    The Venti is all things to all people! The Venti succeeds because it’s shorter beatdown that allows us more time to lift each other up with a coffee saunter back to the start!

    A gentle breeze tampered the humidity. The Pax sojurned up through Tulane and the Cemetery Route!

  • 24032 Venti -RCR – from Sea Man

    In celebration of RCR, a massive wave of PAX sojourned into the gloom towards the river! Even Whoppers Delicate Machine was eager for a Double Esspresso! The Venti now consists of 3 Routes:

    Route 1 – The Esspresso – AKA IR Layup a walk down St Charles to Adams and to Starbucks
    Route 2 – Venti – down uptown side of the park, across Magazine, first right to the levy, sprint up the levy post Army Corps, to Carrolton to Starbucks.
    Route 3 – Grande Venti – down the uptown side of the park and continue round past the Golf Course. Cross Magazin towards the Grotto and Avenger Field then follow the levy to the standard Venti.

    We all rallied at Starbucks, for Dong Phong where exceeded the dBs of Baristas ears. We filed down Magazine like a bunch of middle aged Frat Dudes + O’Dulles + Tree Frong + Bubbles. TUPD was very confused as they past us.

    A lot of guys have been bringing their 2.0s on these runs and it has been fun. Routes 2 & 1 are done a clydesdales talking pace.

    Talking is the mission of the venti! Back in March a guy Justin Erenworth took his life and left a wife and 2 young kids with a lot of questions. Recentlly Peppa has had 2 HIMs from his Navy days take their life, and just last week Wilson & I, our friend lost their 16 yr old to suicide. So this give us a time to talk and be there for one another. Not everyone can stick around for coffee or “COFFEE” w/ Almonaster!

    A chilly and quiet Audubon Park welcomed the pax! To the levy departed where an oncoming train dictated a change in route up Lower Line to St Charles, to Carrolton, to SB. The audible route added an extra .25 mile to the run. Pace maxed at 10:09. Devised a new aspect, the IR Layup. Pax on IR may saunter straight to SB and then return with rest of pax.
