Cherry Bomb actually did trails, joined at finish.  Also missing Mr. Holland’s girlfriend’s dog (has that fluffy beast been named yet?).  Also missing Barnaby, Barnacle, SpongeBob SquarePants… until I realized Mr. Holland was just messing with me on the pax names.  Damn, I am gullible.  

Route was down into business park loop (YHC got a BIT turned around exiting the parking lot)… Julian Clark – McCoy – Stratton Farm – Angel Oak – Greenway to the back of Publix – cross Gilead and fin.  5.0-5.3 miles in the books.  Felt like a nostalgic old Odyssey route.

Huge mea culpa to the pax for completely missing on COT & name-o-ramma.  What the hell, Jaws?!  I think I was just getting the caffeine itch, and there’s no better value for a cup of Joe than Lowes on Friday!  Top of mind for prayers this morning is our brother Crab Legs and more specifically his M.

I’ve been missing coffeeteria after a run, with the Starbucks in Birkdale closed for renovations it’s been a few weeks since I’ve had a good social run & coffee with the pax on a Friday, so it was great to be a tourist and get that back for a week.  Thank you Sac and Omar for being ruthless pace bullies, and Slingshot for the opportunity to Q.  Best of luck to all the Dam-to-Dam runners this weekend, and all the pax training for all the things!
