• Oh you mean those degrees? •
[½ MIN READ]
Shawmont Running Club offers several inviting pluses every week: a challenging typical distance (14 miles), a mid-run threshold effort (Shawmont Avenue), and other like-minded crazy runners. ‘Degrees of appeal’ I call those pluses. The more degrees of appeal an effort has, the more inviting that effort is. Mild temperature the day of a run? Add one. Moderate humidity? Add one. Rain? Subtract one. ¶As much as I love SRC, other Saturday options can occasionally sport a few more degrees of appeal. A novel location? Add one. New people to meet? Add one. Later start? Add 3. (I just thought that out loud, didn’t I?) I support higher education for many people for multiple reasons. But I also have my own way of valuing higher degrees.
