Ten British scholars gathered in the bowl behind the commons seeking answers to the questions of the day. With the question of who has the Q out of the way, YHC proclaimed the following routes: The Routes Start with the first half of Mount Henrico route to get everyone on University on the west side of Forest 4s take a right on Essex and go up as far as you want before retracing your steps 5s take a left on Arlington Circle, hard left on Sawmill, left on Shelley, right on Keats, right on University and back 6s do the…

Initially 4, then 5, and eventually 6 rolled out to run the roads of the Spiders. No Q on the sheet, not a single 5 or 6 miler in the parking lot, the 4s chose the bridge and off we went. Out 2 miles and back 2 miles. Upon the return Speakeasy had arrived but had bad intel on where to meet and missed the starting block. Enjoyed the run today amigos. -Singer

Be it 2, 3, or 4 legs, 9 took a pass at the Devil’s Pitchfork off Westham Station near the James. Ample elevation for all. Waltz, bad nymph, for quick jigs vex Saab abides

6 gents showed up at UR, listened intently to the route – which was described as simple and straightforward – and you-know-who went the wrong way anyway…. announcements: TYA is at the start of his 6 week marathon on 3 legs. Send him best wishes and patience in his recovery Pickleball is apparently a thing…props to hitch for getting it started…. Not that you will get YHC out on a Monday Saab abides- when he chooses to.

Bakers dozen of Spider common folk arose for a relatively great morning for a run under an SOJ takeover. Routes – see slack – across bridge, through Huguenot Flatwater park, down Riverside to a point depending on mileage. Return to start. Great job F3 amigos. YHC had some prior issues with the trailhead directions but everyone seemed to maneuver the route without incident, whether that be a full toe or just a single toe (well, Splinter isn’t wrong from an aerial view). There was another incident for our 6 mile crew out front of the pack, a unsuspecting female full…

We hit some hills – including owl strike corridor – new roads, a little bit of trail, and the scenic campus tour. Fun was had by all! Hitchhiker took us out. Announcements – Pickle ball tournament coming up. See slack for details and “how-to” videos.

17 eager beavers in need of a bush trimming posted for a Fudd inspired route. Alas, Hitch was not there to manage the landscaping but we ventured out into Westham anyway. A fav route for many returned after a hiatus of several years. #Brocode style made it a nice change from typical split routes…..several 4 milers commented that they worked harder because they knew the 5 and 6 milers were running the whole time, looping back to the Six. After COT there was a minor scuffle between Anthrax’s dog (sorry can’t remember his name) and someone else’s puppy (not sure…
