Basically 45 mins of chatter….and other stuff..
Dumb and Dumber – look at the buns on that, he must work out
Yoga pants that are going too far, poop stains are next
OT taking us to a swimming hole to do Merkins
Going to other region AOs and realizing they don’t run at all, and they take F3 very seriously
Horsehead ran by to say hello after launching from….Jonathans
OT took a 17 min shower behind the door of his car after COT
Some serious talk about alcoholism and mental health…affecting many people these days. Lots of lonely dudes out there. Take notice men…you guys are the eyes and ears out there and you never know who might need the most insignificant word of encouragement or advice. You are all leaders and are more powerful and impactful than you know.

Gravity & the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics are Undefeated

Date: 2024-01-26 AO: _area-51 Q: spackles PAX: 49er, geraldo, ductwork, Focker, Water Works, baracus, Hops, puddin_pop FNGs: None COUNT: 9 After a riveting disclaimer that included something about doing what the Q says, not what he does, 9 pax launched into the muggy, schweaty Joust gloom. Puddin promised to make it a full 45 minutes after his Code Brown at Hydra yesterday. T-claps to 49’er for battling through turf toe. BA said everything hurts when he runs…so he walked everywhere. Just kidding. We’re all old and battling old manism and dad bod’s. #ACupSeason is upon us. Work the chesticles. Focker, Water Works and Ductwork were talking shop while making the five trips up to Miss Meyer’s Blue Door during Triple Nickel. Geraldo and BA were talking something about how they’d like to fire a lot of the millenials that report to them. Hops was struggling as per his norm but thankful to be back in the gloom after a stint on IR. Notice anybody missing in the gloom? Well then call him. “As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another” – Proverbs 27:17. The dude who wrote this actually did not really have other men to whom he was accountable in a real way. And his life was a friggin’ mess, and those are his words. Don’t be like him.

Marvin Miles out and back

Date: 2024-01-26 AO: marvin-miles Q: Polly PAX: Kielbasa FNGs: None COUNT: 2 We left the parking lot with plans to just run out 2.5 and come back, with a few wrong turns we got in 5.5 total but the weather was great so no complaints.

Tour de Hills

Date: 2024-01-26 AO: mountain-goat Q: retread PAX: fleetwood, gullah, Insomniac, kilowatt, Pele, retread, slim_fast, Watchita FNGs: None COUNT: 8 WARMUP: Stretch in the parking lot, then right on 51 to Raintree. THE THANG: Tour de Hills was the mission this morning. Four segments consisting of Willow Pond, Smokerise, Windbluff, and Rising Meadow. Threshold pace going out, recover coming back. We returned to SCMS a bit ahead of schedule, and added two laps around the bus lot for good measure. It was much more “enjoyable” to change venues than sticking to one place with endless repeats. COT: Continued prayers for Julie and Lois, and those who need support whether we know or not.
