A PAX of one climbed out of his fart sack two days after completing 3 runs and 1 workout in less than 28 hours to get in a tapering run. This is it went down Route: Head out of the Atlee parking lot down the service road to Honey Meadows. Loop around Honey Meadows then back up to the parking lot getting in a little over 3 miles. Complete a couple of sprint exercises and stretches. Moleskin: Mudface texted YHC last night noting that No Idea and himself will not be posting today. YHC figure this would be a solo…

2 PAX showed up, and here is how it went down. Ran 2 miles, stopping every half mile for 20 burpees, 30 SSH, 40 American hammers, and 50 mountain climbers.  Retrace the route, sprinting for 45 seconds every half mile.  Return to the parking lot, bear crawl long sides, partner carry short sides, mosey to SF for 150 LBC’s, 150 Freddie Mercurys.  Yeah, that’s the ticket…. OR 2 PAX showed up, ran for 3 miles, called it a day. As usual, I have no idea what I’m doing. No Idea

The week started the right away for two runners who descended on Atlee High School parking lot in order to take off on a run that went something like this… Leave the parking lot and follow the road behind the high school around toward the entrance to the Honey Meadows neighborhood. Go through that neighborhood until the cut-through that leads to the Kings Charter neighborhood. Run on the main road until the first clubhouse and turn right. Head on that road, up the hill, turn and return the same way all the way back to the start for a total…

A PAX of two showed up to greet the returning cold and get in some running. We ran out for a while and then ran back. It was good to get back out on the trails and even better when No Idea noticed that the Low Bridge Tree had been removed, significantly lowering the chance that YHC would not get a concussion from running into a face high fallen tree. We did around 3 miles this morning.

3 Davillians climbed out of their fart sacks on a warmer but rainy Monday morning for another addition of the Tomato. This is how it when down: ROUTES YHC headed in an nontraditional way to the front of the schools, down into Honey Meadow, hit the access road to Kings Charter, headed to the front of Kings Charter, across Atlee Station down the sidewalk into Chickahominy Oak and through Summer Duck subdivisions. Back across Atlee Station to front of schools for 4 miles. Completed some parking lot sprints to get in another 1/2 mile. Mudface and No Idea headed the…

A pax of 2 dragged themselves out of bed, made the wise decision to not put on rain gear (?) and headed out for a little run.  YHC and Mudface decided to test running on the cross country trail for the first time in almost a month, and quickly realized they were 0 for 2 on decisions this morning, as it proved very muddy and slippery.  Called an audible, got back on the road, and meandered for a while, amounting to 3 miles in rain that went from a slight drizzle to steady downpour. Hopefully soon it will dry up…
