SLR Jan 18 - Capital Crescent Trail

Hello Saturday Runners!

This Sat, Jan 18 we will be running an out and back on the Capital Crescent paved trail.  The good news is that since its an out and back you can easily adjust for any mileage needs.  The bad news? There is no bad news since you'll be out running!!

I put down 14 miles but here are some turn-a-round options:

  • 5 miles out: marker 6.5 (water fountain)
  • 6 miles out: marker 5.5
  • 7 miles out: marker 4.5 (River Road)
  • 8 miles out: mile marker 3.5. This is at Barnes & Noble. Water fountain just beyond. Then go through Wisconsin Ave. tunnel, then trail becomes gravel.
  • 10 miles out: marker 1.5

Thank you Mary Ellen for our post-run drink work!  We are in need of drink volunteers for February (and beyond).  Please consider helping out if you regularly run with the group and haven't volunteered in ages (or ever - you know who you are Wink)  Its not a lot of work and the club reimburses our expenses.  Email SLR@dcroadrunners.org if you can help.

Happy Running!

-- Erik
