10 10 Road of Hard Knocks

When I posted the twitter pre blast warning of “devastation”, I thought it would just be another Twitter scare tactic. Then, when pulling into Dante’s 10 minutes before start, no one was around.  I thought to myself, “wow”, everyone took that Tweet seriously last night.  All the sudden, here they come.  Two minutes before start time and the whole PAX rolls up as one unit.  It literally went from no one to all 18 in a matter of 1 minute it seemed.  Despite the odd arrival phenomenon, the coin toss went to the good guys, so no devastation, just hard knocks.

  • Franklin almost passed Grease on two or three laps, I swear he is posting in North Raleigh during the week
  • It was dark.  I had plans for the field if devastation occurred, and that would have been challenging in this gloom today
  • Runners showed up today (old maid, hot spot, grease, Khakis, sour mash)  Good timing
  • Good to see nature boy

 

It was an honor to lead you men this morning.
