Honeydo has been overruled for May by Spit and Opus! May challenge is 3500 WWII Sit ups. Daily numbers should average about 117 per day. Q’s be sure to get creative with this one! Also let’s get a good turn out this month PAX. If this guy in the video can do it you can do it! Splinter has already updated the challenge spreadsheet. SPIT ON THAT!!

ONE undaunted Pax answered the Sunday morning call to arms (and legs) on the semi-annual “race weekend” in Richmond.  By race, YHC refers not to NASCAR, but to Ragnar and the Colonial 70.   YHC hopes all went well on the roads and trails. But, YHC digresses. YHC was late leaving the Fartsack this morning, and true to form, intended to run every light from Three Chopt to Cary to the Great Wall.  To YHC’s intense disappointment, there must have been a Richmond police officer at each intersection (apparently assisting in setting up for a road race!).  Luckily, the traffic…

We did the Murph led by Honeymoon at a new location. It was……………………great as always! A lot of mumble chatter today around BIG DATA as last time Honeymoon Q’d he never posted a back blast. That is concerning for those of us who enjoy hearing the updates on the podcasts! Sooooo, if Honeymoon posts a back blast, the BIG DATA administrator could use this as the one Honeymoon missed, but otherwise, please count our results! Remember – its not important that we gather all the data, it’s important what we do with it. What DOES TYA do with it???????????

3 sturdy redwoods posted on a Wednesday afternoon for a jaunt on Hillcrest. The Thang: 3 large loops on hillcrest two counterclockwise and one clockwise.  Each loop is 1.67 miles. NMM Circle K joined in on the festivities for the first time this year for the hill run.  Weathers was 85 and sunny, but the trees kept us mostly in the shade.  It is starting to get hot out there and the humidity in VA is starting to rise.  As such, we were all soaked by the end of the run.  Circle K was leading the group today, pushing the…
