• Why the Spooky Half-Mile? After working out at District 7 a few weeks ago, @Schedule C commented about how spooky the run down the dark bus road was, “You just expect someone or something to jump out of the woods and grab you at any time” (or something like that).  @Poncho and I had a similar experience on our exploration beatdown of the AO, when we (well, me anyway) were startled by runners coming at us from the other direction. Those runners turned out to be our own shadows on the trees.  @Escalade and I had our spidey-senses tingle when we heard strange noises in the woods during one beatdown. Thanks @Escalade for measuring the round trip journey of the bus road as just under half a mile (.45).
• @SS Minnow has the District 7 Q next week.  Can’t wait to see what he comes up with.

Peace,

Deuce

Boondocks, District 7
