All is quiet on New Year’s Day

4

Five fleet footed faithful fought off the fartsack to start off 2016 right.  Temperature was 45 degrees and clear, perfect running weather.

4 Mile loop – no takers, Aye!

5 Mile Loop – north on Westmoreland , right on Monument, right on Boulevard, right on Cary, right onto Exeter through Windsor farms, back to MM

6 Mile Loop – north on Westmoreland , right on Monument, right on Meadow, right on Cary, right onto Exeter through Windsor farms, back to MM

NM:

YHC was pleased to see 4 join in the run early after NYE. The PAX had the roads to themselves this AM as the rest of the Richmond was sleeping in after ringing in the New Year.  Offshore and Saab did the 6 mile loop while Swirly, Lockjaw, and YHC did the 5 miler.  Running on monument with all the Christmas lights still on was a good vibe while the only merriment the PAX saw was a guy in a Civic with music on keeping the party going on Monument and a 6 AM walk of shamer on Cary.  The 6 milers reeled us in crossing over 195 on Cary.  Offshore looks ready for the marathon next week!

Back at MM there was discussion of the movie Trainwreck (2 pax watched in on NYE) and confessions that all but one of the PAX turned in NYE before midnight.  Aye the call of the gloom this AM was far stronger than watching the ball drop on TV!

Announcements:  Regular workouts this weekend – With Wilson and Earthworm Q’ing Saturday will they serve up some New Years burpees after completing the December Burpee challenge or take a much needed break? Post to find out…

Happy 2016 and here’s to F3 RVA getting stronger in the New Year: in number and in brotherhood!

  1. Thanks to Saab for hanging back and running with me. Great to see the pax this morning. Nice route Honeydo.

  2. Great way to start the year off right. We had the roads to ourselves except for those few finishing off their night’s festivities.

    Windsor Farms is a total blackout at that hour….following Saab’s glowing armband in the distance to light the course.

    Great job guys. Sorry to have missed it. I’m ready to be back with the PAX

  4. Way to work guys . Thanks Honeydo and Lockjaw for waiting up for me – my knees were really feeling it that morning….
