10 able runners and 1 FND arrived at Spider run for some servings of parts of the Turkey Trot
THE THANG
See the route above, Everyone did some variation of the route.
COT Swirly took us out
Moleskin
Dutch arrived with a four legged runner, Kenya ( the Friending New Dog’s F3 Name), YHC is pretty sure Kenya could have kept on going without issue.
Saab preferring to avoid any hills, he did a googolplex of loops around the lake. Recovery seems to be moving along nicely; however, For this year’s Turkey Trot, Saab is going to unexplainably be “out of town” and unable to participate in the race.
Wedding Singer trying Splinter’s junior size reflective vest for the first time, made it back safely to the AO without incidence. Swirly did get in a few extra miles by pre-running, YHC Pre-Run was backwards running (side note – the Nike App somehow reduced my mileage total – Lug Nut you may be able to catch up)
Welcome Pusher! Coming from the F3 Carolina’s region. YHC did not know the Spider Gift Store was open before 0530. Pusher was in full Spider gear, Shirt, Shorts & Shoes; he was giving MARV a run for his money “VCU vs UR”; although, UR with home court advantage, MARV Cranked out a healthy lead!
Post Run Activity
TYA calls YHC with “Hey, where are you?” YHC responds,”What’ up?”, TYA “Clavin’s car is dead at Ellewoods.” YHC, “Oh My way,” A few moments later, Clavin’s car started, and on it’s way to Advance Auto.

Well done gents!
Solid route. Enjoyed my time with Pusher. C’mon back whenever you’re in town!
Great run guys – beautiful out there this morning !
Car down = Bleeder = Boom !
See y’all in the gloom..
FYI – Turkey Trot is down to less than 10 spots open as of this morning. Awaiting the M to confirm where we’ll be this holiday, hoping to join. Enjoyed the route Bleeder, good looking out.
Love the route Bleeder. Sorry I missed the instructions but Marv, Dutch and I almost made it all the way around. Kenya was definitely setting the pace in the group.
This may be fake news. I just checked and apparently there are 720 registrants in the 10k. They will sell out at 1600 though.
At least one of our sources is incorrect.
If Saab is in town he commits to be there either cheering on the Woodfin Clan or following along by jumping into the masses with a re-purposed obfuscated racing bib…
Big data, please clarify, from the list of participants section online-
Non Members $35 thru 10/31 @ 11:59pm – $40 after 1155
RRRC Members $25 thru 10/31 @11:59pm – $30 after 440
FREE Kid’s Run ($0) 198
Total 1793
1155 + 440 = 1595.
Am I misinterpreting something here? Or is this just the total available and not the list of signed up runners?
https://www.raceit.com/Register/registrantSearch.aspx?event=38510
….they hike the price after said-date or after number of registrations has hit that threshold…
This link has the total number of sign-ups:

Still some spots in the Bear Creek 10 miler as well.
Honeydo informed me that I was mentioned in the back blast.
Thank you TYA and Bleeder for the rescue! I hope to be back soon. I won’t have a dead battery as an excuse to miss the gloom though.
