Seven trail breakers fought off the weekend Fartsack to dominate the latest edition of Sunday Funday. Temperatures remained 70 and sunny. According to the woman with the dog who waved to YHC TWICE (!), the following likely happened: Route: Generally, South Bank (Buttermilk) to T. Pottersfield Bridge to North Bank. Some did Riverside Drive. Some other routes on isles. Numbers, names, and TYA took us out. NMS: Unibomber is doing 10k training, and apparently 24 hour training. Yep – that’s run for 24 hours straight. Distance is you vs. you. Wow – stud. Put another way, that’s like starting to…
9 studs galloped through the latest version of Sunday Funday. Conditions remained 70 and sunny. According to the 20-something lady with her dog who has seen us 100s of times and still does not say hello, the following might have happened: Bridge to Buttermilk to Belle Isle to North Bank. 7 miles. Saab did roads…10 miles? Kabob did something that apparently involved flying. Well done, gentlemen. Numbers, names, and Shakedown took us out. NMS: Sunday Funday continues to thrive…and grow. Lots of dudes prepping for up-coming races, especially the Bear Creek 10 miler. Nice to have Turbo out there today…
Great to see some OG’s show up. General route was south trail (buttermilk) through Forest Hill and back. Saab abides
A mixed-6 hit trails and roads covering both north and south banks of the James. Excellent company and conversation at ETs afterwards. Saab abides
An elite 8 kicked the year off right with a foggy trail run. The weather was spectacular for running, though the trails of Belle Isle were a little muddy. There were a couple of crash and burns with hopefully minimal injury; other than a muddy knee and maybe some interesting park surveillance footage capturing the event. Happy New Years!
Many miles and many smiles as an elite 8 covered the north and south banks of the James…Anthrax was donned in his favorite golf shirt, and Shakedown was a running-billboard for all things BMX. Saab abides
Remarkably, the pax extracted many variations of distances from the typical South/North bank route. Saab Abides
6 chose to chill out for the latest edition of Sunday Funday. Conditions remained constant at 70 and sunny. According to the Kotter who was freezing in the parking lot, the following might have happened: Route: Nickel Bridge to Buttermilk to Forest Hill, unless you are Chippendale and are too fast to hear the audible, in which case it’s unclear what he ran, or Saab, who ran 10 miles on roads, in which case YHC knows he ran elsewhere. Numbers, names, and YHC took us out before Chippendale froze in place. Announcements: Loops on Friday. This event is awesome. Day…
Eight was great for the latest version of Sunday Funday. Conditions were 70 and sunny. According to the spiders with webs hanging approximately 5 feet 8 inches above the ground, the following might have happened: Route: Buttermilk, T-Pottersfield Bridge, North Bank. 6.5 miles. Numbers, names, and YHC has no idea (different guy) who took us out as YHC fled to walk his own pooch. NMS: Solid morning for a run, especially after the darkness burned off. Ripcord set the pace early. With his 5 foot 6 inch torso cutting down the spider webs, YHC experienced only a few higher webs…
