2 posted, expecting a couple others that inquired about OTB but did not make it, for a few miles around Midlothian. Woolridge to Midlothian to Le Gordon back to the start with some additional on Coalfield to get to 5. After late nights SOJ neither runner was pushing hard through the mileage so it made for some good conversation. YHC will be out of town next Sunday so if you want to post see Honeymoon to make sure OTB is on.
