5 studs and YHC posted on a sticky Sunday morning for a trail run. The Thang: Northside to T. Pottersfield to Buttermilk and back. NMM 2 Pax, Hardywood and Upchuck took the actual route today (I think). YHC was hurting after the first mile and opted for a straight cross off Belle Isle instead of T. Pottersfield. The other PAX opted to take a loop up to the war memorial and then back to the route. Not sure why they visited war memorial, but at least two of the PAX members hated the addition. Swallow got bit by a bee…
YHC has heard lots of mumble-chatter recently (Gomer Pyle, Shake Down, Hardywood, among others) about starting a 2nd hour workout on Saturdays about once a month. No time like the present. Launch date will be October 21, 2017, for Double Dog (permanent name TBD). YHC has the Q for Hour 1. Anyone interested in the 2nd Hour of Power should plan to stick around after Dog Pile. Basic plan will be to finish up Dog Pile (COT, etc.), take 5 or so to re-fuel, and start the 2nd hour about 7:10 a.m. YHC will take the Q to start followed…
Another Saturday where White Deer and Earthworm were MIA, so there was an audible to get a little more cardio work in. YHC embarked upon the final leg of his triple crown of Q’ing at ole faithful, Gridiron. YHC was joined by a 6 other local members of the PAX plus one visitor from the great state of NC.

They are definitely gearing up for something. Gomer Pyle was flying today. He passed YHC with over a mile to go and I did not see Sippy and Splinter for…
YHC arrived to find Hardywood sipping his coffee. Gumbo and Rosie accepted the monthly challenge and finished running their mile and Mr. Roper peeling in hot with 4 minutes before the start! YHC decided to utilize James River HS fall field and track so we moseyed to The Swamp. During the run Hardywood and Mr. Roper started mumble chatter about a common acquaintance between the two who started a monthly mens group in his backyard. No workouts and their name-Extraordinary League of Ordinary Men. See Hardywood and Mr. Roper for clarification and any questions. End zone COP- X15 Arm circle…
Ohh ohh, like a surgeon… (anyone alive remember Weird Al’s parody of ‘Like a Virgin”?)
