14 men ventured into the gloom at #SwampFox to meet Snuggles and his bag o’ tricks for a Halloween workout sans yours truly out with a chronically sore hamstring (sore hamstrings must be contagious…14?). The word on the street though is that Snuggles showed up dressed either as a pumpkin or a clown as it …

A strong 13 faithful came out in this last week of running completely in the dark. The pace was brisk and the hills were steep. The dreaded Mt. Everest of all Columbia hills (Atascadero Drive) was on the slate for today. The route had quite a few turns. Congrats to all for not getting lost. …
Was it the 5th alarm clock that actually woke him up or his M clocking him that got him out of the Fartsack? Regardless, it was good having Pebbles return to our midst for a midweek run. 8 pax journeyed into the gloom for a 4 mile run. Conditions: 53 degrees and 93% humidity The …
A band of 30 pax gathered in the gloom for a Double-Q by Small Mouth and Drive By. After risking waking the neighbors on Adger and Devereaux with exuberant cadence calling, it was time to knock out some fun on the hills on Berkley and Adger. The second Indian run of the morning brought out …

30 men gathered this morning in the misty gloom of Irmo for their regularly scheduled beat down. When the QIC gathered the pax into a pre-workout BOM and prayed for the wisdom to know our limits and the will to push them, mumblechatter broke out that this might be a sign of foreboding. Alas, the …
20 pax moved into the gloom and endured a workout better suited for Rocky than Adrian. Adrian is named after a meek and mild, pencil-necked, geek-looking woman who remained at Rocky’s side through thick and thin (at least through the first four movies). Our Adrian may need to be renamed as the workout at #SwampFox …
Conditions: 51 degree. 85% Humidity. 11 PAX and 1FNG arrived at #Thunder to survive through the darkness.
