It felt like a warm 20 degrees…

3 PAX posted for a 3-ish mile ruck through downtown Phoenixville – brisk pace, crisp air, and beautiful start to the morning.  Given the cool temperatures…rounding up to 20 degrees would be generous…we hypothesized a small, but mighty showing for the beatdown…

 

…but we were wrong.  11 PAX strong including 1 FNG (welcome Abacas) dominated the Blast Furnace.  Good chatter around the feature article about Dial-Up in Schuykill Living Magazine and his attempt to meaningfully increase the average age of our PAX.  I (Boyant) on the Q with Hops sharing the story of Picasso (F3 Summerville, and close out from Spike.
