PAX: Bed Bug, Suede, Airbag, Webelo, Woodpecker, Interference, Zuckerberg, Shakes, Red Eye, Burlap, Juice Box, Van Gogh, Glazer, 'Bout Time, Balco, Burns (QIC)

 

Honorable Mention: Greenspan, H.O.G.

Being given the opportunity to Q OGs & Tractors is always a treat, because I get to send the PAX up Hawthorne hill (smile emoji with a halo).  Lots of BV-based routes recently made me even more eager to do so. YHC designed these routes with the idea of OGs and Tractors runners passing one another around halfway through, deep in the heart of Ardmore. What I didn’t count on was the additional pleasure of seeing Greenspan and H.O.G. enjoying some 2nd F in preparation for tomorrow’s Fellowship of the Idiots run. They wisely didn’t post for a run, but still got up and out walking which was good to see.  YHC got the push from Van Gogh, and we enjoyed some good chatter about bourbon, yesterday’s WIB, WIBs in general, and our children…4 of my favorite things, maybe or maybe not in that exact order. All pax rolled back into HP with plenty of time to spare, except Suede, Webelo, and Juice Box who added an extra lap around the park. JB is prepping for a marathon and Suede & Webelo were kind enough to give him the assist at the end.  It was nice chatting briefly with Webelo and Woodpecker, two newer PAX who have been posting regularly the last couple of weeks. Welcome to the fold, gentlemen!

The routes:

  • OGs – https://www.mapmyrun.com/routes/view/4185315931

BAM needs volunteers for GreeNest tomorrow – if you have the hours between 9-11 free, consider helping out. Kids are welcome.

Prayers for our runners doing the Idiot run tomorrow. To my knowledge that includes Palin, Greenspan, H.O.G., and Honey Badger, and I’m sure there are others. Godspeed and good health, men!

Thanks for the keys, BALCO. Don’t give em back unless you want to climb Hawthorne again!
