  • Bodos’ Boot

    A formidable 5 showed up to see what areas we would explore outside of Mary’s netherregions. This route was named after Bodos, given it’s shape, proximity to his abode, and his absence. Today was a reverso of stated routes.

  • No Gumbo For You…

    A lucky 13 arrived at Spider Run…or 14 if you count the absent-Q.

    Without Gumbo to warm our bones the decision was to do an out-and-back across the bridge – heading up stream.

    Marv took us out.

  • Cinco de Mary

    A formidable five arrived at Friday RAMM to burn off (some of) those holiday carbs….

    Routes are outlined below….

    4’s:  Complete Paxton/Ampthill loop and then head back to Mary via Grove… 

    5’s add on Hillcrest Loop  

    6’s extend into Windsor Farms in search of a 90-degree intersection.

    NMS: No takers on the 5m route, and two ruckers covered an undisclosed distance. Great 2nd F at Libby Market.

  • Bodos’ Horn Needs Nugenix

    A lucky 13 arrived at UR to exercise their legs, bodies, and right to vote.

    YHC could not stay for the COT given he branched off to go vote at his local district. I trust all others have exercised the same freedom.

    NMS: Bodos’ antique Volvo has a clear case of ED…

    Routes: We all started in the direction of the entrance to UR on River Road…

  • Ode to Kubota

    A sweet sixteen posted to Spider-run, plus-1 in absentia who was monitoring the timeliness of back-blast feeds from the comfort of the fart-sack.

    These historically-wide loops are posted below. Identical to the last time, however done in reverso. Which direction is reverso you ask?…it is simply the opposite direction from the last time…

  • Lucky 13

    A baker’s dozen showed for Spider Run on a semi-brisk and clear starry-skied morning. Marv stated that the 6 (ish)-route could have been the widest loop yet on Spider Run… you be the judge…

  • Gerry Meandering…

    A formidable 15 descended upon Mary to see what geriatric-friendly workout would be dispensed. After paying homage to the Esther Williams and the Land O Lakes butter lady, the pax partook in the following:

    • Run out and back stopping for burpees while partner performs rotation of dips, derkins,and incline merkins.
    • Triple check: balls to wall, WWIIs, Bernie out and run back
    • Descending Dora’s: LBC’s (300), Flutters (200 2-count), Merkins (100)
    • Courts: Bear Crawls, Crab Walks, Polar Bears, Crawl Bears…stopping in between the course for a few minutes of Mary (abs)
    • Finish with some burpees

    NMS: This is the most extensive BB YHC has composed in a long time given no one reads these. Why the change in heart you ask?, it is because Splinter guilted me into it.

    Kotters to SugarSock…please stick with it and don’t be a stranger

    Remember, nothing lasts but everything lingers

  • FTLOBD

    With a lethargic dissemination of the running routes, the pax proceeded to cover their chosen distances.

    To those I inadvertently added to the pax list…you’re welcome. To those I omitted, feedback is welcome

  • The Magnificent Seven…

    …posted to Mary expecting a geriatric friendly Q.  What they received was a reasonable beatdown that YHC will probably regret later…

    • COP:  B-Lickers were included
    • Doras (FULL):  Each person does the full suite of Doras – with a partner but on their own with the count.  Merkins, LBC’s, Dollys
    • Triple Check:  B-to-Wall, bear crawl to WWII’s, run out and bernie-back.
    • 7 minutes of Mary (Abs of course)
    • Suicides, bear crawls, crabwalks, Bernie-Bears (aka crawl bears)
    • Ring of Fire

    Not much mumble chatter which YHC will chalk off to a fair amount of intensity in the workout.

    Saab abides – when able.

  • Robert Bobla

    11 or so ran/walked/skipped through various distances ranging from 4 to 6 miles….

    NMS: Pickleball is still a thing. Apparently it is possible to have never picked up a pickle-paddle and still participate in the end of season tournament. Run – don’t walk – to Batteau for a Richmond-esque version of olympic-level competition.

    Swirly gets an anal-probe and gives the cologuard box spokesperson a deserved day off….
