Thirteen Spider Runlings, including one that took the Slack bait and popped his cherry, met in the well lit bowl for this week’s highly anticipated Spider Run. After the noob put away his broga mat, instructions were offered. Initial instructions included obeying the no trespassing signs but those were quickly disregarded, so off we went for the lawless route.
The Route
- Through the bat cave to River / Huguenot / Cary intersection
- Go straight through the intersection, keeping the jewelry store on your right, across the wooden bridge, to virgin ground
- Continue across the train tracks, take first right, then first right, then back left across the bridge and back to lawful territory
- Left down Huguenot to Westham Station
- Right on Panorama, turn around when it starts going up hill
- Right on Westham Station
- Right on Old Bridge, turn around when you get to the fork in the road
- Right on Westham Station to the end where it turns right to South Ridge
- Wave at the hill and turn around
- Right on Old Bridge, across the metal bridge then continue to a left into second section of private property
- Continue until you can’t go any further than return back to Westham Station
- Back through the bat cave
- 5s and 6s do a loop around the lake, we all figured out the correct distances
Numbers, names, YHC took us out.
Announcements
- First Watch Deliverance workout tomorrow at 5am sharp at Huguenot Flatwater. 5am departure so get your boat in the water and ready to go before then. Ask a friend if you need a vessel.
Moleskin
I never knew we had such rebels in our crew (actually, it fits the M.O.). YHC drove the private routes last night and determined that some people may not appreciate crossing the clearly marked private property / no trespassing signs. I was wrong, so back to the pre-planned route. The virgin ground was beautiful.
YHC was shocked to see Last Call today. Clearly the allure of the flattest spider run ever, or perhaps it was the virgin reference, got him out of the sack to try out Spider Run today. Welcome back any time.
Ample mumblechatter this morning, culminating for me with Chippendale’s suggestion to try to catch the deer. YHC only had visions of boxing kangaroos and the negative outcomes that would prevail.
Enjoy a blessed day everyone.
Splinter out.
