    Happy National Donut Day if you so choose to celebrate it.  Definitely a made-up holiday YHC can get behind.  Would a donut flag in the yard be too much of a political statement?  Handshake’s neighbors could debate it for days.

    ANNOUNCEMENTS

    • WestHoe 2nd F lunch Tuesday
    • Bridge
    • Breaking Bread
    • Summer Tour – DogPile tomorrow
    • Prayers for safety on them roads
  • 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.

    No Q. Just Cot for a 45 mins.

  • Meet Gloom, the Neurodivergent Pup

    The Pax set out on a route as simple as it gets with YHC.  Here’s where:

    The Route

    • R on Pump
    • R on Ridgefield
    • R on Raintree
    • Circle the Lake behind the Raintree Racquet and Swim Club
    • Continue on Raintree to Gayton
    • Reverso on Raintree

    • Back to SF

    The Pax was greeted by Salt Lick’s hairy 2.0, Gloom.  Well-meaning, but a bit eccentric, Lulu said “Boy Bye” and Wally was just like “Chill Bruh.”  Miles were accomplished, no pickups were injured.  It was a beautiful morning, ruined by the fact that we were in fact running.

    ANNOUNCEMENTS

    • Breaking Bread – maybe needs a Q for tomorrow?
    • Convergence Monday – Tredegar Ironworks
  • 23 out 22 back

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

    7 pax joined up for the out and back on Ridgefield. Easiest route in all over F3. (somehow Doozy got lost last time).

    Right out of school parking lot. Left on Ridgefield. Run until it hits 23 mins.. Turn around and go back. This let’s everyone run thier pace, but still finish at same time.

    Nothing to report on mubblechatter.

    Convergence coming for Memorial day

    Call ssomeone you haven’t heard from in a while.

  • 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.

  • Eagles Hill

    Six showed up on a crisp Friday morning for a mix of running and walking. Half the group took on the hills and cul-de-sacs of Glen Eagles Dr., logging about 4.5 miles. The rest enjoyed a solid 3-mile walk at a brisk pace. Spirits were high all around.

    Thanks to everyone who made it out—and as always, apologies for the delayed backblast!

  • Someone’s Gotta Post It

    Bro Code before Hoe Code

  • IDK someone said a good title and I forgot.

    Thank you Salt LICK for taking us out. Thoughts for Roger Roger’s Family, Fudd’s family, Gomer surgery, Fireman Ed Cancer treatments, YHC Brother in law Prostate Cancer, and Piglets 2.0.

    2nd F: Fellowship

    CSAUP: 80 mile relay. 5/2 and 5/3 Westhoe team needs some ringers for ruck run. Talk to Mr Roger, Lighthouse, Offshore.

    Breaking Bread: SIGN UP.

    Lets all go watch Whitesnake band.

    1st F Fitness

    11 pax and 1 dog.

    Currahee is a running AO.. So we ran. BroCode pace today. 4.5 miles total with 3 miles of trail running that includes 3 of Westhoe best trails. Lots of mumble chatter.. But it’s a mobile Cot.. So Show to know.

    thank you for letting me lead.

  • Eight Rights, Six Lefts, DUH!

    Over the years YHC has learned that any route beyond an out and back will draw blank stares.  YHC continues to keep it complicated anyway.  Here’s where today:

    • L on Old Prescott
    • R on Glen Eagles
    • R on Bridgehaven
    • L on Burnside

    YHC couldn’t possibly have kept it any simpler, plus we just ran this route February of 2024.  You can lead a dog to water, but you can’t make them drink.  A few put in overtime and finished via Falconbridge and Pump.  No additional #BD points are awarded.

    Not sure if Lighthouse’s neighborhood has had its balls tickled like that before, but the PAX did so today.  Gypsy hit all the pubes as well.  No plastic particles were picked up to YHC’s knowledge.  YHC was unaware, but pleased to report that April happens to be Testicular Cancer Awareness Month, so check your boys, maybe not during the COT.
