Hello Saturday Runners!
Our route this week is 13 miles along the Southeast DC loop (downloads: cue sheet and GPS). If you'd like to shorten the run while still starting off along the same route as the group, one way to do this is to hop onto the Metro back to Rosslyn. You can choose between a couple stops along the way - Potomac Ave is at about 8 miles, or Smithsonian is at about 10.5 miles. Both Coach Jonny and I are out of town this week, but you're in good hands this week with Coach Big Guy who will be there to kick off the run!
Thank you Bobby Beasley for post-run drinks this week, and Shawn & Katherine Zeller for mid-run drinks! This week's mid-run drinks will be located on Anacostia Dr. near the rec center, at about 7 miles into the run.
We are in need of more volunteers in September and beyond for post-run drinks as well as mid-run drinks for a number of weeks throughout the saeason, 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
