Some dudes ran from Munford Friday morning. Grove route was chosen since there was no one on the Q sheet and we had some new RAMM folks show up. TYA confirmed the hips don’t lie, Saab abides. There were others, some gear people, that I didn’t see or tally up. Apologies. -Singer

5 dudes, some shirted, some shirtless, took on the post-dawn Gloom. Temperatures were 70 and sunny with a dash of humidity. According to the goddess running with her pooch, the following might have happened: Route: North Bank to T-Pottersfield to Buttermilk. Some dudes did Belle Isle to railroad road. Numbers, names, and announcements at ETs. Announcements: Not many announcements except Pickleball and Convergence. NMS: Oral arguments focused on the Supreme Court. The panel was divided, with each party writing their own Opinions. Some lady showed up talking in country music song lyrics. She made the most sense of anyone.
5:57 a.m. 5 blurry eyed runners discussing the running route for the morning when Aisle 5 comes in hot. No Wilson today to join Aisle 5 for a walk, but there was a backup plan: electric unicycle. Pretty much the last thing on earth we expected to see this morning was Aisle 5 charging ahead or behind the running Pax with his bionic enhancements. Really cool. Played music and everything. 10k knocked out just under an hour. Starbucks post run. Good second F on a variety of topics including bourbon and the pros/cons of men’s short shorts. P.S. Text a…
