The Haynes was successfully run by 14 pax in this morning’s gloriously sticky, hot, gloom. 14 is a special number for this group because it represents the largest gathering of pax to ever attend. We have hit 13 several time but 14 has been very illusive. Thanks to all the men from out of town who came to run our AMRAP.
YHC made it to the AO about 30 minutes ahead of time to get the agility ladder laid out and pinned down. The pax started to roll in one at a time. At 5AM, YHC took the 12 pax gathered for a quick recon lap around the park (mainly as warm up and this would Keep YHC from having to explain everything over and over again)
As we were starting the recon lap, man number 13 (Putz) pulled up fashionably late. After the recon lap, it was 7minutes after 5AM so the pax were turned loose to start the fun. Just as the pax were leaving the parking lot, man number 14 (Belding) was coming in hot. Belding knows the course, no need for explanation, so YHC took off to enjoy the morning gloom with the rest of the men. The Rooster pax are apparently not the most punctual group. Urkel showed up at 6.
