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.

16 gathered for this weeks Heartbreak Ridge, offsite edition. Mosey down from Heartbreak to Quioccasin and left on Westridge and then left on Camrose. Triple Checks leading up Camrose. Every round we moved further up the road with a goal of reaching Gayton. Unfortunately Gayton wasn’t reached but we heard every neighborhood dog along way. On the way back we turned right on Vassar and left on Farmington. We discovered one lone car who was driving what felt like 35-40 mph down a narrow road, luckily we could see it coming with plenty of time to get off the road.…

Baby had YHC up for a few hours last night, It’s now 5:19 AM and my snooze is going off. I was running a solid 7 minutes late for the Iron Haul this gloom. Ran out the door, flip flops on with socks and shoes in hand. No chance for my morning deuce! These things had to wait until YHB rolled up into Pine Fork Park. Come to find out, Beaver would be solo this gloom. It was a good workout as YHC ran these little legs covering every piece of the park and neighborhood by doing a double shift…
12 miles was on the menu for Gumbo today. A classic -2-mile loop (including going up Twin Team at like mile 8) was posted and Rosie immediately claimed to be out of town. Hmmm? Draper and Cavity Search wanted 8. No worries, Big Rig to the rescue – he was up for 4 pre-game miles before work, so we launched at 0515. Thanks Big Rig. Re-launch (after a Gumbo pit stop) with Rosetta and Cavity Search (Draper’s tank was at zero today) and 8 fast miles ensued as Rosetta brought some good stories and the pace. 12 miles. Mission accomplished.…
