August 29 @ 7:00 am – 9:00 amOn Saturday, August 29, at 7:00 a.m., meet at the Leon Levy Preserve lot, 2-50 Smith Ridge Rd, South Salem, NY (that’s the closest Google Maps will give me), ready to run a convoluted course of around 7 miles and using every trail in the park including the Levy East half mile extension. Early Risers start at 6:00 for an additional 4 miles.
Note that the pin above may not be entirely accurate and we will not be climbing any of the ruins. Download the live map in advance so you can test your navigating skills.

Just a reminder, it’s tick season. Shower and check your skin over after runs, use a bug spray with Deet on your shoes, legs, and arms before a run, and I recommend light-color socks or calf sleeves that have been sprayed with Permethrin, Picaridin, or other bug repellent and allowed to dry. An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of doxycycline. For more information about tick bites and tick removal, visit cdc.gov.
Help keep the trails clear by reporting downed trees or other conditions that the park should know about.
