Hello Saturday Runners!
Our route on Saturday April 4 will be the Mt Vernon - Hains Point T for 14 miles. I scheduled this route hoping to catch the cherry blossoms around Hains Point, but it might still be a little early unfortunately. On the other hand, those of you running the Cherry Blossom Ten Miler the following week are predicted to see peak bloom! To shorten this route, you can turn around sooner on Mt Vernon (the out/back section as-is from the 14th St Bridge to Four Mile Run covers about 5.5 miles), or to add about 1 mi you can do a partial lap around the Tidal Basin (a la Water Route).
Thank you Miguel Cuya for stepping up on post-run beverages for April! However, we still need a volunteer to fill in next week April 11. The month of May and beyond also need to be covered, so please volunteer if you plan to be at SLR for at least two consecutive weeks. Visit the SLR page any time to see current needs, and email if you can help. This is an easy way to support your fellow runners, and the club will reimburse all expenses.
Happy running!
Mike
