SLR April 30 - Upton Hill

Hello Saturday Runners!

This week we will be running the Upton Hill (additional map here) route, for an out & back of about 12 miles. For a shorter run, you can turn around at any point earlier (though you'll miss the fun of the big hill at the turnaround!) to get your target distance. If you're looking for anything beyond 12 miles, we'll be on the Custis Trail, which you can use to connect to the W&OD Trail and go as long as you like.

Thanks this week go to Rochelle Basil for post-run beverages! We're going to need more post-run volunteers after next week, as well as mid-run volunteers starting in June, so please start thinking ahead and let me know how you'll be able to help. Up-to-date future volunteer needs and a route schedule are always posted on our web page, and you can email me to schedule your slot. For mid-run beverages, any week you're able to volunteer is appreciated, but for post-run beverages it's best if you can cover two (or more!) consecutive weeks at a time, to cut down on hand-offs of the bins. If you enjoy or benefit from the entirely volunteer-supported beverages at our runs, please do your part - it's easy, and you'll be reimbursed for all expenses.

Happy running!

Mike
