Let’s run some hills!

16 or so PAX emerged from the gloom looking for some mileage and were greeted by gorgeous weather. YHC picked up the Q at the last minute and leaned on a route from earlier in the year to add some hills to the RAMM diet this week in honor of the upcoming BRR.

The route is mapped here: https://onthegomap.com/?m=r&u=mi&w%5B%5D=Routes+may+not+be+suitable+for+public+use.&c%5B%5D=Route+data+%C2%A92023+On+The+Go+Map%2C+OpenStreetMap+Contributors&d=8090&f=6f235d0b33&n=1&dm=1&context=share&r2=ixeb7zgWvEc1l2s1l3i1x2o1f3o1f3s1j3u1r3c1j2Ml18FMj1o1f349w1v3m1Z3_1%7E3u1p34Be1l2o1h3c1j2U%7E1u2t5W4h8_3d8w3z7NFl4f3j5j4z3h2v2X2%7E1TJ7f1D6X1p4p3DBf2x1f1X1LLx1X2l8r6x2Lp2l1n1p1j4X3h1LH1F0Z1IRUFK58f2u28o1GCu7y5C6c1Gm24W3Gu2g2g5k4k1W2Y2s3g2c2W4w3KCQs2GCUSW1Y1IUEy16m12G2q1Li2f1q1b1g1BAj2m152X16PBn1JZ1F7Eb1m2X4d3JHCp10p2VX2b1Vh2r1JJTVt1f2X1X3Dt2Ht1X1r1Vj17NFv1z21h3Ul2OY1m2j1w1NOHUDo19o1Lm4f1s2x1_3z1_39Od1s2d7qF5Y16SAEm2_1a1Sa3k2a2n4W4j8m2d5W1b227y1z3q2l6Qz1CPMVSRW1o2Y1w2K_1Ma2Cy1Oo1_1e1S0y11u1Ns1f1q1n2s4w3c1l28Da1Gi2W1Y3c2oDu944t2u5TW2b1k2n1i3d1m23Ct1q3z1W4l1a3v1w33An1g3T_1Lm1b1k2t1s3r1k3n1g3n1g3h1y2r1m3Lm1
