I felt like we needed a change from the Harris Teeter routes, so I made a City Lake option. This is an eight mile route that starts by Chicos, and comes by my house at the halfway point for fluids. It also has a short portion on a dirt road which is kind of fun. There is a bathroom by Chicos, which is normally open.If you need more miles, run around Westhaven after you finish. If you need less miles, you can cut off two full miles by turning right on Old Mill just before mile-4. This will cut out the fluid stop, and put you on a more narrow road, but I have run it before without trouble. Just be careful.
Run Details:
- Where: Saturday, 7:00 am @ City Lake (by Chicos)
- Supported: Yes - at my house
- Weather: Forecast
- Routes: 8.25 Miles
The weather looks great. It will be warmer than it has been this week, but sill good running weather. At 7:00 it will be in the mid 60s, and it will just start to crack the 70 point at 9:00. Please post a comment with your pace and distance. I really hope if you are doing a weekend run you will join us. We are getting between 10-15 runners on most weekends, but are missing some familiar faces that used to be regulars.
Monday Option: There is also a group planning to run Medoc this Monday morning. If you would like to run Monday, please post a comment here as well. We can carpool from the Teeter if anyone is interested.
I'm going to run one loop Saturday at a 9ish pace.
ReplyDeleteI'm also going to run Medoc Monday morning...
I will do one loop also on Saturday....10ish pace. I may also do Medoc....will decide by tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteI plan to be there for the 8 mile loop at 10:00 pace.

Robin and I are running Saturday from the Teeter. I've been absent from the Saturday run for a few weeks and need familar ground to get back in the groove.
ReplyDeleteI am going to do 10 around 9 minute pace tomorrow. Dont know about Monday.
ReplyDeleteLevi Moore
Just curious... no commitment... but what are the plans for Medoc on Monday?
ReplyDeleteCan't be there for the Saturday morning run but I will be at Medoc Monday morning at 8am! Plan to do somewhere between 10-16 miles.
ReplyDeleteMedoc opens at 8am.
ReplyDeleteI can't leave RM until 8am, so I will be there around 8:30. Shooting for about 15 miles.
I am running Saturday and Monday. I prefer to get there at 8:00 am when the park opens.
ReplyDeleteRon, we can start on the bluff loop in the normal (clockwise) direction on the big loop. If you get there before we come out, take the trail in reverse. Be sure to take the little trail that cuts through to the campsites.
well now it looks now like i can get away earlier and can be at the park at 8am.
ReplyDeleteSo I am not moving till monday.....so 1 more week for me. Plus its so hard to say goodbye. Plan to do 10.

Xavier
Would like to run the 8-mile course Saturday at 11-ish pace.
ReplyDeleteI'm going to a funeral Monday morning so I can't make the run.
ReplyDeleteI'll most likely try to get a run in at Medoc Monday afternoon if anyone is interested in a later run.
ReplyDeleteok, last post...i promise.
ReplyDeletei got my miles in this morning, so i will not be running tomorrow.
