I figured I’d do another Star Course edition this morning. I did this almost a year ago on a Sunday with 4 checkpoints and it went pretty good. So I modified it to 3 checkpoints since we only had 45 minutes to work with. Here is the write up… https://docs.google.com/document/d/1OMp9gXRFi8krruu5tJB1tYFoWZmenmcb9E_zSTIO18M/edit?usp=sharing To mix things up, I …
YHC has had a tough time waking up on Monday mornings as of late and usually settles on a 5:45 neighborhood run. Saturday I saw Pop Off at the convergence and he asked when I’d be back to Wander, to which I kind of mumblechuckled but made no commitment. Then Sunday afternoon, we had a …
Motivated by something, 10 of us posted at Wander this AM. Personally, work and personal travel has kept YHC out of the gloom for 2 weeks. It was good to get back out among some of the finest men this town has to offer. Thankfully, Mercy Rule didn’t get us lost. Conditions: 61 degrees The Thang: …
As you, dear reader, may or not be aware, almost a year ago, YHC was enjoying a nice ruck at Wander when I came upon a patch of black ice. This caused my legs to comically fly out from beneath me while the weight of my ruck carried me to the ground. The final result …
YHC took the reigns of Wednesday morning Wander again and decided to try something different. 7 pax beat the fartsack to brave the cold and wind. Welcome, Disclaimer, BOM Weather: 45ish degrees and windy The Thang: The Pax started out like normal, rucking down main street. When we arrived at the 9/11 memorial we circled up …
5 PAX in the Wander gloom this morning. We used the time to pray over the Lexington Elementary School campus: from the Principal to the bus drivers and especially for the kids. Welcome, Disclaimer, and BOM Weather: Mid 70’s and clear The Thang: https://www.strava.com/activities/2631964043 Prayer Requests: *The two firemen who’ve gone missing on a fishing …
So on Friday DriSoket posted on Wander’s message board that he and Argyle had a 4 mile route planned for Sunday (today) that would start at 5:00. So last night YHC confirmed that they were starting at 5:00 (since Sunday is typically a 5:30 start). So DriSoket confirmed with a “yes sir”. Then the AOQ …
With all the chatter yesterday around the GoRuck Star Course event in Charlotte, FOMO was definitely in the air. So YHC decided to Q at Wander and make it Star Course themed. Here’s how it went down… https://drive.google.com/open?id=12GECpPojBIfgyjd4yDomBkNYE5SdGLBf2AfXu3uG1tM Wander STAR Course Checkpoints Lexington County Fire Station World War II Memorial Lexington Medical Center Lexington Lexington …
YHC had the Q today and chose to preview the SAFE Lexington route. We managed to get 2 laps in while it drizzled on and off. Of course the weather cleared just in time to do the COT. The route looked ready for all the runners this upcoming week. Don’t forget to sign up to …
Dearest Martha, I am overcome with joy at the opportunity to write to you once again. While this time away from you tears at my heart, it strengthens me to know that you are waiting for me and longing for my ****REDACTED****. Honestly, I was beginning to worry that this was not …
