Just over half the normal number of Spiderlings gathered in the maintenance bowl for today’s route. At least 3-4 people were expecting intervals and I assume all the normal attendees that didn’t post also assumed the same. So when Pucker’s route was called, there was massive disappointment. Either way, we had fun while running in the thick humidity on the following route.
The Route
- Through the cave, across the bridge, around the cloverleaf, and head downstream
- 4s pass Rattlesnake Creek and turn around at Stratford
- 5s take a right on Stratford then quick right on Stratford and continue up to Cherokee
- 6s continue on Riverside to a right on Rockfalls. Turn around at some strange spelling of cello.
- Everyone reverse back the same course
Numbers, names, YHC took us out.

It must have been because of the wonderful (sic) running weather this morning, as there was post-run coffeeteria (sans coffee) that continued until almost the top of the hour. Always great catching up with those that you do not run with on a regular basis.
Apparently this route is Pucker’s namesake. It’s at least Corned Beef’s favorite Spider Run route. May have to dig through the annals to see who first called ‘downstream’.
TClaps to TYA and Shakedown who doubled back to pick up Bone Thugs, only to find out Bone Thugs was not lost after all.
All in all, a great morning.

Dang, had I known intervals were not to be I would have made an early departure from the outer banks.
Best of luck Thugs….remember: it’s all sunshine and lollipops….
So you are saying that when you saw Splinter sign up for the Q, you planned a trip to the Outer Banks…?
