Be it 2, 3, or 4 legs, 9 took a pass at the Devil’s Pitchfork off Westham Station near the James. Ample elevation for all.

6 gents showed up at UR, listened intently to the route – which was described as simple and straightforward – and you-know-who went the wrong way anyway….

announcements:

• TYA is at the start of his 6 week marathon on 3 legs. Send him best wishes and patience in his recovery
• Pickleball is apparently a thing…props to hitch for getting it started…. Not that you will get YHC out on a Monday

Saab abides- when he chooses to.

Bakers dozen of Spider common folk arose for a relatively great morning for a run under an SOJ takeover.

Routes – see slack – across bridge, through Huguenot Flatwater park, down Riverside to a point depending on mileage. Return to start.

Great job F3 amigos. YHC had some prior issues with the trailhead directions but everyone seemed to maneuver the route without incident, whether that be a full toe or just a single toe (well, Splinter isn’t wrong from an aerial view). There was another incident for our 6 mile crew out front of the pack, a unsuspecting female full monty, which no grunt of notification from Doozy could prevent. What happens on the trails stays on the trails.

Good to see Chip n’ Dale back out cruising the miles again. Prayers for TYA’s surgery and a speedy recovery.

A Lucky 13 pretty much followed the prescribed route, despite Fudd’s period interruptions during the instruction period.

The route:

• Route shown below is for 5 miles
• 6 Milers (Add):  When taking Three Chopt to Hanover, turn right on Stuart and return on Kensington (1Mi horseshoe)
• 4 Milers:  Follow route below however once you get on IRIS, follow golf course down to Ridgeway and straight on down back to start

We hit some hills – including owl strike corridor – new roads, a little bit of trail, and the scenic campus tour. Fun was had by all!

Hitchhiker took us out.

Announcements – Pickle ball tournament coming up. See slack for details and “how-to” videos.

17 eager beavers in need of a bush trimming posted for a Fudd inspired route. Alas, Hitch was not there to manage the landscaping but we ventured out into Westham anyway. A fav route for many returned after a hiatus of several years. #Brocode style made it a nice change from typical split routes…..several 4 milers commented that they worked harder because they knew the 5 and 6 milers were running the whole time, looping back to the Six. After COT there was a minor scuffle between Anthrax’s dog (sorry can’t remember his name) and someone else’s puppy (not sure who?). Fortunately no blood was spilled.

Announcements: Memorial Day convergence at Tredegar (7am), Pickleball tournament at Splinter’s house next Wed (5/24) at 5:30pm

Enjoyed it boys! Thanks for letting me lead…..and never stop chasing the wabbit!

YHC doesn’t know who was there, but this was the route. Lockjaw was the Q. If you can dig up your stats from 11/5/2019, let me know and I’ll add your name. I’m guessing Saab ran to vote, but who knows?
