SUNDAY

On Sunday, August 20, at 8:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Michigan Road Lot when we run a new variation of the “Death Spiral” 50k—The Michigan Multiloop. The 8:00 a.m. run is the 8 mile orange loop on the map which we’ll run in a counterclockwise direction. That’s fun enough, I know, but if you want to turn this into a truly memorable experience, we’ll start at 4:45 a.m. for a full perimeter loop, returning at 8:00 a.m. and then continuing on to the 5, 3, and 2-mile loops in succession. If my math is right, that results in around 31 miles of awesome trails. For those arriving at 7:00 a.m. (or 3:45 a.m.), I’ve added a 4-mile pre-run loop as well.

SATURDAY

On Saturday, August 19, at 7:00 a.m., meet at Ward Pound Ridge Reservation Kimberly Bridge Lot and run the Kimberly Bridge 6/9.5 mile loop. The course starts down the wide blue trail but don’t let that fool you, it turns into the Rock Trail with plenty of twists and turns. I’ll be taking the day off so bring your own maps for this one.

A big congratulations to Joe Limone and Charlotte Dequeker for their finishes in Eastern States 100, to Joe Cloidt for pacing half the race, and especially to Joe Mo for finishing the Big Foot 200—206 miles, 5 days, 50,000 feet of climb. You all are amazing.

I hope to see you out there this weekend.

The Free Avenza Maps software now has a free trail map of the Reservation available here. I’ll make .kml files available as I can so you can load them as layer overlays. Now there’s no excuse to get lost.
