Thirteen thrill seekers huddled near Flatline’s shovel flag (thanks Flatline!) for this week’s incarnation of Spider Run. With only a few minutes to spare, YHC described the experience the PAX would endure while offering the opportunity for someone to identify the route. Singer dreams of Spider Run routes so was quick to chime in with Westham Station aka Devil’s Pitchfork (or perineal if you are Hutton). A slight variation of the standard route was called:
Route
- South through the owl cave then west on Westham Station
- Continue and bear right on S Ridge and reverse course at the light
- 4 milers return home the same way
- 5 milers add a left on Old Bridge followed by a right on Highland up to River and back
- 6 milers add a right on Ross to the bottom and the Highland offshoot
Numbers, names, YHC took us out.
Announcements
- Prayers for Pucker’s dad as he undergoes another surgery
- Prayers for those under stress or battling through mental health issues
- Happy birthday Hitch!

The PAX was lively today. Farmer Fran didn’t appear although for a moment the PAX thought Daisy Duke was emerging from the dusk. Spoiler alert, it was not Daisy Duke.
Great running with Marv and Saab today. Topics du jour were getting ghosted by the po-po, getting stood up at UVA, having lots of friends at VCU, and living in a world with lots of data. Certainly made the 45 minutes go by very quickly.
Seize the day fellas!
