Hello Saturday Runners!
This Sat, April 21st, we will be running the Glover Archbold Panda route. The base route is 13 miles, or you can cut some off to make it more like 10 miles. Shorter than that and you’ll probably just need to make it an out-and-back. Please be advised we are once again meeting in the park across the street from Iwo Jima at 1300 Arlington Blvd.
Congrats to all of our club members who made it through an exceptionally hot Boston Marathon last week! Way to tough it out! Also, we could still use volunteers for the DC Roadrunner beverage stop at the GW Parkway race tomorrow. Please RSVP to Brian Danza at Brian@dcroadrunners.org.
Please thank Rick DeSaussure for more excellent post-run beverage work. The weather is starting to heat up and we need more drink volunteers – May is starting to creep up and we still don’t have anyone signed up for drinks. Email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out.
Directions: follow prompts in cue sheet online, check map too.
To shorten: At mile 4.0, take a right on Massachusetts Ave. Take Mass Ave all the way down to Sheridan Circle, bear right on the circle, take right on 23rd St NW to exit, take slight right onto Q st, and then immediately left back onto 23rd St. Take this up to P St, right on P St NW. Soon you will pass over the Rock Creek Park trail, then take a left to rejoin Rock Creek Park trail. Take back to Memorial bridge, end at Iwo Jima. Makes it like a 9.5 mile run. Or make it an out and back on the way out for less than that.
To lengthen: after the Panda portion you can take Mass Ave Northwest and rejoin the original route around mile 4.0. Should add like 4.5 miles. More loops means more Pandas!!
