In the pre-dawn hours of Day 4 of the Southwake/Carpex QSwap week #1 – 5 #HIM gathered for a little extra credit run.  Flags were planted, Garmins turned on and we hit the sidewalk.   YHC was really pumped about this workout and our theme was “Smokin’ & Drinkin'”  More on that later.  5 completed about 1.5 miles of EC before the run.  We had two FNGs so the disclaimer was provided by YHC and we were off.
