Three road warriors shed the fartsack this morning to start the week with a run by the river. Here’s how it went: BWES down to the Swamp/JRHS and back around to Robius, left to the Twin Team cul-de-sacUp Twin Team Hill, right on BrigstockBrigstock to Mt Hill Drive, tale a right and run the loop into Brigstock againLeft on Brigstock and out to the top of the Twin Team HillDown to the cul-de-sac and back up Twin Team Hill [this part sucked.

YHC decided to try to find his way through Tarrington again this week. At the first circle take a hard left, take 3rd right, take the next 3 rights. There’s the hills, out to Robious Rd cross and head down Twin Team around JRHS and back to BW NMS: Still looking for friends to join in on all the Monday fun at River Run

Uno Amego out for a run at BWES this morning. YHC decided to run the Tarrington route today but took the wrong right turn after the first round about and ended up cutting off about a mile and two hills. by the time YHC realized his mistake it was too late to back track. Run must have been right around 4 miles and the pace might have been around the 8 min mark. YHC no longer has a fancy GPS watch so distance and pace are difficult to keep track of.

With Winklevoss and Crash Test Dummy getting ready to graduate later this afternoon YHC needed a bit of normal to start the morning. 5:30 and it looks like YHC is on his own for the day. Headed to Twin Team for some repetition. 5 times up and down the hill and back to the flag, mission accomplished. For those of you with younger kids, watch out it goes quicker than you think.

3 runners posted at the slowly reopening River Run AO to see where Doozy wanted to take them. An OG River Downs 5 mile route was called Circle around by JRHS to the front of River Downs take the second left up the little hill, turn right at the stop sign and head to Gumbo’s house. At Gumbo’s house turn around in the cul-de-sac and head back the same way you came. Numbers / Names NMS: YHC wanted to incorporate some hill work but still thought the mileage was good, perfect for the River Downs route. YHC did have to…

Two grizzled vets posted to River Run to put in some work. The Twin Team hill beckoned, but with age comes wisdom, so the PAX decided to sneak up on it from behind. The Tarrington Loop was called, with a bonus lap around BWES at the end to round out the mileage to 5+. Many thanks to Doozy for coming back to pick up YHC on those rolling hills. Numbers, names, YHC took us out. Make it a great one!

It’s been a long time since YHC had the Q much less seen Betty Weaver ES on a Monday morning. There was some mumblechatter on slack Sunday night about River Run, but 5 road warriors liked the route and we were all up for a 5 mile run. 0530…time to run. Until we saw Boberry coming in hot and circled back to scoop him. 5 mile route-Up Twin Team, Right on East Brigstock and running to the where Brigstock changed to Netherfield and back to BWES! Boberry had to boogie to work. Numberama, Namerama, Announcements: Puppy Pile this Saturday, 0700…

What happens when Doublemint and Doozy get together? They go looking for a hill to tackle. No warm up just a straight run up and down Twin Team X3 followed by a lap around JRHS track and back to BW Numbers / Names Doublemint took us out NMS: Had a long conversation with the custodian from BW after our run. She has a very caring heart and is exactly who I would want to be watching my kids as they go through the halls of BW. She did tell us about her son and some of the trouble he is…
