12 PAX showed up in ridiculous humidity to conquer some hills. The BRR is only one month away and that had some PAX either motivated or scared. But, they were there and that is the first step to getting stronger. We decided to explore the surrounding area and confirm if Chapel Hill is aptly named. It is.

Warmup:

SSH, Imperial Walker with squats, Willie Mays Hayes, Windmills, Mountain Climbers

The Thang:

Mosey to the bottom of Raleigh Rd (54). Run to the top (about .5 mile) and Freddie Mercuries and Heels to Heaven until everyone gets there.

Mosey to the bottom of Laurel Hill. Run to the top (.85 mile) and flutter kicks until everyone gets there.

Mosey to the bottom of Tarheel Warrior Mountain. Run to the top (1/10 mile) and jog back down. Repeat 3 more times.

Return to start.

Seems simple and easy but all in all we covered 4 miles and gained 620 feet in elevation in one hour. Add in the humidity and this was no walk in the park. Props to the PAX for posting even when most knew ahead of time that hills were the theme of the day.  No one will claim hill repeats as a fun way to start the day but we are all stronger for having posted and pushed through and for that I am thankful to have the PAX motivate me to push through myself.
