Stolen car keys beat stolen car

Click bait title? Check.

True? It would pass the Snopes test.

What was intended, in jest, to be a first person narrated BB provided from the point of view of fictional Pip (Great Expectations) succumbed to Fake News, though it is true that Agony temporarily “stole” my “well hidden” car key #AirQuotes #NoItWasNotOnTheTire.

So what happened?  It was frickin’ cold, ice hole.  We all ran 6 miles and then 3 of us stuck around for a Decaf version of coffeeteria.  Decaf because Retread got takeout (declining the fellowship component), YHC was the only one to eat a donut, SemiGloss bought them to take home, and Agony is going through some kind of caffeine (substance, not the workout) detox, and enjoyed smelling his Decaf way too much.  Probably easier for YHC to give up beer than coffee….but, right..back to the story.

As is the nature of this thing, it is almost impossible to keep up with everyone, so YHC can either make up hijinx that occurred to others (not the first time), or discuss at length some minutiae of a relatively uneventful run.  Decision is to wax poetic about how Frasier kindly hung back to keep YHC on pace, refusing to let him die (metaphorically speaking) on that final hill like planned, all while not breaking a sweat as he practiced his conversational French (oui, c’est arrivé), which was surprisingly clear of Southern twang for an App guy.  Suppose one easy day was warranted after a sub-18 5k this weekend while also gearing up for P200 Ultra, but who among us hasn’t done those back to back?  Not all roses, though, as he somehow managed to confuse Prohibition for SemiGloss – don’t take that the wrong way as it was from at least 100 yards away in a blinding wind storm, surely strong enough that Whore’sHead’s eyebrows couldn’t break it.  Run finished with Frasier encouraging some guy (thought to be SG, turns out to be some Rando) to “Come on, sprint the last 1/4 mile” to the “finish”, and then let YHC “win” #MoreAirQuotes.  Yep – just a typical Donut Run.

Thanks to SemiGloss for the takeout, complete with a “boom – knowledge dropped” closing.  Yep, that also happened.

Announcements

Smokey Mtn Relay team (April 21) may be looking for one more – contact Cheese Curd

BRR Ultra team with pimped out “van” (cough illegal camper cough) may need a Sixth – see Agony.

Sundancer is almost “old”.

That’s all, folks.

I love the Donut Run. I love it so much that I even get credit for attending when I was actually fartsacking. Thanks Kirk! I was planning to come but talked myself out of it. Decided that nobody in the 8:15-8:30 group would show up in this morning’s Arctic conditions. I should have known SG would be there. My bad. See you next week.
