PAX: Aquaman, Banana Seat, Chips, Coal Ash, Dawgpound, Dumbo, Full House, Lipstick, Moby, Nemo, Redenbacher, Rut, Salsa, Skidmark, Slide Rule, UTI

FNGs: Not Today

YHC decided to leave it up to the PAX to vote on the route for the day. The only stipulation, was you had to HC for the vote to count. The lackluster vote was tallied, and Little Dipper won 2 votes to 1….C’mon Guys, we had 15 and only got 3 HC votes! #bringbackthehc
Warm Up: Mosey to the middle of the road for SSH, IW, Frankenstein, High Knees and Karaoke
The Workout: 5 Mile loop out to Womble and back.
Mary: Stretching while we had announcements
Announcements: F3 The Mule is officially cancelled for Coronavirus. Rain or Shine doesn’t include Virus protection. #jkMidgetwestillkindoflikeyou:)
T-Claps (Recognition): Coal Ash! This man was cruising this morning! Not to overshadow all the impressive work going on out there for Wilmington Race, but this guy has been under the radar, training for a 50K! Keep up the great work Coal Ash!
Prayer: Our legs for Crablegs!

R4TJ: Perfecting the Pete Rose Slide

November 28, 2018/in Running 4 the John /QIC: UTI
PAX: 187, Blue Hen, Chips, Cowboy, Crab Legs, Dumbo, Moby, Salsa, Straight Cash, UTI

^^^ Nick Offerman, the morning after his bourbon by the fire. R4TJ brought it!

Warm Up: 22 degrees outside let’s get warm – Side Straddle Hops, Daisy Pickers, Stretching – Enough standing still… let’s move!

The Workout: Since Crossway was last week and its so dark out we opted for a run down Main. The route stretched into Womble where we took the big loop and came back to Ting. We each came in between 3.1 and 5.5 miles.

Mary: Enough about Mary! We get it, there is just something about Mary…

Announcements: The title of this post is a joke but in all seriousness we had a fall this morning. I believe they are OK but remember to wear your lights (I didnt this morning) and watch your footing. This case was kind of a freak accident (they were wearing their light) but we are approaching the colder months and ice is gonna get real. You can’t always see ice, leaves are down, etc. Be careful!

Prayer: Quiet group this morning, lots of shivering, not much else.

Lipstick Search Party

September 6, 2018/in Running 4 the John /QIC: UTI
PAX: Blue Hen, Brony, Chips, Emeril, Foghorn, Java, Latte, Pablo, Salsa, Sharapova, Slide Rule, UTI

Warm Up: Butt Kickers, Good Mornings, Side Straddle Hops, random call-outs from the group

The Workout: Via Facebook the night before, Lipstick had confirmed that he would be attending Running 4 the John. The PAX began to run but realized Lipstick was nowhere to be found. Emeril and Chips lead a search party (with Salsa) along the normal 5mi route down Main St, turning at the carwash just past Town Hall and up the greenway. They checked all of the Johns along the way hoping to find Lipstick. UTI took a shorter route (~3mi), heading down Main but busting a left at Crossway and heading back down the greenway back towards Ting. The 3mi group checked Lipstick’s favorite bushes as well and he was still nowhere to be found. Java and Latte did their own thing, looking where none of us had thought to look and coming up empty handed…

Ultimately, we discovered Lipstick was just Fartsacking, getting some extra Zs before Blue Ridge after convincing UTI to show up and Run 4 the Johns…

Mary: The 3mi group did some stretching

Announcements: 9/11 Stair Climb

Prayer:

Pre-school aged Clay has started radiation, kids are “wearing grey for Clay” at school

Blue Hen’s sister-in-law Shelby is going into surgery for thyroid cancer

Sliderule and his wife are going to be taking a trip away for the first time leaving their 2 yr old at home.

BRR – Pray for these 12 idiots! We run 200+ miles this weekend
