RUN RSVP: Saturday 06/28

There seems to be some new life back in the RMEC! I have seen a surge of RMEC runners signing up for the Medoc and Ford's Colony, so I know you are reading the blog. Now it is time to wake up early and hit the roads! I realize this weekend leads into 4th of July, but I have high hopes for a big crowd at the Teeter at 6:30 tomorrow. I will bribe you with food if we have 10 people RSVP.

Run Details:

  • Where: Saturday, 6:30 am @ Harris Teeter
  • Supported: Yes - Fluid at Tracks
  • Weather: Forecast
  • Route: 6-mile route; 9 mile route below.

I created two new routes from scratch that make it so everyone will be sharing the same roads, and hopefully have runners nearby at all times (slower and faster runners). I am going "backwards" from normal and therefore not beginning on Candlewood. The route has two portions when you go to the end of a street and come back out, so you will be passing runners multiple times in the run.


If six miles is too long for you. . . we still want you to come out and run! These are easy to cut miles, just don't go to the end of the dead-end sections. If nine miles is too short, you can add in distance. I intentionally made it shorter this time however, so we could all finish close together and have some bagel and doughnuts.

To view the written directions, please click on Notes, on the map page. You can copy-and-paste these and print them if needed. Please RSVP by posting a comment, and let us know your estimated pace.

    I'm up for a few miles, as long as it's breezy, mild, and in the low to mid-60's.

    Oops, I thought I was still in Wisconsin. . ...

    Lace 'em up.
