SLR September 21 - Ross Drive

Hello Saturday Runners!

This week on September 21, we will be running the 14.5 mile Ross Drive route (downloads: cue sheet and GPS). If you'd like to either shorten or lengthen the route, you can either add or remove 3.5 miles by skipping or adding a second loop of Beach Drive to Ross Drive. Though it will heat up some later in the day, we're finally getting a taste of fall this Saturday morning with sunny skies, dew point in the 50s, and morning temperature around 60 - so it should be a great day for a long run on my personal favorite of the many SLR routes we have in rotation!

Thanks this week to Kyle Edgerton for post-run drinks, and Matt Hoffman for mid-run drinks! Mid-run drinks will be located at Pierce Mill, which you'll pass twice at about 5 and 9.5 miles. We're now completely covered for drinks through all runs currently on the schedule, so thanks to all the volunteers! If you can help with post-run drinks in November and beyond, please feel free to send me an email to pre-claim your slot before I post an extended schedule. 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.

Coming up next week on 9/29, DCRRC will be putting on the National Capital 20 Miler and 5 Miler races. This is a great tune-up race for fall marathons, and your last opportunity to volunteer for the Bunion Derby. For complete info and registration, follow the link above.

Happy running,

Mike
