SLR July 7 - Capital Crescent

Hello Saturday Runners!

Your route this week is out and back on the Capital Crescent Trail (downloads: cue sheet and GPS) for a recommended distance of 14 miles. You can easily modify this route to be any distance you like, but just turning around at your own desired halfway point for the run. If you're going for 14 miles, the turnaround point at 7 miles will be just after the overpass at River Rd. I'm again out of town this weekend, but Coach Jonny will be there to get the run started for both SLR and MTP!

Thank you James Sledge for post-run drinks and Miguel Matta for mid-run drinks! Miguel will be located along the Capital Crescent Trail, roughly 6 miles from the starting point.

We are in need of more volunteers in August and beyond for post-run drinks as well as mid-run drinks including next week, so please let me know if you can help with either of these. The weekly schedule of volunteers, routes, and distances is always kept up-to-date on the SLR web page, and you can email me any time to book your slot. For more info on how volunteering works, please first see the SLR FAQ, and after that send me an email if you'd like any additional details.

Happy running,

Mike
