Hello October! While I’m sure we were all hoping that September would take the crap weather with it when it left…it was not to be. Coach Al, however, came through in fine fashion with a pseudo-flat mile route to compensate for the less than flat “track” workout that we did on Bridle Path on Tuesday. Way to coach, Al!!
