Moleskin:

  • Runstopper wanted to go through the Wendy’s drive thru on the way to the fountain.  If we ever have breakfast during one of my Q’s, it’s going to be at Chik Fil A.
  • After completing the GoRuck over the weekend the most difficult exercise for me this morning was the lunge walk of all things.  Who would have thought?
  • The gal in the bread truck said, “There goes all those men exercising again!”.  Being in the middle of a bear crawl, all I could muster was a “Good morning, ma’am.”.
  • Thanks to everyone for allowing me the opportunity to do this.  Hopefully we’ll try it again sometime soon.

Announcements (from TR):

  • Devil’s Turn:   NEW LOCATION TOMORROW.  You’ll meet at the green way entrance at Rea and Bevington (near Trader Joe’s and Starbucks).  Time and format are the same.  Since The Shore has traded his running shoes in for a spandex Clif Bar unitard, I’ll go ahead and write the backblast for it:  “We ran that way for 2 or 3 miles.  Then ran back.  Something funny may have happened, too.”
  • Hydra on at 0530 tomorrow.  Meet at Food Lion and run in.  Someone will tweet about that nonsense later.  It’s about to get Untapped up in there.
  • Day Zero Saturday:  Go to McAlpine Elementary for Day Zero, 0700 to 0800.  Purple Haze is on Q.  Nicest turf in town.
  • F3/Dads – A51 Remix  Saturday 0900 – 1000 at Beatty Park.  All ages and genders welcome.  Header on Q.  Be on the lookout for the preblast regarding meeting place.
  • DMZ:  New A51 workout starting Monday June 3, 0530 – 0615.  Meet at Carmel Park on Carmel Rd.  Skywalker and Hops on Q.
  • HDHH at Vintner’s Wine Market at Arboretum, 1800-1930.  Meet at Food Lion and run in.
