5/5/5 for the 2018 Amblversary

“Ain’t no party like an #Amble party cause and #Amble party don’t stop”

16 PAX posted to celebrate F3 Columbia’s original running AO‘s 5-year Anniversary.  The plan was for each PAX to run either a 5k or 5m in honor of 5-years. Of those in attendance it’s important to mention we had two Original Gangsters, Robber & Fountainhead on the run.  Additionally, as we headed back, there was a fly-by from Subprime (#Rambler) who is also OG.

Conditions – 71 with 90% humidity.  Yes, it sucked.

The Thang:

Cross Millwood to Bellwood

Left onto Amherst

Right on Blossom Street

Enjoy the ride downhill

At Saluda (Walgreens) those wanting a 5k turned and ran the reverse path back to Dreher

Those wanting a 5m run continued on Blossom

Up the hill, down the hill and about-face at Assembly for the return trip

As we passed the hills (Sumter, Bull, Pickens, Henderson & Barnwell) we crossed paths with several #Ramblers

Continue on the reverse path to Dreher

At the end, the last PAX was a little behind so YHC demanded all PAX get off their six, run to the six and jog in with him –  #brotherhood

COT/BOM – YHC & Greenpeace
