“It’s Hanukkah…Bitches,” was YHC mantra as I arrived with a whole five minutes to spare before giving the disclaimer. KnOTs headed their way while the real men headed to midfield.  The festival of Hanukkah celebrates the triumph of light over darkness and spirituality over materiality as well as the …
Conditions: 47 degrees. Feels like 42. Humidity 66%. Wind 11 mph from NNE. Last two Tuesdays have been rainy, putting the track out of commission. There also haven’t been any runners show up the last two Tuesdays, so YHC has done the Interval Workout from some free XC training guide …

After completing the 1st Grow Run and GRE-41 over the weekend, YHC was eager to get back out to the gloom. Thankfully, Hokie reached out to Bolt to HC since YHC needed stretching. Started with mirroring the KnOTters by walking backwards away from them. While they did their own thing, …
