 There is one route this week:

 Beginners & Intermediates:

 Both Groups will head out on the Brighton trail and turn Right onto Polo Club.  Runners will travel on Polo Club and make a left onto Deer Haven.

Deer Haven ends and turns in to Walnut Hill Road at the dead end.  Continue on Walnut Hill to the approx. 5.6 mile turn around (Winchester Road) or to your desired turn around.  GU shots will be distributed prior to the run.

Bring a sports drink for your long run in a botter you can run with. You will want a 50/50 ratio- sports drink to water. Enjoy your run!

 Notes:

PreRun Breakfast: Whole grain carb with Peanut butter & jelly; or cereal w/ soy milk; or breakfast bar.  Drink water and coffee at least 30 minutes before the run to prevent toilet stops and cramps.

 This weekend is supposed to be WARM, in the 40-50s. Dress appropriately.

Shorts and shirts with a long sleeve layer on top.  You can always strip down after you are warmed up. 

For after the run, have a change of clothes, water bottle and plan on refueling with something warm within 3:carbs-2:proteins-1:fat ratio of food. 

ALSO: We have a group on Map My Run if you are interested

  1. I did not make it this week and I am not happy with myself. I will make it next Sat. I am determined to make it. I want to get a program together.

  2. What a fantastic day to run it was! I am so happy with the group runs. 10 miles was a PR for distance for me!

  3. I didn’t make it to Saturday’s run, but I had a PR yesterday of 9 miles! I’m trying to play catch up with all of you super stars!
