While the fog was an unwanted guest, the 50 degrees in mid-December was a nice treat. As the 7 Pax gathered together I couldn’t help but notice the abundance of cars in the parking lot, and then Funhouse reminded me that some fools thought it would be a good idea to get up at 5:00am and run some 13 miles to start their Saturday(smart). Once Senator emerged from the boy’s room, Lugnut kicked us off with a passionate rendition of the disclaimer and then a very short Mosey to the field and we begin.
