7 PAX emerged from the #Fartsack this morning and were unfortunately reminded of two things: (1) Summer never ends in Columbia, South Carolina and (2) the PAX can always be training for the BRR. YHC dialed up a route this morning that featured three of the nastiest hills that can be found along Forest Drive. The PAX embraced the suck, and put in a full day’s work over a mere 45 minutes.
Conditions: Temperature irrelevant. All you need to know is humidity was 105%
The Thang:
Exit left out of parking lot of Trenholm Plaza and onto Forest Drive.
Left onto Green Hill Road for out and back (down/up hill) and left back onto Forest Drive.
Left onto Falcon Drive for out and out and back (down/up hill) and right back onto Forest Drive.
Left onto Rutland Court for out and out and back (down/up hill) and left back onto Forest Drive. #Crowdpleaser
Right back into parking lost of Trenholm Plaza.
Moleskin:
- Total mileage of 4.3 miles with elevation gain of 318 feet.
- Garnish is not a man, but a goat. Dude is an animal on hills.
- T-Claps to Strom who showed up a tad bit late, but eventually caught PAX and passed YHC on Rutland. #YoungLegs
- Great having Handy Manny join us. Hope the route did not scare him off.
