  • 3 Amigos for Tomato Run

    YHC pulled up for a run and had 2 others show up so we decided for a Taylor Farm 4 mile route. We had some great mumble chatter for this run, talking about family, the holidays and what we plan to do next year. It was great to catch up with Opus and Bulkhead this morning. Nice cool weather and a great recovery run pace.

    Numberama, Namerama and Opus took us out in prayer.

  • Are we sure its not Spring

    A Fab 5 to advance of the warm weather to get in a run this morning. The plan was run for an hour at your own pace. Distance ranged from 5.5 to 6.25 miles.

    It was great to finally met Clint and also to have Mr. Holland join us for a run

    We headed over to the Local Cup and met up with the two that went to Dogpile

    Plans were discuss about a half marathon in April

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Tomato One

    YHC showed up to the Rutland Club house to an empty parking lot, knowing that some Davillians may run to meet up here, waited until 1 minute past go time…no others, time to run.

    With no pre-thought out route, started with a reverse Bojangles loop to get the juices flowing, run over the train bridge and turn into Giles and do the loop near their clubhouse. Return back over the Sliding Hill Road Bridge run past the Rutland clubhouse and turn around to a large barking dog (a little shocked sprint) and backup to the intersection u-turn to clubhouse and mini loop there to complete 4 miles for this morning.

    Nice Crisp air this morning and look forward to a great day as the run is done!

    Have a great day everyone…Cheers, CB!

  • The hard way

    8 guys took some time this morning for a 5k the hard way. Fun times had by all! Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

  • New Old friends at Tomato Run

    YHC learned that we would have some F3 Davillians that have not posted at Tomato Run for awhile and with 3 others showing up we went for a 4.3 or 4.6 mile run and see the route below:

    This was the 4.3 mile run where we ran to back of Atlee HS, then into Honey Meadows, through Taylor Farms back on Atlee Station road turn into Giles to the 1st turn circle and return to the start. the 4.6 Mile run route was the same except that instead of turning into Giles run past turn and take the BoJangle’s loop to return to start.

    Numberama, Namerama Marco Polo took us out.

    Moleskin

    YHC enjoyed running with Spike this morning as he pushed the pace. Marco Polo and Opus ran together and it was great to catch up with everyone when we returned to the start.

    Great run this morning…Cheers, CB.

  • Finding New Roads

    3 Davilians headed out on or weekly run around Daville and this how it went down

    20 mins out then 19 mins back. We ended up running the full new loop of Giles which included the unpaved parts.

    Nice morning for a run

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Back in the Saddle without Opus

    2 Davillians decided to skip the hill repeat this morning at VCC and post at the normal spot for Tomato Run.

    YHC has been MIA for most of October with a sinus infection then late nights with the MLB Playoffs. Infection is most gone and the Braves won the WS so time to get back out there.

    Knowing that hill repeats would be a great ideal run to return to, YHC decided to reach to Opus about running at Rutland. He agreed and plan was made

    YHC pulled into the parking lot at 5:27 with no Opus to be found. At 5:34 Bulkhead come walking up saying he also planned to meet Opus.

    We decided to have a Run/Walk morning switching about every 1/4 mile walk to a 1/4 to 1/2 mile run starting with the Bojangles loop, over the fly over onto the Atlee HS service road back to the football field then turn around and come back.

    Got in 3.6 miles this morning

    Was great to be back and catch up with Bulkhead.

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Opus…No Opus

    YHC was contacted by Phonics to set up the Tomato Run Time trial site where we have hill repeats as it has been awhile since we have had a morning run at this special location. Here is what went down:

    YHC shows up, then Phonics and we were expecting Opus as he had the suggestion for this event this morning…so @ 5:31 we left for the hill workout location. This route is perfect in that you get about 1 mile warm up and start at the top of the hill right after you cross I-95 and take a left on Village View Parkway(this is the hill) we ran this loop 4 times then moseyed back to the parking lot for a cool down from the hill grind run. This was 4 miles this morning and see map below:

    Numberama, Namerama and Phonic took us out in Prayer.

    This was a great cool morning for a run, SYITG, Cheers…CB!

  • Tomato Easy Run

    YHC was planning an easy slow paced run in preparation for the weekend Capital Trail race and see the route below. This was mostly flat and had fun catching up with Trout and Opus on this 4.14 mile run.

    Numberama, Namerama, Opus took us out in prayer.

  • Labrat gets an Italian lesson

    5 guys came out to do a modified run this morning.

    Here is what went down —

    4 miles total — every half mile we stopped and did exercises which included merkins, plank jacks, squats, jump squats, crunches and dry docks

    Clint taught Labrat the correct way to pronounce Italian cities he had been pronouncing wrong all his life.

    Fun times had by all!
