This Sat, Dec. 29th, we will be running the Normanstone Hill Klingle Route. The listed route mileage is 13 miles. Please check the cue sheet and map for clarification.
Please thank Miguel Cuya for our post-run drinks! We could always use more drink volunteers for the Winter and Spring months - email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you would like to help out.
Mileage Options:
11: Cuts off big top of loop by taking Cleveland Ave NW back early. After mile 6.0, after you turn right on 34th Street, run a few blocks and then take a right on Cleveland Ave NW. At about 6.75 miles veer left, staying on Cleveland Ave, street becomes Calvert St. NW. Soon take a right on Shoreham Drive NW down to re-join Rock Creek Trail going south, right on trail to head back to Memorial Bridge, return to Iwo Jima area from there.
13: Do route exactly as written in cue sheet, taking Rock Creek trails back to Memorial bridge the first time.
17: Do route as written but do a 2nd loop by taking the dirt/gravel trail now on your right, up Normanstone Hill, down Klingle, and then take Rock Creek trails back to Memorial Bridge.
Happy Running! Its getting cold out there so dress warm (but not too warm).
