BRR is right around the corner, and this morning’s route reminded me that I’m kinda glad that I’m not running it this year, or at least am glad that I haven’t been training for it. Hills suck. They really suck when it’s relatively hot and humid. In spite of that, 16 of the Dash’s finest and Mongoose ran the following routes:
OGs: ~6.2 miles

Announcements
- Schmedfest next weekend, 8/24, Schmed-lympics that morning, beer truck involved.

- A new round of GAS groups are being formed – connect with Hazer for more info. You should do it.
NMM
- Winklevoss told me that people kept calling out something like “A Hole” throughout the route, but the footing was fine.
- Much discussion and consternation about the activity buses in the parking lot. Really.
- Velvet may be directionally challenged, but the dude can run well in sandals. Looked like he might be trying out for a new 300 movie.
- Only 37 days until the Autumnal Equinox.
Thanks for the keys, Vig.
SYITG,
