The Irmo Invasion

Neck Brace and Alter Boy brought a little #Strut with them to the #Brickpile with a tandem guest Q downtown on Saturday. By the end of the day and after a solid, upper-body-burning downPAINment, the 37 present (including 4 FNGs) all knew the Irmo contingent is for real. An additional 19 runners continued their Governor’s Cup training with 10 miles of LSD (Long Slow Distance).
