SLR Apr 6 - Upton Hill Route

Hello Saturday Runners!

 

This Sat, April 6th, we will be running the Upton Hill route, listed at 12 miles - check the route map for details.

Please thank Jeff Austin for our post-run drinks! As always we seek drink volunteers for the coming months. Its not a lot of work and DCRRC reimburses your expenses. Email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out.

If you want less than 12 you can always turn around early (its basically an out and back).  At 4.75 miles in (and again at 7.5 miles) there are restooms/water next to Westover Park in case you need a pit-stop.  If you want more miles you can do the bridge-to-bridge route (Key Bridge, Georgetown, Rock Creek park trail, come back via Memorial bridge) for about 4 extra miles.  That or go do a loop around Roosevelt Island to tack on about 2 more.

Don't let the name fool you, you are only running uphill 1/2 the time!
