YHC and Bullseye met at Reds, one by foot and one by vehicle, to locate the least icy roads around the AO. Salisbury to Kentford, Queenswood over Helmsley, some side loops here and there on clearer roads, back to start for 4 miles.

Reds Routes Version #11
New AO, new running routes. This time Bullseye led us through the golf course for a bit and then over to Kentford, back to Stonegate, located the path back to the golf course to the clubhouse and back to the AO. 4ish miles traveled by AO runners, Bullseye picked up some more running to and fro.

Merger
YHC wasn’t sure if he’d make it to River Run with the Patriots playing the Wildcard round Sunday night game. At 5:15 AM, the flare was sent that I’d arrive on time, but Bullseye wasn’t in sight at the AO.
Out Helmsley to Brigstock to Kentford, across the golf course and down Banstead and wait….another runner at the intersection! As fate would have it, there was Bullseye. We then trekked another mile or two until YHC’s stomach gave out around mile 3.5. Bullseye carried the torch on for an unknown amount of distance thereafter.

The New ‘River Run’
River Run, or Lake Run, or Salisbury Run. A new beginning for the few of us that attend. It was decided new routes were desired so Bullseye and YHC met at the Episcopal Church of the Redeemer or Reds the last few outings and found the terrain and options to be welcoming. We’ll meet there for the foreseeable future. The River is still within reach, 4miles, so the name can stick as far as I care.
Getting used to the new routes, it was a 4ish mile jaunt around Salisbury including a few holes on the golf course.

Downrange Salisbury?
YHC and Bullseye connected to run a different route this holiday season. Meeting at the Church of the Redeemer, which is fitting for the luminary lighting that occurs on Christmas Eve running from the neighborhoods to the church. 4.3 miles logged for me, Bullseye ran to and from for over 6 probably. Nice morning for a job through the hood. Merry Christmas y’all.

Frosty Run
It was cold that day, COLD I tell you. Bullseye and YHC headed to the flats of Riverdown until YHC had to reroute the course for a warmer restroom. 4ish miles.

Running on Empty
No ties to the run itself, just seemed like a classic name for a F3 run. YHC had Grinch-esque ideas of running a Tarrington loop so off we went. The route was not disclosed until the hill was underway. Ha, got em. 4.35 miles in total up Tarrington and through Powderham -> Brigstock, Solstice -> Twin Team and home.
Stay safe.

Stone Harbor Run
Bullseye mentioned a trail run out to Stone Gate and off we went. Nice change of scenery hitting the trails, don’t think YHC would have gotten us through those in the pitch dark. 4+ miles logged. Good stuff. Happy December.

3 dudes, 0 plans
YHC made it to BWES with no plan to find Bullseye and coming in hot was Singer. None of us had any real plan of where to run but Singer suggested we move in one direction and the road would open up to ideas.
Terrington turn left at the first street out and back, right to the park hit the extra parking lot, out to JRHS to the end of the road and back to BWES.
4 miles on the nose and as flat as we could make it
Numbers / Names YHC took us out
NMS: YHC thinks the three of us have found every way to run a minimum of 4 miles and find almost no hills in an area known for its hills.

Solo El Tarrington II
The typical crew was out, YHC ran from home to the AO, circled the empty parking lot and took off for the hills. One hill actually, little different route up Ashwell into Powderham down Ellesmere back to Mt. Hill. Ran into a loose dog that didn’t appreciate the invasion of space, back track down Solstice through the woods and home. 4.5 miles total.
