The sun's up for the solstice and the planets are aligned (bit.ly/3QCYjac) so eight PAX headed into the woods at Vortex for a daytime trail run. Since it was still kinda' dark at 5:30, we warmed up with…
A warm up:
SSH, Imperials Walkers, Hillbillies, WMH, arm circles, seal claps, overhead claps
And then some shoulder work:
Bear crawl out, 15 dry docks, crab walk back, balls-to-the-wall; R&R
More shoulder work:
Arm circles again, Jack Webb ladder to 7 / 21, some superman rest time and 5 fig newtons
A touch of abs:
Flutters and Freddy Mercurys
Some leg work:
Step-ups on the tables, wall sits, and a lunge to the trailhead

Finally! 5:50 and it's getting light enough to see at least 80% of the roots and rocks. We dive in for a 3/4-mile run with the local fauna. A few pauses for squats, then Johnny Dramas, and somehow we ended up at the tennis courts. No matter; quick jog around and a bunny hop the hill to the playground and it's back to Vortex turf.

Another 5 fig newtons and bit of choose-your-own-adventure Mary wrapped it up.
