August 31st, 2025. I had a day to myself today while Hayley visited her family in Syracuse with the kids. Labor Day holiday tomorrow, not many chores to do at home, so the question is: what Challenge courses am I fitting in on the penultimate day of the 2025 FLRC Challenge?
I considered a few possibilities — hamster-wheeling on the Groton High School track for 8 or 9 hours to try to nab that Sweet 1600 sign from Patrick Milano; slogging through some absurd quantity of Varna humps on the road to win the Triple Hump sign; keeping it short and going for best average at Cayuga Cliffs; or making amends for my opening day Tough Tarmac DNF on April 19th.
