SLR January 12 - Piney Branch

Hello Saturday Runners!

Our route this week will be the 12 mile loop to Piney Branch (downloads: cue sheet and GPS). For a shorter route covering similar ground I'd suggest going out & back on Rock Creek Park, or to extend the route to 16 miles you can continue up 16th St past Military Rd to Joyce Rd, returning via Beach Drive or Ross Drive. There's some snow in the forecast for this weekend, but at this point it is't predicted to start until Saturday afternoon, so it isn't expected to have any impact on SLR.

Thank you Emily Riley for post-run drinks this week, and Jonny Pellish for filling in for me! We will need more volunteers after next week, so please let me know when you can help. 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 general info on how volunteering works see the SLR FAQ or send me an email if you have any other specific questions.

Happy running,

Mike
