year’s Dam2Dam race and running again with this group of guys.

 

Over and out,

Breaker
