SLR Aug 3 - Piney Branch

Hello Saturday Runners!

 

This Sat, August 3rd (wow, its August already?!), we will be running the Piney Branch loop listed at 14 miles. Check the cue sheet and map for directions.  It won't be super hot but the humidity will be back so please take it easy out there and stop at water fountains if you need to. I'll be out at a race but have a sub starting things off.

Please thank Maureen Atkins for our post-run drinks, and Adam Hanzalik will be providing our mid-run drinks! Additional drink volunteers are always appreciated - its not a lot of work and the club reimburses your expenses. Email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out. All the needs are posted on the SLR website; we still need post-run and mid-run drink volunteers for August and September.

Route is 14 miles as-is. 

To lengthen it, you can come back via Memorial Bridge (instead of Key Bridge), this should add about 1.5 miles.

To shorten, you'll probably just have to make it an out and back.  If you turn around on the bridge that passes over Piney Branch and head back this makes it an 11 mile run.

Run Strong and stay Cool!
