The title will be explained… Please read on:
12 pax witnessed hills, a sleepy 2.0, cold coffee saved for the Stride XS crew, and meteors on a 4.4 mile loop that strangely resembles our own beloved state. The results are frostbitten male anatomy, possible shrinkage, and a tighter group of guys getting better. Ken Doll was even there to partake!
The Conditions: It was COLD.. 27° and 75% RH (You really couldnt tell since it’s so cold!)
Tha Thang:
Bundle up. Get out of your warm toasty cars…

Wait for the StrideXL to return
Route Explanation again
Prayer
Head right down Main street to Swartz Rd and continue on to Parker St. Turn left onto Lake Dr and a quik right onto Gibson Road. Continue on to Hendrix St and turn right. Turn left onto Church and left on Maiden and return to courthouse parking lot. As you can see the route looks like our state.. unintentional but thanks to Pepto for pointing it out!

So…. the run went really well for all who attended. TCLAPS to Quisenberry for achieving a mile without walking. He is recovering from an injury and has not given up… Awesome to see some old faces come out and run with us again as well.
God gave us a preview of the Geminid meteor shower this morning. YHC saw at least two beauties streak across the sky. More to come from that show in the next couple days.
Now to shrinkage… (let me be careful here… there may be children in the room) an unnamed pax, who is often seen eating candy with a striped hat on, made some twitter comments to the effect of his male anatomy being frostbitten during our run. YHC responded that this was too much info. twice. as the bantor continued and others got involved, he hashtagged #shrinkage. And the rest is history and that unnamed pax wins the most awkward twitter exchange award for the year! Way to go CandyStripe! (oops)
