Starbucks – Winterfield Crossing

YHC didn’t look at the Q sheet, just assumed a few SOJ folks would be at AO. Hot potato Q for one it was. Couldn’t pass up the chance to run in 60 degree weather after the past month. The thang: Perform the Rosie route again, add in Midlothian Elementary School to complete a drive-by of all three Midlothian schools for the full 6 miles. Moleskin – no words were said during this workout or post, it would seem weird wouldn’t it? See you folks in the gloom!

Hot and muggy plus some overnight storms that made it somehow more humid, was the overall sentiment of the day.  2 PAX got the full 6ish miles, a LIFO got a few miles of his own and a Starsky with 2.0.  YHC thought he was going to be running alone a few minutes before 6 but saw a car circling what is possibly the most confusing parking lot in RVA.  Though a screen of shrubs Wedding Singer appeared and with a slow mosey out of the parking lot looking for LIFOs we hit the pavement. A solid 6ish miles for…

4 strong for the first OTB WO. As we set out for an hour run who knew what we would end up with?  Good part was the humidity dropped and we tracked in around 7.1 miles making for a nice start to this Sunday.  Hills are not the main focus on this AO as we all need to prep for the distance and time on our feet for BRR as it coming soon I hear………. COT, Name-a-rama, Number-rama Good stuff and nice work by all that showed up for the official “OTB” Sunday run.  Hint those that showed up……”WILSON” not…

3 PAX met in the overcast evening for a few miles and BRR prep.  See the Pre-blast for the routes.  TYA and Lugnut covered 6 miles and YHC took the 9 mile option.  The rain cleared out before the run and made for a nice evening run.  TYA broke out the BRR headlamps for a test run and YHC can attest that these are excellent and should do the job. Great run men, thanks for indulging and sucking up the torture of a few hills.  If we do this again, hopefully those Batteau boys can make it out.
