This Sat, June 8th, we will be running the 4 Mile Run park to Pentagon route, listed at 11 miles. I'll be out but have a sub starting things off. Don't forget the 7:00am start time which will continue all summer long!
We need mid-run beverage volunteers!! Its starting to get hot out there and we do not have anyone on deck for mid-run beverages this week. Its everyone's duty to help out at least once. Here's how: Go to The SLR Website, look under "Summer Mid-Run Beverages", pick a date that does not yet have a name in parentheses after it, email slr@dcroadrunners.org with that date. I'll coordinate with you on when and where to be and the club will reimburse your expenses. If everyone helps out only 1 day, then we all will have mid-run drinks to keep us cool all summer long!
Please thank Franco Ordonez for our post-run drinks this week! As always we seek post-run drink volunteers for the coming months (August is still wide open). Its not a lot of work and DCRRC reimburses your expenses. Email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out.
If you need MORE miles you know the drill! Continue on Mt. Vernon and come back through Rosslyn for around 1.5 extra miles, do the "bridge to bridge" run (~4 extra), or run down to the Capital Building and back (~6 extra).
Its a pretty flat route so its a good one for tempo's or race pacing - might want to wear sunglasses or a hat, I seem to remember having the sun in my face a lot. Stay Cool!
