YHC dropped the ball and let our original RunForgiven AO go by the wayside a few months back, so it was nice to have the opportunity to re-launch it today.  Gaylord, Momma’s Boy, and YHC have talked a lot about starting it back up with a change of venue…the BCHD.  This site gives us the ability to run routes in Smallwood and Macswoods, two of the rare areas in Washington with any elevation whatsoever.

As we were waiting in The Gloom for 0515 to roll around, two of our rucking friends showed up with their bookbags.  There’s no better way to warm up for a run than to just get moving, so off we went.  Imagine YHC’s surprise when Bob the Builder and Double D took off running with us with their bookbags on.  This run was somewhat of a recon run…exploring routes and seeing where the best hills were located.  Lots of MumbleChatter about how insane the “Murph” will be on Monday.We wrapped up a few minutes early to get in some stretching…including Double D’s “DeCalfinaters”.

COT–prayers for Cornhole’s sister

Announcements–Momma’s Boy shoulder tapped/voluntold to be the Q for RunForgiven, Memorial Day “Murph” Convergence on Monday at BLP

Moleskin–What a privilege and honor it is to have developed such great friendships through F3.  Friday is typically an “off day” for most of our PAX, but you throw the opportunity to post out there and 8 guys show up.  No better way to start the day than getting in all 3 Fs.  TClaps to the ruckers who ran with their bookbags on (DISCLAIMER:  cadre did not check the weight on their rucks beforehand).  Also, TClaps to Cornhole.  His family has been through a lot over the last few years, and he’s now putting in the time and work for himself.  His prolific posting since joining is an inspiration.
