  • Questionable Cause and Effect

    Why 11 pax you ask…because it’s one more.

    Biggest takeaway was TYA’s apparent hobby of identifying obscure patterns in society…such as identifying a relationship between degrees of prejudice and penis size.

    YHC is still not clear which comes first….

  • Carl Spackler is in the house…

    An elite 8 arrived toat Spider Run which included a surprise visit from my son – which absolutely made my day.

    Most had studied the routes which involved an out-and-back…crossing the Huguenot bridge and then heading West…

    Not surprisingly, Spackler (Saab Jr.) made it look easy while I worked to keep up…and I wouldn’t have it any other way.

  • Ode To Bodos

    A six-pack of gents arrived to work on their respective six packs.  YHC chose a modified version of Bodos’ “Old-Hundred” involving slightly shorter running intervals.  We ended with a solid triple-check.

    Good chatter was had throughout, with our newest pax member sometimes forgetting there was a workout to be had in between conversation…Welcome Beta…his name is spot-on.

  • Spider Solo…

    Not surprisingly, YHC was the only knucklehead who attempted a run this morning, yet managed to cover 5 miles throughout the well-brined roads of UR.

  • Cinco De Geratrico…

    Four Gents and one slightly tardy Gerry arrived for what YHC hopes was a sufficient beatdown….

    Shout-out to Applesauce who, upon seeing Saab on the Q sheet, conducted detailed research into obscene jokes to present to the PAX… YHC was both pleased, and a bit flattered by the reputation he has apparently developed.

  • Saab@60

    An elite eleven plus one sexagenarian graced the grounds of Mary to experience a true geriatric beatdown.  A variation of Old Hundred was administered along with a series of Court Crawls.  Along the way the PAX was treated to several jokes ranging from Dad Approved, to NSFW, to SO OFFENSIVE you would never share it with anyone – other than your grandmother….

    Thanks to the PAX for joining me in today’s workout and putting up with my nonsense.  As I advance in age I’m reminded that it is not so much about our personal milestones, but more about celebrating the milestones of our friends and loved ones that surround our lives.

    Kudos to Lab Rat for his move to the Meta death star next month…It was great to see you again buddy

  • Ode To Our Furry Friends

    A formidable 15 arrived to run/bike/walk. Out and back routes were administered with surprisingly no questions nor complaints…which YHC is prone to do.

    Please support Faceplant in his (infant) diaper drive, and you’ll be helping families with limited means to afford such necessities. He is also accepting monetary contributions…
