Numberama, Namerama, Announcements including several health and family updates / request. YHC took us out.

Moleskine: It was a pleasure working out with such a fine group this morning. Well done with 180x Monday Merkins. It seems that we’ve fully re-entered both the Hoedown darkest AO season and dew season with the welcome cool AM temps. YHC was tempted after the second loop around Silverspring to rinse and repeat for the entire morning… maybe next time.

  1. Thanks for leading the Pax today, I enjoyed the double-dip of the Indigenous People’s Run.

    After the workout I walked up on DTH inviting Greenbow over to his Hot Tub. I suppose there might have been a medical reason, but one can’t be sure. I’d expect a visit to DTH’s Hot Tub might be similar to this classic SNL skit. https://youtu.be/gqeQLV04kwU

  2. I glad you appreciated it, Upchuck. I hope you had the opportunity to enjoy the classic SNL skit.

  3. Forgot to login Monday to let y’all know that I haven’t been to DTHs hot tub – yet – but I did hear the name of it is “DOCTORS ORDERS” (actually DTH, if you ever buy a boat you have to name it that)
