The ruck and run started off with four drunk (most likely college) youngsters finishing the night as we were starting our day. Someone may have puked on a PAX’s truck and they went on to say “We love you guys”. The ruckers did a Greenway loop and someone was almost left behind in a port-a-john, no reported tipping of the port-o-john. Runners did a very simple box loop that had 72 turns, but avoided busy roads as much as possible. Slim fast and Quick shot fell off quickly and were found before Name-O-Rama, sorry to leave you behind guys. Runners ended the run with six other youngsters just finishing their night, I pray all of them stay safe.
