Summer is winding down, but the called-for rain was holding off until evening as Jim Myers, John Domico, Bob Jones, Tom Cali, John Sheakoski, Jim Moore, Lance Bland, Greg Dillon, Ken Davis, George Lesieutre, Tom Hilands, Frank Zaffino, Mark Fedkin, Jamie Volkert, Michael Goldfine, Dana Todd, Kirk Rager, Rich Harter, Kevin Becker, Paula Jech, and Marty Mazur headed for the track.

The plan was for Gregg Dillon to school some lucky people (those who'd brought notes from their doctors and liability waivers) on the dreaded Supersets workout. You know, the one that will take minutes off your 5K time...if you survive. But the main intended pupil, Costas, was truant. So Bwana gave the Shekoski Progressive Quarters workout: Start in lane two. Run a full lap, timed. Move to lane 3. Run a lap, only it has to be faster. Etc, out to lane 7 (at least). It's a good pacing workout, best not to start too fast.

Later, there was discussion of acquiring a "DCR Trophy" that would be passed to each year's winning DCR team. The trophy would have the team name and team members' names engraved on it. It would include the three past winners. Stipulation: the trophy has to be ugly. Suggestion: A "major award" leg lamp like the one from "A Christmas Story".

So who will be winning a Major (Ugly) Award from Bwana this week? Well, the truant Costas, of course. The guy's the number 2 on my team! He needs to train! And while we're at it, where was the rest of my team? Rob? Jessica?, Alan? Mark? C'mon, you really don't expect me to get the Lamp Award on my own, do you? We've gotta get a leg up on these other people, especially since Team Elijah already has the two biggest sandbaggers AND the two biggest post-draft pick-ups!
