This Saturday, August 24th we will be running the Loops of Battery Kemble route, listed at 16 miles (but easily modified for more or less). I'll be out but have a sub starting things off.
Please give a big thank you to Eunja Rau for our post-run drinks, and to Paul and Christine Westcott for mid-run drinks this weekend. As always we seek drink volunteers for the coming months. Drinks are in pretty good shape but there are still a few mid-run drink dates that need volunteers. Its not a lot of work and DCRRC reimburses your expenses. Email slr@dcroadrunners.org if you can help out.
If you wish to modify the route:
- Don't run any loops, turn around when you get to the base on Chain Bridge Road and come back, makes it 13.5 miles total.
- Only run one loop around Battery Kemble, makes it 14.75 miles total.
- Run two loops through Battery Kemble park for the 16 mile run.
- Each loop is 1.25 miles, so you can add more loops for more miles.
