Big Ben, Parliament

A lucky 13 rose and shone for some morning miles.

The Routes

Head west along the lake and cut up to the Robin’s Center parking lot along the baseball field.  Across the parking lot and up the hill past the stadium.  Continue up Boatwright and hang a left on Edgehill just prior to Three Chopt.

Pop out at Three Chopt and take a left, running until you hit Patterson.  Hang a right and head east.

4s turns at St. Christophers to the access road to Towana to Campus and down the main entrance to the shovel flag.

5s turn at Granite taking it to Grove.  Head west on Grove to the access road and take Towana to Campus and down the main entrance to the shovel flag.

6s turn at Harlan and take Roslyn to Grove.  Head west on Grove to the access road and take Towana to Campus and down the main entrance to the shovel flag.

YHC took us out.

The Moleskin

Runners covered all distances with everyone looking strong.  Faceplant cruised with Saab and even maintained a conversation.  Looks like the sixers have a new rabbit in their midst.

YHC held off the COT for as long as possible awaiting Lugnut’s arrival.  Still no Lugnut and some concern kicked in.  Namearama and the Pax began to disperse and still no Lugnut.  A few minutes later, a silhouette of a runner with Lugnut’s gait wearing a black shirt was seen at a distance.

It turns out he made a detour and ended up on Kensington.  Unbeknownst to Lugnut, he was now on an oval loop doing laps.  It reminded YHC of the scene from European Vacation in the roundabout (Looks Kids!  Big Ben, Parliament!).  Finally, a walker offered him advice and he was able to make his way to Three Chopt and back to the shovel flag.

No man left behind.

Time to Taper,
