The map is interactive. By clicking the route title, you can see mile markers and notations we have placed on the map.
Notes: This weekend is supposed to be in the 30s with a 30% chance of snow (lees than an inch). Dress appropriately. Gloves, mittens, warm socks, hats and turtlenecks are a wise choice. Consider wearing tights as a base layer with wind pants overtop. Also, layer and wear something up top that blocks the wind. Everyone should also, start bring a water bottle for after their runs if they have not started to do so already. For after the run, have a change of clothes and plan on refueling with something warm within 30 minutes. (Soup, cocoa, hot food).
ALSO: We have a group on Map My Run if you are interested http://www.mapmyrun.com/community/groups/468126395793138357
Please email Steve Cobb or Varinka Barbini if you have questions about the run.
Each week you all impress me more and more. I am so proud of all you accomplishments so far. We have had lots of firsts, personal records, and new distances acheived. Keep up the great work. I am happy to be a part of your journey. You are almost half way to race day! Take a minute to reflect on what you have accomplished so far, and evaluate it.
