Browsing: River Run

Betty Weaver Elementary

We’ve all been there, trying to rush out the door for a workout and the keys are nowhere to be found. Doozy sent the 5:15 AM text to YHC as he frantically searched the house. Figured he’d catch up with Bullseye and I so basic directions were provided and sure enough, after keys secured, the River Runners met out on the route. 4 miles achieved around River Downs. Today’s topic of conversation – medical procedures. -Singer

Doozy volunteered to rejoin a River Run outing and so off we went. 5:29 AM sharp. 4 mile route around the flats of Tarrington, the river and then up the hill across from the baseball field which YHC had strangely not recalled running. Thanks for the company Dooz. -Singer

Today YHC had the best indigenous people run to commemorate the holiday. 4 miles of sprinting to the front. Route was around the high school, to the park, back around the high school, in and out of various parking lots and cul de sacs. -Singer

Knew I might be solo today so I opted to run from the house at 5:20 down to the AO. Couple swings through the parking lot around 5:30. No one showed, continued to run through the Tarrington hood back over Robious to Twin Team and home. 4 miles as usual. Minimal mumble chatter. Nice morning for a run. -Singer

Bullseye and YHC cruised around JRHS and River Downs for an out and back 4 miler. Weather was nice, 70 and sunny as always. Good conversation, good pace.

YHC couldn’t leave the area due to the M out of town so the flare was sent to Bullseye and we convened at casa Singer to run Mount Hill. Somewhere around 7 total loops, 4 miles in total. Managed to avoid any falling acorns and owl attacks. Good stuff. Not sure if anyone made it to the official F3 starting point but if they did, hope their run went well. -Singer

Three regulars joined up to log some miles. Route was flat and around, 4 in total. Stories were shared. Best of luck to those with empty nests or sending one of to college. -Singer

Sent out the bat signal the evening prior to some of the locals. YHC was solo parenting and therefore only able to run around Mount Hill Drive, hoping maybe someone would join from Bettie Weaver or at the least by sending the message forcing myself to get up and exercise. 3 miles of back and forth was the mileage solo in the books, assuming no one made River Run based based on the feedback from locals so I’m taking the backblast. -Singer

Three F3 Clydesdales came out to a balmy morning at river run only find a beatdown awaited them. A handshake Q turned into a YHC Q thanks to the ghost flag. El Nancyo (I hear this is a thing now) gave the PAX a run option but all agreed on bootcamp. Mosey around the front circle for some warmups. 20 each SSH, LBC; Seal Training: Overhead claps, front claps, 10 Each, Jazzercise, Helicopters, Imperials Walkers, , Copper head squat, Cherry pickers, Merkins, Dollies, Flutters.   Mosey to base of twin team hill. Years ago Doozy led the toughest F3 workout…

3 regulars, a summer tourist, and a local tourist (YHC) showed up at River Run with no Q on the sheet so I grabbed the reins and called the OG. Wedding Singer knew exactly what to do and led Bullseye up the hills of Tarrington. Doozy hung with EF and I for the baseball talk but sped up on his own when conversation switched to 2.0s swimming. The hills were rough, the air was thick, and the pace was slow but all finished and are better for it at the end of the day.
