20 warriors of The Gloom came to ride or run their way through the soup that was the latest edition of the Run/Ride at Mary Munford. Temps were sunny and 70 with stickiness.
Routes: With the Stanley Cup Finals starting on Monday, YHC pulled the Hockey Stick Route out of the archives…east on Grove to Malvern (left) until each of the following…top of railroad bridge (4 milers), Saunders and Laburnum (5 milers), or right on Laburnum to AP Hill Statue (6 milers).
Sippy and Phonics tore off to complete the 6 miles. A gaggle of runners, including Splinter, Saab, Offshore, Handshake, YHC, and Abba (aka, “I don’t care about that.”) hit the 5 mile route. Bleeder, Honey Do, Lug Nut, and others hit the four. Something happened to a bunch of other runners.
Riders rode.
Number-am-a, Name-a-ram-a, YHC took us out.
Announcements:
Summer Tour starts tomorrow…26 officials AOs and 9 extra credit options.
Memorial Day Convergence is Monday at 7 a.m. Meet at the parking lot next to the Tredegar Iron Works.

Good run today, fellas. It was a slog, for sure. Thanks for pushing me, Offshore.
I will soon start forwarding requests to the F3RVA complaints hotline.
Good route Señor Chuck. Fun to talk about the ridiculousness of indoor skydiving with the group.
Great job guys – the humidity has arrived !
See y’all in the gloom..
Lug and I split the difference with 4.5, lug was flying…
Good route Upchuck. I was trying to draft off of Honey Do but his tank has a lot more fuel than mine!
Swiper was disturbed at the sight of 5s and 6s running together. Something like “well, at least I was late.” Upchuck, M Offshore has a message for you after volunteering me for the Memorial Day Punisher Q.
Thank you?
Let me check… yep, that was it!
