Hello Saturday Runners!
Happy Thanksgiving! If you're looking for a post Turkey Trot (see below for more TT info) on Saturday the 30th, this week we'll be going 11.5 miles to Four Mile Run Park (downloads: cue sheet and GPS).
We will need more volunteers for post-run drinks starting in only two weeks, so please let me know when you can help. I've now posted a full weekly schedule that will take us all the way through the winter and into spring marathon training season. The weekly schedule of volunteers, routes, and distances is always kept up to date on the SLR web page, and you can email me any time to book your slot. For general info on how volunteering works see the SLR FAQ or send me an email if you have any other specific questions.
One last reminder: Tomorrow, DCRR and the Del Rey Business Association will be holding the 44th annual Alexandria Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving morning, November 28, at 9:00 am. This five mile race is one of our club's biggest events of the year, so start your turkey early on Thanksgiving morning and then head over to George Washington Middle School in Del Rey to either run or volunteer. As the region's premier Turkey Trot, the totally flat course will be equally friendly to elite level competition, PR chasing, strollers, families, dogs, and costumes! For more info and registration, please go to alexandriaturkeytrot.com.
Happy running,
Mike
