NMM:

  • YHC got an Outlook reminder of his Q responsibilities on Wednesday afternoon while driving from Fort Mill, SC to Raleigh. YHC yanked the Yota across three lanes of traffic on I-40, crossed the rumble strip, and, upon coming to a complete stop, sent Balco an apology for the tardiness in route posting.  Balco was forgiving; our Spamtan (who decided to go to another running workout this morning after seeing the routes) and Mongoose, however, joined forces to let the universe know for all of posterity about YHC’s sins.
  • The intention was to give folks a warm up for the Ardmore RAH in October. The last stretch of Cherokee up to Bolton on the OGs course, which is not on the route for the RAH, is a *#&$#@.  Wink agreed.  The rest was cruise control for the pax.
  • Great to have Little Piggy back in town and be able to run with him. He hasn’t lost a step.  Our duo had to stop suddenly on our way up Cloverdale at 1st Street to avoid being run over by Snooki.  YHC assumed Snooki was on his way to the park for the run but found out later he continued another 1.3 miles to Bailey Park for Zima’s UA Q.  #badchoicesinlife

Thanks for the keys, Balco.  I left them in the stream at the bottom of the hill on Cherokee.

    Alas, YHC had the Q at #BBBC. Quick question for the Pax….how many of you have posted at both OG/Tractors and #BBBC? Not on the same day. But as in….ever? Ok, so what I am asking is how many of you have EVER posted at #BBBC? Or VI? Or the Distillery? Yep, they are all located in #WeFoCo. Worth the effort and minimal increase in driving time. Do yourself a favor and make the trek.
