14 runners took about a dozen different routes around my beloved UR campus. Route started up Richmond Way past Wood Hall where Gomer and I lived in 89/90. Then we ran by the football Stadium that did not exist back then and wrapped around the Stadium & went past the Robins Center where we saw us beat Kenny Anderson and Georgia Tech back in Dec 1990. A downed power line/tree work on College Road put some of us on the trail to the Greek Theatre while others ignored safety instructions from the police and squeezed by. I think I saw the Connells in the Greek Theatre back then but that is hazy. More hazy than the Beast Light we drank. Many of us ended up back on the intended route down Crenshaw, past the great Apartment 1205 (numbered something else now), and then down to River Road and back up the bat cave (which also did not exist back then). From there, some went left through the female side of campus (not true anymore), some went straight to the Commons, many did a lap or two around the lake and everyone made it back on time. Campus looked great as usual. More hilly then I remember.
Prayers for Sippy and his surgery next Monday.
Westhoe takeover continues. Remember to set your alarms! Homegrown Half/10K/5K this Saturday. Order your shirts and/or hats for the 10K. And we need more Pickleball Tourney signups.
