The weather continues to be amazing this week as we came out to ruck and run to celebrate Wild Thing’s 70th birthday. Eight posted to Rutland on this morning as the 3 runners and 5 ruckers went out into the community.
Opus, BAM!, and YHC decided to take the traditional Rutland/Cool Spring Forest/Cool Spring North up and back route. Maybe 1/4 mile in, YHC noticed a man and woman walking towards them. YHC then recognized the older man who pointed at YHC and said “I need you.” Although YHC does not believe the man has ever posted to F3, for the sake of this story, he will be known as “Tree Man” which is a nickname that he has been known by to many local high school track and cross country runners. When someone says at 5:35 AM “I need you”, what goes through your mind. As it turns out, he needed help with an event he was in charge of and it included YHC taking a day off of work. YHC now knows if he will accept the offer and will let him know the decision the next time the runners happen to pass the Tree Man and his wife.
Once YHC caught up to the runners, the conversation turned to local weather personality. YHC ran a little over 4 miles. Opus and BAM! went a little further while YHC was in conversation.
