On Sunday, August 20, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation, Meadow Lot, ready to run the Meadow 4×8 Challenge. The entire Challenge starts at 5:00 a.m. but you can start whenever you want, including 8:00 a.m. This course consists of a series of 4-mile (approximate) clockwise loops in the Rez that can be completed within an hour. At 5:00 a.m., start with the orange loop, then work our way in a clockwise pattern hitting the green and then yellow loops. At 7:00, it’s time for the blue loop. At 8:00, start with magenta for a 4-mile run then gray for 8 miles. Feel free to improvise and combine magenta and gray into a longer loop. Total distance for all loops would be just over 50k but you can stop whenever you want. Cobweb Crew starts at 5:00; Early Risers at 7:00.
I’ll be out this weekend and I know a number of you are running Fahnestock so attendance may be lighter than usual. No worries, maps will be provided.
Rookie Runners start at 7:00 for a shorter distance and easier pace.
