June 16th Run-Fruit Loop

We had an average turn out for the group run. We ran the Fruit Loop. Some of us were in a hurry, so we did not stop at the Brady's on 19 RD but appreciated the opportunity; The runners included Silvia (who should come every time), John, Jason, Suzy, Kami, Kellie, and Michelle. (Click on pictures to enlarge)

There was some mumbling about not stopping. At about the 4 mile point with Kellie and Kami thinking they were in College again, (they have babies) running as if it were the Olympic Trails, stopped to see how far everyone was behind them and then took off again. Michelle uttered a few words of condemnation and added a few comments in sign language (in case there were deaf people around, she is always so considerate)
Jason assumed there would be water at about the same point, but there was none. His spirits sank and was not the same the rest of the run. Michelle said she was going to put water out.....there was water at the Brady's-Silvia's Parents house- about 7.5 miles into the run. Suzy was feeling better after some health issues last week.

Silvia ran with the Yester-Year College girls to the Brady's. The group split up at about that point as the number of miles needed and schedules dictated running back.

In the end John and Jason sat in his pool, enjoying the coolness. Kami, who ran farther showed up later. It seems that Jason did not check on the kids before going into the pool. I assume they have worked it out. Leave comments below:

There were some issues with the run as the starting time was not clear. Some FRunners were up a bit earlier than others. Betsy was up early. We had some first time runners with us; Jeena and Lindsey. Also Janice and Hiedi who do not run with the group much. We also saw Melanie and Sheri (?) running.

Herd on the Run:
"People go down this road too fast and I am going to be hit"--Old Crazy Man walking down the middle of the road, so people would slow down
"Pool syram"-Jason-Mary's Loop Backwards
"I am running by myself" Jason B.-after seeing all the ladies-(He needed 16 miles-far more than the rest of us)
Doug learned some jokes at Training-something about a rat-Michelle
"Did you go to Jimmy Johns"-Kellie

Course: Mary's Loop backwards for some, That plus Horse Thief for others and More Fun and Mary's for Jason. From 5 miles to 16 depending on the route.

The runners: Jeena, Lindsey, Hiedi, Janice, Carla, Jill, Betsy, Kami, Suzie, Michelle, Jason B., Jason L, Kellie, Kami -For some reason no picture of Kami and Jill-must of been in the Ladies Room.
