Hello Saturday Runners!
This Saturay, Oct 19th, we will be running the 4 Mile Run Park to Pentagon Route, listed at about 11 miles. This should be a good distance for your final long run before Marine Corps Marathon. If you need more, continue to Roosevelt Island (now open!) and back through Rosslyn for an extra couple of miles.
Thank you to Flora Arabo for our Post-Run Drinks!! We are in need of Drink Volunteers for November and December. Please consider volunteering especially if you have not done drinks before. Its not a lot of work and the club reimburses your expenses - email SLR@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out.
I have posted SLR routes through Mid-December on the SLR webpage - we will be dialing back the mileage a bit after marathon season before we ramp up again for spring races.
In club news: We NEED volunteers for the DC Roadrunners Club water stop at Marine Corps Marathon! Come support your fellow runners and the local running community while getting our club name out there. Please email volunteer@dcroadrunners.org for more info!
We are also having a Fall Happy Hour to celebrate the season and congratulate all of our fall racers! Meet us at Hill Country for free food, good drinks, and lots of fun! At Hill Country Barbecue, 410 7th St. NW (Chinatown), on: Thursday October 31, 6-9 p.m. Contact mary@dcroadrunners.org with questions.
Yay! The Government is back open! for now...
Happy Running!
