Elevator’s Broken. Take the Stairs.
YHC missed the inaugural running of the Wolverine, so I made sure that it was going to be the route again this week. Conditions: COLD, but PAX were shedding layers after the first lap! Disclaimer and Explanation of new course As a Buckeye fan, there is no way I could ever let something named Wolverine […]

13 Pax posted for the weekly “out-and-back” run. 22.5 minutes out and 22.5 minutes back. Mother Nature decided to give us a little bit of rain, but not enough to make it unbearable.
