Turn up for Tomatoes

The PAX: Wedding Singer, Rosie, Honeymoon

Hot and muggy plus some overnight storms that made it somehow more humid, was the overall sentiment of the day. 2 PAX got the full 6ish miles, a LIFO got a few miles of his own and a Starsky with 2.0. YHC thought he was going to be running alone a few minutes before 6 but saw a car circling what is possibly the most confusing parking lot in RVA. Though a screen of shrubs Wedding Singer appeared and with a slow mosey out of the parking lot looking for LIFOs we hit the pavement. A solid 6ish miles for…

Returning to the scene of the crime from the past February double-Q chapter with Yardsale, it was time to take a “look back” again for more Hindsight on July 21 (deja vu / but new and improved) Everything makes sense in hindsight. 14 Davillians including 5 strapping 2.0s ditched their fart sacks on this HOT July 21st – Ready to rumble at The Creek at 5:30am (well, 5:31, sorry).

Ghost Flag

By Rosie on July 20, 2017

When: 07/20/17
QIC: Ghost Flag
The PAX: All PAX

The idea of the Ghost Flag is to encourage PAX to travel outside their normal circle of AOs to meet, interact and generally get some 2nd F with PAX from other areas. This is not a challenge to see who can keep the flag the longest, the goal is to have it passed around to all areas and AOs. Areas outside of Richmond are welcome to join, Hampton Roads has already expressed interest in stealing the flag and I expect Charlottesville might have a run at it too. Below are a few ideas on the general rules of the Ghost…
