EVERYONE COME OUT TO RUN TOMORROW! The sun is up very early now, so I have change the start time to 6:30 for now. We will probably start to go even earlier as the summer heat builds up. We are meeting at the Harris Teeter lot as normal. If this is your first run, we park beside the post office building. Just look for a bunch of people wearing "short-shorts". . . that will be us.The routes are 6 and 9 mile options. I know many of you are ahead of this with your training right now. You are welcome to do more, but do be mindful that you are about to start a long hot training program. Giving your body a "fresh start" is not a bad idea.
Run Details:
- Where: Saturday, 6:30 am @ Harris Teeter
- Supported: Yes - at the tracks
- Weather: Forecast
- Routes: 6 Miles, 9 Miles
PLEASE REVIEW THE ROUTES. These are roads that we have done many times, but we are going in a reverse order. To view the written directions, click on "Tools" and then "Route Notes". You can copy-and-paste these, and then print them if needed.
Fluids will be at the tracks. Both routes only hit the fluids once. If you need more, please bring a bottle to carry with you. We got a break in the weather. It looks like it will be 64 and 69 when we finish. This should make for some pretty comfortable running.
We will probably take five minutes to meet everyone before we head out on the roads. Please post a comment (members or non-members) to let me know you are coming. This way I can mix the correct amount of fluids. Post your pace as well, so people will know who they can run with. Remember, weekends are long/slower training runs. Don't feel like you need to impress anyone running a fast pace. . . just come out and enjoy a run!
I plan on being there and running at least 9 miles at an 8:30ish pace.
ReplyDeleteMichael,
I'll bring my water cooler to put at the tracks.

This will be my first time running with the club.I am a little bit nervous! I will be there and running just 4 miles at a 10ish pace.

ReplyDeleteMisty
I'll be there for 6 +. I rolled my ankle the other night running in the dark (really intelligent). My pace should be 10ish as usual.
ReplyDeleteArthur

ReplyDeleteKevin

ReplyDeleteApril don't be nervous. It's just the RMEC. Misty and I are planning to do 10 at our usual slow, talking pace.
ReplyDeleteElaine
We plan to run 6. 8:30 pace.
ReplyDeleteAbraham
I plan to be there for 4-6 miles. Approx 10 min pace with some walk breaks.
ReplyDeleteI think either Ted or I will be there to run (our first run with RMEC), but don't wait around for us. Not sure, but guessing it I would run 10:00-11:00 pace for the longer route. Ted would move a little faster than that. Looking forward to getting to know everyone.
