YHC showed up to the Rutland Club house to an empty parking lot, knowing that some Davillians may run to meet up here, waited until 1 minute past go time…no others, time to run. With no pre-thought out route, started with a reverse Bojangles loop to get the juices flowing, run over the train bridge and turn into Giles and do the loop near their clubhouse. Return back over the Sliding Hill Road Bridge run past the Rutland clubhouse and turn around to a large barking dog (a little shocked sprint) and backup to the intersection u-turn to clubhouse and…

8 guys took some time this morning for a 5k the hard way. Fun times had by all! Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

YHC learned that we would have some F3 Davillians that have not posted at Tomato Run for awhile and with 3 others showing up we went for a 4.3 or 4.6 mile run and see the route below: This was the 4.3 mile run where we ran to back of Atlee HS, then into Honey Meadows, through Taylor Farms back on Atlee Station road turn into Giles to the 1st turn circle and return to the start. the 4.6 Mile run route was the same except that instead of turning into Giles run past turn and take the BoJangle’s loop…

3 Davilians headed out on or weekly run around Daville and this how it went down 20 mins out then 19 mins back. We ended up running the full new loop of Giles which included the unpaved parts. Nice morning for a run SPIT ON THAT!!

2 Davillians decided to skip the hill repeat this morning at VCC and post at the normal spot for Tomato Run. YHC has been MIA for most of October with a sinus infection then late nights with the MLB Playoffs. Infection is most gone and the Braves won the WS so time to get back out there. Knowing that hill repeats would be a great ideal run to return to, YHC decided to reach to Opus about running at Rutland. He agreed and plan was made YHC pulled into the parking lot at 5:27 with no Opus to be found.…

YHC was contacted by Phonics to set up the Tomato Run Time trial site where we have hill repeats as it has been awhile since we have had a morning run at this special location. Here is what went down: YHC shows up, then Phonics and we were expecting Opus as he had the suggestion for this event this morning…so @ 5:31 we left for the hill workout location. This route is perfect in that you get about 1 mile warm up and start at the top of the hill right after you cross I-95 and take a left on…

YHC was planning an easy slow paced run in preparation for the weekend Capital Trail race and see the route below. This was mostly flat and had fun catching up with Trout and Opus on this 4.14 mile run. Numberama, Namerama, Opus took us out in prayer.

5 guys came out to do a modified run this morning. Here is what went down — 4 miles total — every half mile we stopped and did exercises which included merkins, plank jacks, squats, jump squats, crunches and dry docks Clint taught Labrat the correct way to pronounce Italian cities he had been pronouncing wrong all his life. Fun times had by all!

YHC pulled up to see a parked car that seemed like an FNG coming to a run workout. We had an easy 4 mile route, with Opus pulling in to park and Bulkhead running from home we gathered up made some introductions, fired up the headlamps and ran the following 4.25 mile route…typically called the Taylor farm loop. see route below: This was nice so we could show the FNG some other AO venues such as DaVille and where we typically form up to start. Mumblechatter was great, LabRat would have been proud as YHC filled the void of quiet…

Two showed up for Tomato run and we decided to do the Giles loop. Normally this is going Reverse BoJangles and return BoJangle’s this time we just Returned Bojangles for a 3.5 mile run. Great conversation and Opus took us out.
