Only a Cup of Gumbo today..

YHC rolled into BWES early this morning wondering if BRR might make River Run a solo run…no worries, OC rolled in with time to spare and Bullseye and LUGNUT…YES, the man, the myth, the warrior, LugNut rolled in with a few minutes to spare. What a freaking machine….RESPECT!

And, with that YHC felt immediately like a putz because I had to roll out early from my own darn Q…a FIFO Q – is that a thing?

Instructions were given – Old Faithful Tarrington route – and off we went.

YHC had to cut Ashwell hill short and return quickly to the flag to get the rest of my day started in time to make an early meeting. I am sure COT was wonderful and I’m sure the announcements were glorious. OC, Bullseye or LugNut can provide those in the comments.

NMS:
I’m so thankful for it not being a solo run today. I’m not sure I would have had the fortitude to gut it out. It was great to see OC – it’s been a minute since we have shared the gloom. Always great running and chatting my friend. I’m so glad to hear that your son is going to school today. I know the recovery is ongoing, but that is a great step. I hope he had a great and safe day in the rowdy halls of MMS (Go Mustangs!).

No offense to OC and Bullseye (love you guys), but man, seeing LugNut roll into the parking lot and casually say “well, I mean I didn’t run at all yesterday” really pumped me up.

This group and you men never cease to amaze and motivate me. Thank you!

No More Gumbo For You!

  1. I’m not surprised Lug Nut posted today. I am surprised however that he didn’t post 22 minutes earlier than he was supposed to, like he did after his first leg of the BRR. We almost weren’t ready for him, he showed up so early. My man crushed it!

  2. Great work to the BRR crew for getting out there.

    And, fantastic to hear that OC’s kid is healing well. Good news to start the week!

  3. So glad to hear things are on the mend for OC’s 2.0!

    LugNut, there are just no words to describe the amount of respect I have for you at this moment. My man kills it (no, annihilates it) at BRR and then shows up for River Run on Monday morning like it’s nothing!

  4. Thanks for the kind words Gumbo. Great to back running with you and the group. My boy made it back to school today. Appreciate all the prayers, thoughts and texts. They really helped.

    Lugnut was a B.E.A.S.T. today. He smoked Bullseye and I up the hills. Congrats to him and the rest of the BRR teams! Awesome work.

    I’ve got some lbs to lose after my hiatus. See you tomorrow!

  5. Thanks for the kind words men but you are giving me far too much credit. On the important side of things it was great to hear OC’s 2.0 is getting better. Always a pleasure gents.
