Hello Saturday Runners!
On July 2 we will be running the Pentagon - Army Navy route (additional map here) for 12 miles. If you'd like to lengthen the route, you can either run a lap or two (about 1.25 miles each) of Roosevelt Island on your way back, or add as much mileage as you need on the Mt. Vernon Trail. For a slightly shorter run, you can head directly back toward Iwo Jima from Memorial Bridge rather than going via Rosslyn, which will be about one mile less.
Please thank this week Enjua Rau for our post-run drinks, and Clara Lau for our mid-run drinks! Mid-run drinks should be on the Four Mile Run Trail near the end of Eads St., and note also that there is a brand-new recently opened water fountain on the Mt. Vernon Trail near the airport which you can use as well.
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
