  • Where’s El DeBarge?

    5 runners and 2 Ruckers enjoyed a colder morning after some rain. YHC had prepared the route but as we were starting to run, Mr Holland mentioned that “El DeBarge” was on the Q sheet.

    With no El DeBarge to be found we took off

    Route – A out and back. Headed to the large hill behind Craney Island then back for a loop around Bojangles. Phonics had some each wrong turns to add to his miles.

    Ruckers did their thing with their 4 legged friend as well

    Spit On That!!

  • Beat it, Bacon!

    4 ruckers and 4 runners showed up this morning to hit the mean streets of Mechanicsville.
    A piece of bacon showed up as well…

    Lots of fun was had by all.

    Apologies to Beat it from YHC, who posted something jokingly about a dress up and run day.

  • Lost and Found

    5 Runners started their Thursday morning with a traditional run around Rutland and the trail of Cool Spring Forest.

    2 Ruckers also did their thing with some laps round Rutland

    1 runner showed up late and after the COT, a search party went out and the lost was then found

    Hopefully the DaVille search and rescue will not be needed this Thursday

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • Tomato season is still on in Hanover

    6 men (2 groups of 3) gathered for this weeks Tomato Run. 3 Rucked and 3 Ran. Conversations were had about various subjects.

    Announcements – none

    Prayer Requests – Fudd’s sister/family. All people who are going through life’s challenges and struggles, both spoken and unspoken

    NMS – when YHC pulled into the parking lot at 5:28 not a car was in sight. YHC was worried it was going to be solo run, just YHC and Lulu. Luckily Phonics pulled in followed up Yard Sale and Trail Mix. No Idea and Bulkhead met during their Ruck to make a total of 6

  • Double-Digit Thrusday

    10 Davillians (Yep 10!) including 7 runners and 3 ruckers enjoy a nice Thursday morning

    Runners – Traditional route through Rutland and the Cool Spring Trail with optional return laps getting in 3.5 to 5 miles

    Ruckers – Normal route as well finish with a Bojangles loop

    Been a while since we had 10 show up on a Thursday with all the PAX being Davillians

    Also good to see Pablo out again

    SPIT ON THAT!!

  • No Small Child Left Behind

    Five “responsible” “adults” came out to pound the pavement. I have No Idea where the ruckers went, and I doubt they do either. Runners took a tour of the library/Bojangles area, skipped running behind Kroger because it’s smelly, hit the townhouses, crossed the bridge, and started venturing into Giles before time to head back to the proverbial flag.

    While there is no official age in VA when one is allowed to leave a child unattended at home, we agreed that Spit was probably wise to stay home today – if for no other reason than to be a good example of “responsibility” to Beat It as a new dad.

  • Back In The Saddle

    After a 2 week hiatus, YHC return to F3 and was welcomed by 3 other Davillians and 2 Summer Tourist

    Here is how it went down

    Runners – Completed loops around Atlee Station road from the light at Chamberlayne to the light at the top of the fly over. YHC got in around 3.5 miles while Phonics and Trout finished with the Bojangles loop getting in around 4.5 miles

    Great to meet Choo Choo and Beaver this morning. Excited to hear they are looking to launch an AO in New Kent soon!

  • Early risers beat the storm

    Four ruckers including one summer tourist and 4 runners converged at the Rutland Clubhouse for what was expected to be an extremely wet journey. The ruckers went just shy of 3 miles. The runners ran around Atlee High School and returned for about 3.5 miles.

    COT – Numberarama, Name-O-Rama, Announcements, Yard Sale took us out.

    NMS

    Good showing for what was expected to be a hard morning of rain. As it turned out, the rain mostly missed us and only picked up as we were leaving. Great job DTH for your many trips to the north for the summer tour. Conversations included everything from homeschooling to how leg and hip pain can actually originate in a different part of the body.
