SLR August 16 - RFK Loop

Hello Saturday Runners!  

This Saturday, August 16, we will be doing the RFK Loop, listed at 12.5 miles.  The route has a return over Memorial Bridge, so you can add on by coming back over the Key Bridge (1.5 extra miles) or adding loops of Roosevelt Island after coming across Memorial.  

Thanks to Kevin Cunningham for more great post-run beverages this month!  Unfortunately we don't have a mid-point water stop this week, but luckily there are a few water fountains along the route (at the WWII Memorial, Washington Monument, the Capitol, Lincoln Park).  We do need both mid-point and post-run beverage volunteers after late August; please visit the SLR page to see what current needs are and email SLR@dcroadrunners.org if you can help.  The club reimburses all expenses and everyone who runs will appreciate it!

Hopefully this unusually nice summer weather will continue; it looks like it may be in the low 70s and sunny on Saturday.  

I'm excited to be following Erik after his three years coordinating SLR (thanks again, Erik!).  See you on Saturday - have a great run!

Emily
