The Pub was open for business

A bunch of men showed up to run the Pub.  Defib had the parking lot cleaned up with fresh mulch.  #Leadership

Today was a special day as the Q (YHC) honored the site Q by calling the Defib route, but in REVERSE!

Run out Hoffman, right on Robinwood, Left on Windyrush, right n Riding Trail, Right on Willow Creek, Left on White Willow, right on Armstrong Park and back to the Pub.

There were ruckers there doing some work with Flintstone as Q at Diablo.  When YHC returned to the flag, YHC found a weinke for Diablo in the freshly mulched bed.  You hate to see it.  Plus the weinke was much bigger than mine.  I hate to see it.

Whoopee, who rucked, said there were ladies there that got hot and bothered upon seeing the manly ruckers, but YHC informed him that all the ladies had just run past all the Pub runners.  Everybody knows the Pub is where the ladies are.  Next week my guess is shirts will be off and the primal rituals of the rutting ruck season will begin.  (See what I did there?)

Announcements:

NEW AO ALERT!  Welcome to SNOOZE, McAdenvilles first seasonal workout beginning at 0645 on Fridays for the summer.  Starting soon.

Always an honor to lead and YHC appreciates Def Leppard making the drive to see his people on the southeast side.

Welcome an FNG to the PUB!

It was a great morning for a run and Purple Haze brought an FNG out to a running AO!  The young man is a former collegiate soccer player and younger than most PAX so he should be running laps around most of us in no time.  Welcome Roofie!

The Pub had ten runners and with the FNG the Q modifed the route for safety and simplicity.  Run out to Robinwood towards the greenway and turn around for 5 miles.  Waterboy and I traded bad dirty jokes for the first half.  It is hard to execute the punch line while gasping for air.

Announcements:

Mar 4 Extinction Run at Primal at 0900.

February 11 the Folsom Winter National 0630.  All other AO’s closed

Purple Haze plans on eating lunch today.

Prayers for Breaker Breaker, Termite, Huckleberry, Praise for Purple Haze and a preparedness lesson

The numbers are still strong and the pushing rocks challenge is still working.  It will be fun to see what the numbers are for January compared to previous years.

Aye!

Reverse Kotter Route

The Pub was open with nice weather and a bunch of PAX ready to push rocks at either the PUB or the Diablo Sammich.  It is nice to see the numbers increasing in January.  Kudo’s to our First F Q Flintstone for getting the Pushing Rocks Challenge off to such a great start.

The five mile pub route was the Defib Kotter route in reverse.  Run up Robinwood, right on Robinwood, Right on Hudson, Left on Windyrush, Right on Riding Trail, right on Willow Creek, Left on White Willow and right on Armstrong Park Road and back to the start.  It was a fast pace but enjoyable because it broke up into small groups of runners.  The fellowship was great and not only did YHC run fast, but also almost secured some employment while on the run.

Saturday 50 miler for charity starting at Old School at 0530.

February 11th….The Folsom Winter Nationals!

Prayer Requests:

Radar’s sister with cancer

Brokes family

Termite and his family

In COT, YHC noted that is was 10th annual Gio Day which celebrates Giovani Bernard’s 73-year punt return touchdown which helped the Tar Heels defeat the Workpack. For all but a handful of people to ever walk the Earth, this is an irrelevant event. However for those that care, it mattered. If you ever want to hear why, post at The Pub one morning, and we’ll talk about it during a mosey around SOGA.

Defib and his band of Merry Men

Today at the PUB we had some EC going on.  Defib and Flintstone went for a 3 mile EC mosey before the workout.
Time Frame had the sub Q for Diablo Sammich and had Tube and just as we left the lot, Bandit and Goose appeared for a ruck! #Kotter

Sargento was there before the beginning of the run but left with several minutes to spare so he didn’t get credit for the BB.  You hate to see it.

