THE THANG: Back when Seabiscuit first started up, the area was by no means as developed as it is now. I decided to resurrect an old Seabiscuit OG route – head down Whites Rd. Except this time instead of running along the FM Parkway to Whites, we cut through the neighborhood by the middle school, then down Whites to the first roundabout. Back in the day it mostly ended there, out and back. We were able to dip into Waterside to the roundabout on Bryson Gap, then back to COT. Back in the day we saw more deer and heard more coyotes. Now we heard one coyote but saw a ton of cars. The route is still pretty safe, has some good, albeit misleading hills. They’re adding sidewalk all down Whites from the Parkway to Waterside. Once that’s done, this will be an excellent, safer route. Overall abput 4.2 miles round trip.
MARY: None
ANNOUNCEMENTS: FAST FIVE!!
COT: A lot of good P&P lifted up.
Don’t be afraid to share your burdens in COT. Guys tend to hold them in. That can be terrible for your mental and physical health.
Thanks for the opportunity to lead.
