It’s fine, its a dry heat

15 idiots PAX decided it would be a good idea to hit their 2nd workout of the day and run 4-6 miles in 96 degree heat.  It was a slog but we made it through.  The temptation of some fresh beer at Vinter’s is likely the true driving force to get these guys out, but either way…

The Thing:

Just like last week, and the week before, and the week before that:  Run.  4-6 miles of hills

Moleskine:

Someday, someone will catch Brady on this run.  Yesterday was not that day.  Apparently Turkey Leg and Dan (FNG) hung with him until 4 Mile Creek, and then it was over.

Seemed like a big group taking a few random routes today to get 4-5 miles total, the heat must have kept them from the full 6, that and trying to avoid 4 mile creek.

Mr. Bean and Cheese Curd had a solid 6 mile run coming in right behind the leaders.

Slim Fast was there at the beginning and not to be seen at the end.  His car was gone, so I assume he wasn’t abducted in broad daylight.

During some BRR email chatter it was recommended Dan (FNG) who is on Mercury’s Minions should not be named until the middle of the night during the race, hoping for some good fodder by then.  Radar seemed outwardly angry by such a move and might consult management.  Either that or Radar is just generally outwardly angry, I am not sure.  There seemed like enough ground swell that I doubt Dan will get away with another post and not being named.

Thanks to Mr. Brady for the send-off

Next week:  Same time, same place, same weinke.

There are occasions where come up with a bad. Or even change a name later. But I’ll be daggum if we are going to start deferring names for two months. That’s kooky talk.

My top three choices:
Zippy the Pinhead
Mr. Teeny the Chain smoking monkey, or
Bumsniffer.

Let the naming commence.

My name nomination: Parking Lot.

Regarding the run…..i clearly have issues to do that for a beer….or do i? Beer doesn’t solve any problems, but then again, neither does milk.

I am generally outwardly angry. I knew management would not go for it.

I suggest Dry Heat
