  • Mt. Crumpit

    Forgot to write the Backblast until 2nd F after WTH with Mr Roger.

    The Currahee crew went in search of the happy EF Grinch’s cave on top of Mt Crumpit. Aka. Glen Eagles cult de sacs.

    5+ miles of hills.. but the cave was found and no man was left behind.

    Merry Christmas you all.

  • Lake Loreine and where ever the Ruckers went

    Westhoe continues to grow and we are make use of every AO we can. Currahee has transformed from a couple dedicated runners to a full on Run/Ruck AO. Today we had 14 PAX and 3 crotch sniffers join in for this week’s installment of tour da Tuckahoe. Route was Lake Loreine we an add on. 5.25 miles if you did posted route. A few back to last and a few skipped turns made sure no one had same mileage. As for the ruckers.. They tucked the big square around Raintree. Mumble Chatter was epic.. But it’s a mobile COT.. so have to show to know.

    If you wasted this much time reading this..then you have 30 extra seconds to go text a pax member you have not heard from in a few months. It might be just what you both need to get through the week. Just go do it.

    Oh yeah.. T-Claps to the SOJ crew on the Daddy Daughter dance set up. Way to go on bringing the 2.0s into your Centraca. 👍

  • Crazy 8

    With the temps back in the 30s and 40s it makes it easier to push the pace and distance. 14 pax showed up to Rick and Run around Westhoe. There was a little mumble chatter off the start about being sore from yesterday’s KBs at Circus… But that soon faded as we turned to go take on some hills.

    Pushed the pace today on the 5.5 mile route with Chicaron, so we didn’t get a chance to chatter with others.

    The ruckers all seemed to be in good spirits when they returned to the AO.

    EF Hutton said we wanted more hills..

    Pinto and a few others took on the 4.5 mile route

    Lighthouse picked up Full House and covered some extra credit.

    thank you all for showing up and holding me accountable.

  • It was Venus

    12 guys and 2 dogs stood around after a hilly run around Westend waiting on Pigskin to tell us what planet was shinning next to the moon this morning.. After a fair bit of time most walk away not knowing.. He was able to finally get the app to work and it was Venus. So now you know…

    As for the workout… We ran. A few lefts a few rights.. Many hills.. I heard Mr Roger’s and Lighthouse talking behind Full House and I.. Salt lick talked bedpan ear off.. Pigskin rolled solo. Blue moon and Handshake walked a dog.. Not sure how the others paired up. 4 of us did the 5 mile route, 6 did the 4 mile, 2 did a walk.

    thank you Mr Roger for taking us out.

    11 yr anniversary tomorrow at Dogpile.. 0630.

  • SNAFU

    11 Men and 3 dogs came together for the final Friday Bro Code pace route around the Tuckahoe area. Situation Normal…. Nothing major to report.

    45 min run on a 4 mile route. Turn back for 6 on each turn. All men got 4 miles and some for 5.

  • 4th of July at Currahee

    Two for a run out of Godwin before the clown car to the official Independence day convergence at Atlee. We got in 5 miles with a very simple route. All runs are mobile COT so you gotta show to know.

    SYITG!!

  • Nothing was right

    It’s Currahee we always have a Q.. We’ll at 930 Thursday night still no Q.. So YHC is local site Q and means I got it.. Show up at standard time and I’m the only one in the lot. Where is EF Hutton?? He is always 1st to arrive. Did I not read something about a convergence? OK. Checked slack. No convergence and it is in fact Friday. Weird. A few cars coming in a bit early. Holy crap it’s Handshake… early??? Am I being punked? 5:29:30. Um excuse me. WHERE TF is Mr Roger and Wally? Something is not right about today. Set the route and we all head out. 45 mins later we all show up.. Well almost all showed up. Bedpan is missing. He missed a turn and as I’m headed out to find him, I get this text: “Curahee. I took the long road. I’ll meet you at Dunkin. I’m already there.”. Lol. My brother Bedpan ran extra miles.. Didn’t come back to AO where his car was and stopped where he knew we would go for coffee. 🤣 Lighthouse gave him a ride back after coffateria.

    Anyway. It was a circus of random shit at Currahee today. Glad we all were safe. Oh yeah.. I Forgot.. Roger Roger and Salt lick had a car try to take them out as well. CRAZY times in Westhoe.

  • Currahee BroCode

    9 joined up to run the traditional last Friday BroCode. One big square around the Westhoe best running AO. 4 miles if you do not turn back for the 6.

  • 23 out 22 back

    Picked up Q 10pm night before so didn’t have time to plan a route..

  • Swimming for 45 mins

    6 Pax showed up for a 45 min swimming lesson around the Westhoe region. Route was the easy part….the 99% humidity was the challenge.

    The call was the Handshake route:
    Right out of parking lot onto Pump
    Left at Either:
    Three Chopt (4 mile route)
    Dog Park (4.5 mile route)
    Broad Street (5 mile route)
    Left on Pump
    Right on John Rolfe
    Left into parking lot off of Pump.

    Yes the directions are correct.. those of us in Short pump understand that many of the roads change names for no apparent reason and you have another road by the same name fairly close by. No wonder Doozy gets lost running with us.

    TAP for Roger Roger recovery

    2nd F at Fishin’ Pig at Inns Brook on Tuesday.

    Thank you for letting me lead.

    Call Handshake and ask him where he was this morning.

    SYITG!!
