Veterans Day Dragon Route
YHC stepped up and crossed the aisle to take the Q at R4TJ today. Apparently, there has always been some beef between R4TJ and TBD, but as co-site Q at TBD, I’ve taken on a minor duty to try to bridge the gap this year plus I’m also adding miles to my repertoire and the guys at R4TJ push me hard and keep me accountable on that end. YHC had a 3 famous hills route at about 5 miles planned, but apparently overnight, some batflipping by some PAX was being planned. Now as I understand it, batflipping is done for all kinds of reasons…some good… some bad. Today’s bat flip was for a great reason. About 2/3 through the route, the pax detoured on a route that took us to the memorial at Veterans Park. We stopped there and spent a few moments of reflection and prayer on those who have served and paid the ultimate cost for our freedom. Like I said… a great bat flip plus it helped us form the dragon route as UTI discovered.
FNG’s: None
Warm Up: Frankenstein’s and Daisy Pickers. Since it is 11/11… we also did 11 Merkins.
The Workout: 10 PAX got in their miles with a few other PAX sightings along the way. We ran.
Mary: Once at the flag, we did our last 11 merkins to wrap up.

T-Claps (Recognition): Skidmark for a good flipping idea!
Prayer: Shamwow!, 187, and YHC’s M’s dealing with health issues. Our Veterans and Nation. Let us not waste the health, life, and blessings we are given. Push for something and make your life worth it. Take opportunities to make it cool for somebody somewhere else… serve. Honor to lead!
