Warm-Up: PAX stretched on their own before setting off.
The Thang:
YHC went to UNC for six years, earning both a Bachelor’s in Business Administration and a teaching license for Middle Grades Mathematics. Today’s idea was simple, we were going to run through campus and around Chapel Hill to a variety of spots that were significant for YHC during his time at UNC.
Turn right out of Hooker Fields and an almost immediate right on Country Club and another right on Ridge Rd. Take a left on the brick side walk that runs between Bosh and the old intramural field.
Stop 1 – Koury (formerly Ehringhaus South), YHC lived here his freshman and sophomore year. 10 burpees
Resume running down Skipper Bowles Dr. and a right on Kenan Dr. Up the hill and around the back of Kenan-Flagler.
Stop 2 – Kenan-Flagler Business School, little known fact: YHC did not go to school to be a teacher, but originally wanted to go into sports marketing. Loved that the b school did not have class on Friday. 10 more burpees
Take a right onto Mason Farm Rd, left on Purefoy, Left on Howell St., and then a left into 201 Howell St.
Stop 3 – 201 Howell St, YHC lived here his senior of college. 10 more burpees
Continue on Howell St and then hang a right on Columbia by Merritts. Long uphill all the way to Cameron Ave.
Stop 4 – Peabody Hall, Peabody is the home for the school of Education. YHC went back to school for 2 more years to get his teaching license.
Continue down Columbia and keep left at the fork by the Firestation. Left on Longview and an immediate right on Pritchard and down the steep hill. Right on Umstead Drive
Stop 5 – 304 Umstead Dr. Shake It’s last residence in Chapel Hill. Still uses the driveway for free parking on game days.
Continue down Umstead and straight across MLK onto Hillsborough. Up the long hill and follow the road all the way until it dead ends at South Rd. Left onto South and then finish strong all the way to the AO.
Total: Depending on which GPS you looked at we did about 6.3 miles and 50 burpees
COT:
YHC had a great time running and fellowshipping with Juco and Foghorn Leghorn. Great runners, better people.
