Hello Saturday Runners!
This Sat, May 18th, we will be running the Arlington Triangle Route, listed at just over 16 miles. There is an option for 12 miles (below), shorter than that and you'll just have to make it an out and back. Check the cue sheet and map if you need to.
Please thank Rick DeSaussure for our post-run drinks! As always we seek drink volunteers for the coming months. Its not a lot of work and DCRRC reimburses your expenses. Seriously everyone, the need for drinks is about to get real. We need post-run beverage volunteers every month (no one on deck for June, July or August) and once the weather heats up in June we will be needing mid-run drink volunteers (one per week). If you run regularly with the group you should be helping out - its all member supported so lets keep each other going all summer long! Email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out with any beverage needs.
12 mile Option: If you would like 12 miles, you can do a "loli-pop" loop utilizing the 4 mile run trail. About 6 miles in while running on 4 Mile Run, take Mt. Vernon Ave south across the River, then hop back on the 4 mile run trail to head back. Take Route 1 North to continue on 4 Mile run then return via the Mt. Vernon Trail.
Might want to bring some shades if its sunny out, I seem to recall having the sun in my eyes a lot on this one. Enjoy this great running weather!
