Mary Munford Elementary

Eleven to fifteen (or more) and maybe an FNG on wheels that never returned to get his name, gathered to share embraces for those we haven’t seen in a while. Eventually the gears dudes quieted down so I could explain instructions. After some strange and inquisitive looks, Singer asked if I was giving the PAX the dong. Well, I guess so. If no one signs up to Q, you get the dong. The Route North on Commonwealth to a right on Fitzhugh Right on Malvern 5s left on Patterson, right on Nansemond, right on Grove, left on Malvern Straight into…

Thirteen survivors of leap day gathered to discuss various rituals that occur on leap day. Since that was such an enthralling conversation, YHC almost forgot instructions. Almost.

….According to Billy Squire on the radio this morning and verified by the skunk who left his fragrance wafting down River Road this morning. The nights may be lonely, but the roads were not. A shocking 50 degrees brought out the short sleeves and the chipping birds. West on Grove, to Libbie, to Kensington, to Maple to head east on Patterson. New ground was covered with a detour on Glenburnie north of Patterson. 4s and 5s returned via Patterson to their respective cut through to the AO. 6s headed out Willow Lawn Dr to pick up Broad and head east.…

Apologies to the PAX, YHC forgot to log this RAMM workout from last week, and the participants escape me. Let me know if someone needs to be added. Roll your own version (Super Bowl) LVIII. Marv led everyone down Commonwealth. 4s did the Monument -> Arthur -> Grove rectangle. 6s ran around the Siegel Center a few times in honor of the game that evening and returned home. Tclaps to TYA for pushing it out there.

9 Gents and one canine arrived for Friday RAMM. 4, 5, and 6m routes were administered. As to how the instructions were received, responses were mixed… All: 4, 5, 6s take Grove to Locke Ln, left toward Cary. Cross over and head strait on the road that turns into Charmian. Before hitting Hillcrest take hard left onto Charmian ‘jughandle’ which takes you to the bottom of Hillcrest. Take West-Hillcrest up to Cary, Stratford (half) circle back to Cary and cross over into Ampthill. Take Ampthill down until it turns to Paxton and return back up to Cary…cross over onto Tuckahoe…

At least four made their way around the greater school area for a RAMM run. YHC is late to posting, so let me know if I need to add anyone for big data purposes. There may have been a bike or two as well. Shakedown and I chose the YoYo route as he hadn’t had the privilege to experience this Upchuck spectacular. Unfortunately there were no other yo’s to yoyo so we just went about our business. Saab and TYA handled their own routes. COT took place in the new gazebo. Talks of the old days, laughs were had. Good…

The miles covered and the words said is what it is all about.

4 PAX assembled on a rainy Friday morning, most were hopeful for a little run/walk in the snow. Alas it was not to be. No Q signed up, so Sippy planned the running route. Runners: Head east down Grove. Turn right at Morris near VCU. Turn right at Floyd and head back west. Jug handle to Grove near the highway and back to the flag. Interesting conversations along the way about EVs, parking structures, and transportation efficiency. Walkers: Head down Grove to Starbucks. Mosey back. COT: Sippy took us out.

9 runners, 1 walker and 1 late arrival headed out into the gloom for a run south of Cary St. YHC reviewed the routes that had been posted the night before.4s: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/5879361016/ 5s: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/5879364109/ 6s: https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/5879361703/ Hearing no questions, the PAX headed out. Having reviewed the posted routes the night before, the late arrival was able to catch up with the PAX, and even surprised a few with his miraculous appearance. AnnouncementsGreat job to Bootleg completing the Snowy Owl 10 Miler last weekend! TYA reports he sped through it! Numberama, Namerama and YHC took us out.

Seven on foot and two on wheels leaned into the colder temps and hit some crisp road miles. Today’s route had some west on Grove, a little Patterson, Bromley was prominent in the route and a dip into Windsor Farms. Something for everyone. Announcements: GrowRuck – Sign up for an adventure that you are not going to want to miss. See Slack for details. HDHH – 1/17 – Slack will be the source for details. YHC took us out. It was great to connect with Hitch over coffee afterwards.
