4th installment of the #HiFi Quarterly Mile Test was greeted by 20 cheerful PAX as we headed onto the track in the Gloom.  Not to be outdone by the conjunction of Venus and Jupiter (not Uranus Chong-Li),  we decided to put up some good numbers for the mile.

Before we get into the workout and the results, a few T-claps for two that have made great strides through hard work at #HiFidelity and F3-Raleigh.
  • King David has dramatically improved shaving 28 secs off of his Mile time in six months.  He started at 6:18 in February, and posted a 5:46/mile on Tuesday, finishing second of the group.  AYE!  That former running back has some endurance in those legs…
  • Countrywide has not been a regular at HiFidelity (as he says “I hate to run”), but his work at F3 has helped him cut his mile time from 8:15 to 7:30 in 6 months.  Keep up the great work brother and continue to watch the times improve and the running will get easier.
The Thang
