YHC donned the traditional black F3 attire, left my headlamp sitting at home, and ventured out into the streets/trails of Rockwood Park. Completed our normal paved trail run through the backwoods…..I did pick up the pace a bit when in the vicinity of the cannibal compound. Big Rig had just finished a 5 mile run and was heading to work as I arrived. A fist bump and some encouraging words earned him a coveted big data point. As usual, a good time was had by all.

3 Amigos ran copious amounts of laps around Rockwood Park before the Q. Big Rig had the horrible idea of running 5 miles before his own VQ. Can’t say anyone will ever repeat that. He and YHC covered 5 miles launching at 5:55 am. House Party launched at the usual 6:30 am time and got in 2 miles. Prayers for TryHard and Chaplain’s families who are dealing with the flu tearing through their house. 

Two Saiyans ran down Snake Road to begin their Kaio-Ken training at King Kai’s. New power level was unlocked. Covered 2.5 miles before Doozy’s recurring leg/ab beatdown. Safe travels to House Party and Big Rig. Good luck to Mudslide doing Spartan. 

With no PAX in sight, YHC jogged solo through the nether regions of Rockwood Park. Completed our normal paved woods loop while meticulously planning the Rock N Roll workout. True to form – a good time was had by all.

Big Rig and YHC hit the trails of Rockwood Park before Ponch’s VQ beatdown. Covered the usual 2.5 miles. Mumble chatter included high school athletics, favorite athletes, college football fandom, and NFL fandom.

Chaplain and YHC had a therapy session for the Morning Wood run today. YHC visited Monticello yesterday with the M and 2.0s and got yelled at by a lady in her 80s who was volunteering at the welcome center. Apparently strollers carrying babies don’t qualify for elevator usage to the main floor ticketing area. Who knew? Meanwhile, Chaplain’s M has been on him for needing to talk to his 2.0 Touchdown on not seeking out ”Karen gets owned” YouTube videos and refraining from talking about the term in front of his aunt who happens to be named Karen. 2.5 miles ran before DTH’s beatdown.

The Morning Wood Crew enjoyed a wet run through the paved nature trails of Rockwood Park. Downed branches and YHC’s substandard light made for an interesting journey. Big Rig was at the park early and got in a total of 5 miles. Well done, sir. House Party and myself did a version of the normal route, then added on a couple parking lot laps at the end. A good time was had by all!

Two regulars ran the paved loop trail before Rock N Roll. Chaplain is still dealing with some back issues so he’s been having to modify and take more days off. Mumble chatter included IPC, injuries, and football. Always good to run with my brother Chap!

Big Rig got in a 3 mile run on his own before launch time then joined Chaplain and YHC for another 2 miles of Morning Wood. Mumble chatter included weight loss accomplishments, increasing pull up reps, and upcoming races. Big Rig is an inspirational guy. He’s lost about 50 pounds over the past year and will be doing the Fall 10k in Waynesboro. He had to leave before Rock N Roll due to momma bear in town visiting.
