Long Run Saturday - Aug4th

Let's meet at the I&M Canal Bike Path. There is an 8 mile loop and a 3 mile loop - so with a little imagination you should be able to get in 16-20 miles.

It's going to be warm so let's start at 7:30 a.m. Runners that don't want to do a long, long run can show up at 8:30 and hit the 2nd loop with us. Or get there at 7:30 run a loop and hop in their air conditioned cars and drive off. Lot's of options!

The course is super flat like the Chicago Marathon. The miles are marked too which is good for pacing. Bring plenty of fluids.

Directions take 104th Ave. north to Archer avenue (that's about 2 miles north of Little Red Schoolhouse). Turn left on Archer Ave and pass the gas station on the corner immediately turn right and follow the signs down to the train station/bike path parking lot. Here's a map that may help. e-mail me if you still don't know how to get there.
