On a 70 degree (Kelvin) and soon-to-be sunny morning, a six-pax hit the trails of the James River Park System. Called route: South Bank to T-Pott bridge to North Bank. Mileage, pace and direction varied, but 6.5 miles +/- achieved. Numbers, names, YHC took us out. Announcements – Nancy Lopez Respect Week of Qs and HDHH at Triple Crossing SOJ upcoming. Continued prayers for Durden and his M. Coffeteria and 2dF afterwards. YHC ate a turmeric ginger blondie at ETs. Sally ate a frozen poopsicle on the trail. Both were satisfied customers.

Despite the roads being completely clear this morning, YHC wondered if the sheer fact that it snowed last night might keep some away. As expected, Doozy was already there when YHC arrived at 6:50. Florence rolled up soon after and DTH came in hot with 30 seconds to spare. Here’s what went down: Mosey from parking lot 1 to parking lot 2 for COP: SSHs, DQs, Cherry Pickers, Russian Soldiers, Merkins, LBCs, Flutterkicks 11s Mosey down the safe snow and ice covered stairs to the bottom of a snow covered hill. Doozy says: ”You’re not using that hill are you?”…

YHC rolled up to see a couple of gents ready for the run for the morning, we had 3 walkers post @ 5am so they could get in a long walk to return by 6:15 at the clubhouse. It was definitely COLD this morning that the runners started immediately once we arrived…did not have time to open the hand warmers…just get moving. YHC had to modify route to a 4.3 mile route with a slower 9:30 + / mile pace. The route had some gradual declines followed by a long steady climb for about 2 miles. Great mumblechatter and was…

Thang- station time. runner as timer. 4 different exercises including using some resistance bands and jump rope. completed 5 rounds with Mary to round out time. YHC took us out in prayer.
