With 5 weeks to go, 24 pax did the harder thing and posted in the rain. T-Claps to all the XL-er and double T-Claps to Bing and Ken Doll for going BIG with a XXL!
Many of the runners completed the whole route without getting lost. Thats awesome! Only problem was the trailer that was parked on the dirt drive connecting Coventry with Corley. I’m told to expect a strongly worded email because of that.
The HUGO announcement was that the route could be run backward for those who wanted to. Cowbell and his dog Winston did just that. Thanks for giving us the heads-up on the trailer. Next week I plan to try it too.
