Tag: The Pub (Page 18 of 19)

One showed in the gloom a The Pub.

I ran.

I saw a girl with a dog.

I saw two women walking.

I saw one dude running.

Upon returning to The Pub, a group of women runners had just arrived back there also.  I think they thought I was stalking them.

The end.

Aye.

Two in the Thursday gloom at The Pub.

We ran.

YHC absorbed the vast wisdom dealt out by Monk.  Post on a Thursday for a worthwhile lesson.

It was nice to lead a workout on my Dad’s 74th Birthday.  Happy Birthday big guy!!

Until the next one.

Aye!

We ran. It was humid.

Thanks for the opportunity to lead.

Until the next one.

Aye!

3 cool people showed up to the Pub and we ran a little over 5 miles.

Outhouse ran a getting it back modified coarse. But, we all ended at the same time.

Great to see Outhouse back in the gloom.

Today was like running in a pool under water with concrete tied to our waste in humidity. But we did the run and that was better than all the fartsackers did.

August we are looking at a date for Mt. Mitchell up and down for the weekend of the 18th. Have picked which day. But, we would leave early get it done and come back.

Pray for our brother who lost his life running in SC. I did not know or I would have gone sleeveless for sure.

Gastone Out!

4 men crawled out of the fartsack this morning for another addition of the “The Pub”.

The Thang:

We ran 5 miles from Publix around to Gardner Park and back to Publix.

The Moleskin:

Good crowd of guys Whoopee was a little gassy. Him and Defib did a little doctor talk before we ran out. But, basically we ran and talked and then returned.

Prayers for Mr. Ownbey who is a friend of Stroganoff’s and I am a friend of his daughters. He has made his journey to the great kingdom.

Gastone Out!

It was still dark when YHC pulled into the parking lot at Publix. I secretly hoped no one would show so I could just go home.

Nope, here comes Gastone. That’s what I get for posting on Twitter the night before.

A little mumblechatter. No warm up. Let’s go.

We ran away and then ran back.

It was cool.

We finished with some classic arts & literature.

Thanks for the push Gastone

Until the next one. Aye!

When Monk sent out a tweet yesterday asking for a Q for The Pub, I realized we could have a small crowd this morning.  However, I didn’t know how small the crowd would be until I showed up, and there was no one there yet.  I’d tell you that while I waited I did a warm up of 50 burpees, 100 flutter kicks, and 200 merkins.  You’d never know if I did or didn’t unless you got the security footage from Publix at which point you’d know that I didn’t in fact do any of that.  However, I did sit in my car and think through several options which included 1) going back home and going into work early, 2) going through the McDonald’s drive-thru for a biscuit and sweet tea, and 3) actually getting out in the 22 degree cold and running.  Since the P200 is next weekend and I need the work, I chose option 3.

Once the clock hit 5:33, I realized this party was going to be a solo journey so I took off, but not with a flash, more of a slow lumber.  Since I’m originally from Shelby and not from the big city of Gastonia, I give directions with landmarks and not road names.  I started on the road towards Panera past McDonald’s and through the stop light.  I went through the next stop light and took a right at the stop light at CVS.  I ran past Ashbrook High School and took a right at the stop light at the Rite Aid.  I ran down the hill and through that stop light.  I took the second entrance into the Publix shopping center next to McDonald’s.  My watch said that was 3.16 miles so we’ll put that down as fact.  It was an abbreviated run compared to normal but a run nonetheless.

Even though you guys weren’t there this morning to chase (I’m typically the Six at The Pub), just know that you were still pushing me to get better.
