Death Coffee?


There is a conversation going on in the Lost Souls Ragnar group chat about death coffee.

We're trying desperately to plan for how to manage some of the caffeine addictions. Some of the team members, not me, but some can apparently get borderline homicidal without regular coffee infusions. Again, not me. I'm always pleasant. But I want everyone to be comfortable.

So someone...maybe Sam?...threw this out there as an option.

Death Wish Coffee

And, of course, several team members jumped on board and ordered their own. They have yet to actually drink it, though.

As the brains of the team, I am waiting to see how the others react to it before I try it...


It's possible we may have a few openings on the team soon if anyone is interested in joining us.

I'm taking bets in the form of donations to our fundraiser on who has the worst reaction to said coffee. (hint: it will be the chick with the central tremor)

Noke Bio: Ercilia - The Adorable One AFTER Coffee

Image
This is Ercilia Sometimes we call her the Adorable one, but only AFTER we've had coffee. Definitely NOT at 4am before we've even figured out where our coffee is. Her friends call her Celia. However, we have officially nominated her as Ms. Congeniality. (Although, I'm not really sure why. There was this one time that I thought she was calling me hot stuff, but it turns out she was just talking to herself. Whatever.) Celia has two sisters, a niece that she adores, and parents that have been married for 50 years (I know, right?). Chad forced Ercilia to join the Ragner. Wait. No. That's not right. She's Ercilia. She jumped at the chance because she's Ercilia. (Have you met her? She's Ercilia.) She loves the idea of doing something different and that the Ragnar is a chance to work as a team and rely on other people. Her enthusiasm and perspective highlight the focus of our chosen charity, Girls on the Run. Here are the weird things you should...

Noke Bio: Melvin - The Peer Pressurer

Image
This is Melvin Melvin likes pain and misery. Melvin likes to peer pressure friends into taking on ridiculous challenges and then gets all in his feelings when those friends call him bad names for it. Melvin, apparently Melvo to some people and Freak to others, started running six years ago. He crossed running a 5k off of his Bucket List (seriously, people, are you working on those Bucket Lists???) and then he was hooked. He hired a personal trainer to get him through a Rugged Maniac and then moved on to marathons. He has completed five marathons, including the Blue Ridge Marathon three times (I've mentioned the awesome involved in crossing a BRM finish line, right?) He's run one 50k and has his sites set on a 50 Miler...one day. Now, if you ask Melvin, he will tell you that he was tricked into joining the Ragnar team. That would be a lie. The honest truth is, Melvin likes to do stupid things. It just is what it is and the sooner he owns that, the easier life will be ...

Noke Bio: Richard - Van One's Foundation Runner

Image
This is Richard. We call him Cali.  ...because he lives in California. (We're both brilliant and original...) Cali has run, like, 1 billion marathons. (Or maybe he's going for numbers 20 and 21 this fall, but still...if you've run a marathon you know that there is little difference between 1 and 1 billion...)  He ran his first full marathon at the age of 15 in Anchorage, Alaska. Which I find odd. Because cold. Plus, at 15 I was just trying to make it through Algebra class. But to each his own. He literally just ran his 100th half marathon. And who doesn't love a good half marathon. If I could math, I'd offer you some fun mileage facts about running 100 half marathons. But...no. Cali has been running since he was a child, but has never had the opportunity to run a Ragnar Relay. So, of course, when random Chad Zahner suggested he travel to the other side of the country to spend two days locked in a van sweating away miles with a bunch of str...
