2 strangers lurked in the gloom at the strangers parking lot as YHC rolled in making it 3 gloompadres. The SF was staked into the soil, we met up, waited for any latecomers and moseyed to the trailhead and down around the football field and back to the east helipad.

Ten enthusiastic runners showed up this morning for a nostalgic route—the reverse Caroline with a few creative tweaks. But this wasn’t just any ordinary run.

The 5 studs that were obviously the targets of the orbiting satellites thought they had a Chaplain Q to look forward to but got sucked into a Rosie time warp while waiting for coffee to brew. Standard lounge warmup in conversation while Doozy told stories of a Radford parent weekend. He found a college party for his M and daughter, saw the sign that said “Hot Moms Enter Here”, dropped his M off, yada, yada, yada, he picked them up later in the day. If you are in a college acapella group on parent weekend – the obvious choice of…

7 or 8 Men (the mind is the first to go) posted on a beautiful Thursday morning. 4 ruckers and 3 runners. Corned Beef lead the ruckers and the runners ran. I assume the runners went about 3.5 miles and the ruckers went 2 to 2.5. Corned beef and Mustang kept the ruckers going at a pretty good pace. We met back in the parking lot for numberama, namearama and the prayer.
5 men posted on a beautiful fall 50 degree morning. Yardsale warmed us up with a mosey around the parking lot, hillbilly’s, SSH’s, LBC’s, hand release merkins, heels to heaven and probably a couple others. Todays challenge was to do 20 reps in each of the 4 corners and have each exercise be different. The 5 guys took turns calling out the exercises. We were running out of options we could think of when we ran out of time. We finished up with a circle of fire (10 merkins for each guy). Numberama, Namearama and Surf & Turf took us…