Anyway, YHC decided to call the Dangerous Route.  There was some debate on whether this was the original PUB route.  Anyway, a disclaimer was given to jump the guard rail if the stretch without a sidewalk was too precarious.  Also, instructions were given to mosey behind the Walgreens to avoid the stretch where there is no outlet. #safetyfirst

We ran and once we crossed New Hope we go down on Pamela.  There seemed to be unspoken performance anxiety at that point.  Anyway, once we were on our way up Gardner Park Drive there were some ladies approaching on the right.  Termite puffed out his chest and then took a spill so we stopped and collected what was left of him.  We let him lead at that point to ensure his safety and he broke away for the next little bit, obviously energized by the shock of the spill and adrenaline dump.

We arrived back to start and everyone was better for it.

Backwards Toward the Bank

YHC has had a long day which started about 0052 this morning so this will be brief.

YHC moseyed to The Pub and found the PAX stretching and catching up, or getting in some EC.

Route was announced. Reverse route down Armstrong, left turn on Armstrong, left turn at the bank and onto New Hope, right on E Lee, left on E Perry, right on Armstrong.

The Pledge. And we’re off…

Some ran that route, some did another route, some got turned around. Good work put in by all.

Lucky 11

Yes, March 17th is Saint Patrick’s Day. It is also my youngest 2.0’s birthday. So he would play into the choice for the route on this day’s mosey through SOGA.

YHC ran the usual 1-mile EC into The Pub to find other PAX also running all over The Pub lot. There was so many folks in motion that YHC did a double-check on my watch to make sure YHC wasn’t an hour late. Whoopee, Roscoe, and Stroganoff were coming from the far end, Breaker was coming up by McDonald’s, and Waterboy ran up behind me from Gaston Day School Rd. You can tell we are in the heart of relay and race season with all the work being put in.

PAX gathered together. It was good to see Burgandy back with us. Strava tells me that he’s putting in work all the time, but it was good to have him run with us.

The Pledge.

The route. My M had painted the rock at Hawk’s Nest for our 2.0’s birthday so we were going to mosey by it on the way to Martha’s and back to check out her artwork.

Some of us ran in a group and got to hear Waterboy’s fascinating tales of his time in Indonesia. If you can keep up with him, it’s work it for those stories. On the way back, Roscoe urged me to stop at the rock for a picture. He then provided the push on the way back to The Pub as we worked to catch up with the rest of the group.

Announcements
Slaughter with the Q downtown tomorrow (yes, this is in time so that it’s still tomorrow)

Taper Run at the Pub

Arriving at the PUB I noticed two cars in the lot.  Breaker Breaker along with Serena and Defib were moseying around the area.  In comes Waterboy on foot and then Sarento, Oompa Loompa, and then JJ comes running in as usual.  It was in the 50’s this morning and JJ was without his normal UNC beanie but he did have on long pants and long sleeve shirt.  We need to discuss his Steve at a later date.

Waterboy was wearing all black and it was very foggy this morning.  He explained that it is “reflective”.  When a car sees him at the last minute and swerves, he “reflects” upon his life.

The route was called out as the Robinwood to Greenway and back route which allows for only one main street crossing and all sidewalks.  #safetyfirst

Some modified the route due to multiple Dam to Dam participants running in less than 48 hours.  Defib brought out the “bands” and we stretched a little waiting for the PAX to return.  As usual, the fellowship was strong.

Announcements:  D2D Saturday,  The Nation’s Nantan, will bring it Downtown to Q.  Bet on a Slaughter Starter on March 18th.

Prayer Requests:

Our Country, Ukraine, Waterboy’s friend just passed away, Breaker Breaker’s Uncle with Dementia, Round Up and Family,  YHC’s M and FIL, Stroganoff with Bronchitis

 

Always a great day to Q a workout and the Pub is a weekly workout that is a guardrail to get the mileage in and keep pushing the rock.  We are fortunate as a region to have so many great Thursday morning options.  The Goat, the Diablo Sammich, Folsom, and the afternoon Midoriyama has something for everyone.  I hope if you are reading this you are contemplating which AO you will attend next Thursday.  Better yet, get after it tomorrow downtown with JJ as your Q.

Aye!

Roscoe
