10 men set out in the humid gloom to get better. Here’s what you missed:

The Thang:
Mondays are hill days at Stumble, and believe it or not we have some good ones over near Old Woodlands. Specifically we have Wood Hill and Hampton Hill. Today we attacked Wood Hill from three different directions.
Basically, this is the Pelham Loop that we’ve done in the past. It gives us three opportunities to run to the top of Wood Hill, and that’s what we did. From AO, L on Olde Knight, R on Chambly, L on Queens Way, R on Old Woodlands, L on Garner’s Ferry, L on Pelham, R on Arborwood to top of hill and down, R on Pelham, R on Gills Creek Parkway, R on High Hill Drive, L on Promatory Point back down around other cul-de-sac, then down High Hill Drive, R on Gills Creek Parkway, R on Rosewood, R on Garner’s Ferry, R on Woodhill Circle, R on Garner’s Ferry, R on Olde Woodlands, L on Queens Way, R on Chambly, L on Olde Knight back to AO.
Moleskin:
Distance was somewhere between 5.25 and 5.3. Paces were good. Strong push and competition amongst various subgroups during the run, which you got to love to see. Routes like this should help when we are climbing in the Blue Ridge during the BRR.
