No Mercy Mile (Part Deux)

4 PAX answered the call this morning, took the DRP, and got better because of it. 

It’s that time of year again; warm breezes from the south, kidney stones for Meat Sweats, and the No Mercy Mile for the Pax.  Unlike two years ago when the Pax went into overtime to complete the No Mercy Mile, this year’s Pax called for mercy after 3-ish laps.  It was a solid effort by all including those who helped pick up the six.

QIC: Meat Sweats

The Pax: Chitwood, Witch Doctor, Mandela, and Schlitz, joined by ruckers Napalm and Ostertag, and runners Squirrel, Poacher and Snake.  Flying Tomato and Bourne arrived early, ran, and left early.

Warm Up:  Good Mornings, Arm Circles, Daisy Pickers, Imperial Walkers, Finkle Swings, and Floor Sweepers.  Box Trot one lap, walk one lap for instructions.
